Computational modelling of structural batteries (STRUBA)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2019,

Competition in consumer electronics has pushed the boundaries of technological development towards miniaturization, with weight/size limitations and increasing power demands being the two most stringent requirements. Although almost all the components of any portable device become smaller, lighter and more powerful by the months, electrochemical technology is far from presenting us with the ideal ...

Quantifying Uncertainty in Integrated Catchment Studies (QUICS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2018,

"The Water Framework Directive (WFD) is the most significant EU legislation concerning surface water management. Programs of Measures are required to ensure water bodies achieve a good ecological status. It is important to predict the impact of interventions on water quality. Man-made and natural processes control surface water quality, these are highly complex with a range of sources, transport a ...

ICT for Water Resource Management (Waternomics)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2017,

Climate change, increased urbanization and increased world population are several of the factors driving global challenges for water management. In fact, the World Economic Forum has cited "The Water Supply Crises" as a major risk to global economic growth and environmental policies in the next 10 years. In parallel, the United Nations has called for intensified international collaboration.To this ...

Nearshore Monitoring and Modelling: Inter-scale Coastal Behaviour (NEMO)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"The unprecedented growth of coastal communities has led to € billions worth of developments and infrastructure within the coastal zone. Therefore, future coastal hazards, which are likely to be exacerbated by climate change, will result in massive socio-economic and environmental impacts. To develop informed coastal management strategies to mitigate such adverse impacts, robust large scale, long ...

Development of recovery processes for recycling of valuable components from FPDs (In, Y, Nd) for the production of high added value NPs (RECYVAL-NANO)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment is considered to increase drastically in the coming decades. WEEE contains considerable quantities of valuable components used in high-tech applications that currently are not recycled. Europe needs to improve and develop Recovery, Recycling and Reuse of critical materials in order to avoid the dependency on imports, high prices and risk of supply imposed ...

Initial Training for Atmospheric Remote Sensing (ITARS)

Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

"This proposal brings together a group of universities, research organisations and high-tech companies from different disciplines (meteorology, geosciences, physics, electrical engineering, mathematics) with the aim to foster training and further development in the area of remote sensing of the atmosphere. The last years have brought a rapid development in instrumental techniques, i.e. lidar, rad ...

Advanced Technologies for the Production of Cement and Clean Aggregates from Construction and Demolition Waste (C2CA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

"The recycling of end-of-life concrete into new concrete is one of the most interesting options for reducing worldwide natural resources use and emissions associated with the building materials sector. The production of the cement used in concrete, for example, is responsible for at least 5% of worldwide CO2 emissions. On-site reuse of clean silica aggregate from old concrete saves natural resourc ...
