Demonstration of integrated smart water supply solutions at 4 sites across Europe (SmartWater4Europe)

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

European water utilities face many problems related to their 3,5 million km’s of distribution networks. Large parts of water distribution networks have to be rehabilitated requiring investments of € 20 billion/year. Prioritization and optimization of investments is needed urgently. In many countries, water quality needs improvement in order to reduce health risks and resources for water production ...

Virtual Prototyping of Tactile Displays (PROTOTOUCH)

Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2017,

"It is estimated that touch screen module revenues will reach $23.9 billion by 2017. These user interfaces have become one of the most common input devices for digital media, e.g. in mobile phones and computers. Current devices incorporate relatively primitive vibrotactile haptic-feedback. The aim of PROTOTOUCH is to develop tactile displays with high fidelity haptic recognition, so that buttons w ...

Advanced Multidisciplinary Training in Molecular Bacteriology (AMBER)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"The advancement in life sciences has created a growing number of disciplines that are required to elucidate the increasingly complicated biological questions. This has led to an unsurpassed level of knowledge, but it has also resulted in a continuous specialization in PhD trainings, which makes the students less prepared for complex present day biological questions. To provide a better comprehens ...

Asymptotics of Operator Semigroups (AOS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

"The theory of asymptotic behaviour of operator semigroups is a comparatively new field serving as a common denominator for many other areasof mathematics, such as for instance the theory of partial differential equations, complex analysis, harmonic analysis and topology.The primary interest in the study of asymptotic properties of strongly continuous operator semi-groups comes from the fact that ...

The SAfer FUEL system (SAFUEL)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

"Fuel Systems (FS) are critical for aircraft safety. Fire, ice and system failures are typical safety hazards associated to FS. FS accidents, though only representing 2% of accidents/incidents, continue to be a recurrent concern, especially as: the complexity of FS escalades to cope with increasing needs, including more stringent safety requirements ; flight conditions evolve with new routes at hi ...

Incorporating Laughter into Human-Avatar Interactions: Research and Evaluation (ILHAIRE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

Laughter is a significant feature of human communication, and machines acting in roles like companions or tutors should not be blind to it. So far very limited progress has been made towards allowing computer-based applications to deal with laughter.ILHAIRE will lay the foundations of truly multimodal, multicultural laughter-enabled man-machine interaction, by associating experts of the different ...

Materials and Interfaces for Energy Conversion and Storages (MATCON)

Start date: Dec 15, 2009, End date: Dec 14, 2013,

"There is a consensus today that supplying a growing world population with energy is one of the biggest – if not the biggest – challenge mankind is facing in the 21st century. The reasons for this are numerous and are among others related to the observation that energy is critical to human development, including economic growth, equity and employment, and that fossil fuels – our current energy bac ...
