Modified cost effective fibre based structures with improved multi-functionality and performance (MODCOMP)

Start date: Apr 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2020,

Current technological demands are increasingly stretching the properties of advanced materials to expand their applications to more severe or extreme conditions, whilst simultaneously seeking cost-effective production processes and final products. The aim of this project is to demonstrate the influence of different surface enhancing and modification techniques on CF-based materials for high value ...

Erosion and Ice Resistant cOmposite for Severe operating conditions (EIROS)

Start date: Mar 8, 2016, End date: Mar 7, 2019,

In the wind power generation, aerospace and other industry sectors there is an emerging need to operate in the low temperature and highly erosive environments of extreme weather conditions. Such conditions mean current materials either have a very short operational lifetime or demand such significant maintenance as to render many applications either very expensive to operate or in some cases non-v ...

Improving the conservation status of the little tern in the UK through targeted action at the most important colonies (LIFE Little Terns)

Start date: Sep 2, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

Background The decline in the population of the little tern (Sterna albifrons) in the UK since the 1990s is a cause for concern. The principal threat to this shore nesting species is from human disturbance. After a decline between the 1930s and 1960s, the population recovered through protection and surveillance by wardens of breeding sites. However, in re ...

Semantics-driven Design through Geo and Building Information Modelling for Energy-efficient Buildings Integrated in Mixed-use Healthcare Districts (STREAMER)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

STREAMER is an industry-driven collaborative research project on Energy-efficient Buildings (EeB) with cases of mixed-use healthcare districts. Such districts are the best real examples of neighbourhood with integrated energy system consisting of mixed building types (i.e. hospitals and clinics; offices and retails; laboratories and educational buildings; temporary care homes, rehabilitation and s ...

Management of the SPA site of Andros Island to achieve a favourable conservation status for its priority species (ANDROSSPA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

Background The island of Andros has a great diversity of habitats, the most important of which is the alluvian forest of common alder (Alnus glutinosa), European chestnut (Castanea sativa) woodland and strands of white willow (Salix alba) and white poplar (Populus alba). There are many bird species endemic to Andros. Its rocky coasts host important nesti ...
