Cloud based Simulation platform for Manufacturing and Engineering (CloudSME)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

Simulation can significantly improve the competitive position of manufacturing and engineering companies by reducing their costs and resulting in more efficient development, production, procurement, logistics or financial processes. However, the take-up of simulation software by SMEs has until now been low due to high barriers of entry that include hardware prices, licensing costs and technical ex ...

Innovative, environmentally friendly nanophosphor down converter materials for enhanced solar cell efficiency that will reduce energy production costs and increase cell lifetime (NanoPhoSolar)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

The NanoPhoSolar project aims to overcome the limitations relating to the efficiency and performance of a range of photovoltaic (PV) systems by developing a transparent NanoPhosphor down converting material capable of absorbing Ultra Violet (UV) and short wavelength visible light and re-emitting in the more useful longer wavelength visible spectrum(range 525-850nm).This will enable the efficiency ...

Low-cost switchable reflective polymeric solar heat gain control films for energy-efficient smart-window applications (SOLARGAIN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

Buildings are a major end-user of European energy, representing 40% of energy consumption and 1,800 million tonnes of CO2 emissions. Improved energy efficiency within buildings is, therefore, a priority objective in enabling Europe to meet its Kyoto Protocol commitments. Whilst a desirable architectural feature enabling enhanced occupier comfort, windows are recognised as a key weak spot in the bu ...

Business Models for User Centred Products (MADE4U)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

Recent research results by one of the partners have shown that human beings display unique behaviour (visual strategy), in the way they look at objects. Thus it has been (2006) possible to create spectacles with Progressive Addition lenses which were personalized to a subject’s visual strategy, finding that they dimensionally improved overall user experience, practically eliminating the spectacle- ...
