Integrated Macro-Financial Modelling for Robust Policy Design (MACFINROBODS)

Start date: May 1, 2014, End date: Apr 30, 2017,

"During the global financial crisis and ensuing Great Recession, economists at policy-making institutions had little choice but to augment macroeconomic models with ad-hoc assumptions and adjustments in order to provide analysis and advice for policy makers. Our consortium’s proposal aims to move policy-focused macroeconomic modelling beyond this approach to the endogenous modelling of the dynamic ...

Cavitation bubble cloud dynamics and surface erosion in high pressure fuel systems for medium/heavy duty Diesel engines (CavFuelSystem)

Start date: Feb 16, 2014, End date: Feb 15, 2017,

The medium/heavy duty Diesel engine industry is facing new challenges for meeting the forthcoming emission regulations. Injection pressure reaching 3000bar combined with multiple injection strategies can drastically reduce the NOx/PM trade-off and allow use of less demanding aftertreatment systems for meeting the set legislations. At the same time, use of commercial Diesel engines is expected to d ...

Composites Evaluation in aircraft industry through Triplex IR imaging system (CompETe)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Composite structures behave differently under normal loads than equivalent metal structures. Fatigue and corrosion have proved to be much less prevalent in composites compared with metals. Subsurface damage can go undetected for long periods and result in sudden catastrophic failure, such as the crash of American Airlines Airbus a few years ago. The project aims to develop an advanced non-invasive ...

A Decision Support System incorporating a validated patient-specific, multi-scale Balance Hypermodel towards early diagnostic Evaluation and efficient Management plan formulation of Balance Disorders (EMBalance)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Human balance is achieved and maintained by a complex set of sensorimotor systems that include sensory input from vision, proprioception and the vestibular system (motion, equilibrium, spatial orientation); integration of the sensory input; and motor output to the muscles of the eye and body. Failure at the level of the sensory inputs or at the integration of the sensory information by the central ...

Automated Pollution Inspection Scanning System for Soil using a robotic vehicle (POLLINS)

Start date: Nov 15, 2013, End date: Nov 14, 2016,

"Currently, the detection of soil pollution is done by manual surveys which are inefficient, unreliable, time consuming and very expensive. The need of a better and low-cost technical approach, that would be able to assess contaminated areas before programing the required remediation actions, has become more intense due to public awareness for the environment.This project aims to develop a semi-au ...

Professionals and Parenthood in the Twenty-first Century (IdPSF)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

This project aims to contribute to a better understanding of work-life conflict and the negotiation of parenthood in professional service firms (PSFs) from a cross-national comparative perspective (France, Romania and the UK). These countries provide very different cultural and institutional settings and as work and parenting norms are culturally and institutionally shaped, conducting cross-nation ...

Creativity and Goal Modeling (CGM)

Start date: Sep 22, 2014, End date: Sep 21, 2016,

"The proposal will exploit the synergies between creativity analysis, and goal modeling and analysis techniques, developing methods, languages, analysis procedures, and tools which provide structured support for creative requirements analysis. Creativity techniques as applied to Requirements Engineering (RE) focus on finding novel and appropriate requirements, facilitating system and business inn ...

Road Pavements & Bridge Deck Health Monitoring/Early Warning Using Advanced Inspection Technologies (RPB HEALTEC)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2016,

The European Road Network is undoubtedly one of the most important land infrastructures in the EU. It is and will remain for the foreseeable future a crucial artery for Europe, both in economic terms, as it services the vast majority of goods traffic, and in social terms, as it does so for passenger travel as well.Maintenance is considered to be the most expensive function of a high-way operating ...

Optical Fibre based self-monitoring Motor Drives (OFS-MOTOR)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2016,

"Electrical machines and drives being developed within the Clean Sky programme are adopting novel, power-dense, circuit and electromagnetic topologies working close to the material limits and excited by non-conventional waveforms. This brings about requirements for increased health-monitoring and cooling demands for both motor and convertor and thus temperature and vibration monitoring are fundame ...

Approximate Solutions of the Determinantal Assignment Problem and distance problems (A-DAP)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Systems and Control provide a paradigm that introduces many open problems of mathematical nature. The Determinantal Assignment Problem (DAP) belongs to the family of synthesis methods and has emerged as the abstract problem formulation to which the study of pole, zero assignment of linear systems may be reduced. This approach unifies the study of frequency assignment problems (pole, zero) of multi ...
