Training in Multiscale Analysis of multi-Phase Particulate Processes (T-MAPPP) (T-MAPPP)
Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,
"Dry, wet and multiphase particulate materials constitute over 75% of raw material feedstock to industry. Despite their significance, many industrial particulate processes display unpredictable behaviour due to both their multiscale nature and the coexistence of different phases: this leads to undesirable losses in resources, energy, money and time. Considerable progress can be achieved using mult ...

Complex wetting phenomena (COWET)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
Static and dynamic wetting of solid surfaces by liquids is a focus of numerous theoretical, computational and experimental investigations. Most of the research and training activities are focused on the wetting of simple solids by one-component liquids. However, a wide variety of industrial processes mostly include wetting/spreading of complex multiphase liquids over heterogeneous, structured or ( ...

Taking imaging into the therapeutic domain: Self-regulation of brain systems for mental disorders (BRAINTRAIN)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
Our proposal is based on the idea that real-time functional neuroimaging can be used to train patients to regulate their own brain activity via neurofeedback training and thus modulate the brain networks of mental disorder, restore function, improve symptoms and promote resilience. We have brought together the core groups that have been instrumental in the development of methods for real-time func ...

Human Factors of Automated Driving (HFAuto)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
Road transport is an essential part of society but the burden of traffic crashes, congestion, and pollution is enormous. Highly automated driving (HAD) has the potential to resolve these problems and major car makers foresee that HAD will be technically ready for commercialisation within one decade from now. However, industry is ill-prepared to deal with imminent human-error and legal consequences ...

Symbiotic man-machine interactions in wearable exoskeletons to enhance mobility for paraplegics (Symbitron)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,
SYMBITRON targets a major technological leap for symbiotic man-machine interactions. In particular, the project results will markedly improve the lives of (partially) paralyzed persons through the development of a superior wearable exoskeleton. Such systems are designed to offer Spinal Cord Injured (SCI) patients the ability to walk and overcome obstacles in their daily life. To date, wearable exo ...

Engineering a vascularized and innervated tissue using a building block approach (PreVascIn)
Date du début: 1 août 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
The current ageing population is faced with an ever increasing shortage of donor tissue for the repair or replacement of damaged tissues. Tissue engineering is a promising strategy to cope with this shortage. However, even though tissue engineering has been an active field of research for several decades, the number of clinical successes is limited. This is often due to a lack of integration and s ...

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)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 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 ...
