European Prevention of Alzheimer’s Dementia Consortium (EPAD)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
Background:The secondary prevention of Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) is achievable if we can identify individuals at risk of disease progression defined by biomarker evidence of AD pathology and no or only minimal clinical symptoms and engage them in a standing adaptive clinical trial, of the highest quality, testing multiple interventions. To achieve this, EPAD will also provide the analytical infras ...

Reinforced Vegetation Numerical Evaluation of Slopes (REVENUES)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
Vegetation acts as a reinforcement for slopes due to the penetration of roots into the ground. Roots penetration is a time dependent phenomenon that is strongly connected to the hydrogeological condition of the slope and that interacts with soil properties. Roots reinforcement of soil is well documented and numerous formulae exist in literature. The reinforcement action is provided by roots penetr ...

Development of a novel method for rodent control (PIEDPIPERDA)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
The Piedpiper project (funded under the FP7-SME2011scheme) started in December 2011 with its aim being to transform the Pest Control industry. To date it has developed (ahead of schedule) a new transdermal toxin and a new Pest Control Device using an aerosol to deliver the toxin.With the EU ban on warfarins due to take effect in 2014 we believe that this project is not just viable but essential to ...

Multiscale Modelling of Landslides and Debris Flows (MUMOLADE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
"Landslides and debris flows are serious geo-hazards common to countries with mountainous terrains. The high speed and the enormity of debris mass make debris flows one of the most dangerous natural hazards. Debris flows are often triggered by landslides partially or completely mobilizing into debris flows. Globally, landslides cause billions of dollars in damage and thousands of deaths and injuri ...

"Innovative Multi-purpose off-shore platforms: planning, Design and operation" (MERMAID)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
"European oceans will be subject to massive development of marine infrastructure in the near future. The most obvious is the energy facilities e.g. offshore wind farms, exploitation of wave energy, expansion of electricity connections, and also further development and implementation of marine aquaculture. This will also lead to an increased need for marine infrastructure to support installation an ...

Future Deep Sea Wind Turbine Technologies (DeepWind)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
The hypothesis of this project is that a new wind turbine concept developed specifically for offshore application has potentials for better cost efficiency than existing offshore technology. Based on this hypothesis the objectives are: i)to explore the technologies needed for development of a new and simple floating offshore concept with a vertical axis rotor and a floating and rotating foundation ...

Attenuation of ground-borne vibration affecting residents near freight railway lines (CARGOVIBES)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2014,
"As pointed out in the White paper for European transport the aim of the European rail operators is to increase the market share of goods traffic from 8 % in 2001 to 15 % in 2020. The nightly time slots will play an important in this. Railway vibration annoyance and sleep disturbance in residential areas is a potential show stopper for this increase.Therefore the aim of Cargovibes is to develop a ...

Piedpiper (PIEDPIPER)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,
Rodents have always been a risk to mankind. Rats and mice carry over 70 diseases that can be transmitted to humans, they also cause economic damage to crops, buildings and infrastructure that runs into billions of Euro’s per year. The rat population of the world is expanding rapidly and our current control systems are just not effective. All of the current electro mechanical devices have a carbon ...

PARticle Systems: Training on DEM simulation for industrial and scientific applications (PARDEM)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2009, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2013,
"The overarching aim of the PARDEM project is to provide high quality training to a group of young researchers to work within and to further develop the multidisciplinary field of DEM computational simulation of granular processes. Granular materials are estimated to constitute over 75% of all raw material feedstock to industry. They also present many challenges for innovation and fundamental scie ...

Interplay of microbiota and gut function in the developing pig – Innovative avenues towards sustainable animal production (INTERPLAY)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2009, Date de fin: 31 août 2013,
"Low input farming occurs under non-SPF (specific pathogen free) conditions. The European ban on in-feed antibiotics exposes the piglets to a higher microbial environmental pressure. The postnatal priming of piglets with a diverse microbiota may affect the development of the piglet’s host-defense and gut functionality. By reversal, the piglets developing host-defense may affect the development of ...

Coordinated Asia-European long-term Observing system of Qinghai – Tibet Plateau hydro-meteorological processes and the Asian-monsoon systEm with Ground satellite Image data and numerical Simulations (CEOP-AEGIS)
Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2013,
Human life and the entire ecosystem of South East Asia depend upon the monsoon climate and its predictability. More than 40% of the earth's population lives in this region. Droughts and floods associated with the variability of rainfall frequently cause serious damage to ecosystems in these regions and, more importantly, injury and loss of human life. The headwater areas of seven major rivers in S ...

Policy Options to engage Emerging Asian economies in a post-Kyoto regime (POEM)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
"Developing countries are reluctant to make any binding commitment as their per capita emissions are low and climate abatement measures conflict with their main priorities on socio-economic development. The question is if there is a way to simultaneously provide sufficient energy (which is also the main source of GHG emissions), to support poverty alleviation and economic growth and achieve suffic ...

HYBRID INFORMATION PROCESSING (HIP)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2008, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2012,
Scaling quantum information processors beyond the present small-scale devices is challenging as communication between parts of the processor, single site addressability and scaling are dificult to reconcile. HIP addresses these issues with the experimental realization of elementary hybrid atom-photon devices, and the theoretical development of schemes for their integration on platforms capable of ...
