"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 ...

Technology Enhanced Learning Leading to Unique Stories (TELL US)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,

In many respects learning has been overtaken by the fundamental changes introduced by the information society and many Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) innovations have yet to make their way into the classroom despite the fact that society is demanding change in what and how we learn. This is the problem that the TELL US project seeks to mitigate by challenging learning providers in the form of ...

Collaboration to Clarify the Cost of Curation (4C)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2015,

The Collaboration to Clarify the Costs of Curation (4C) project will help organisations across Europe to more effectively invest in digital curation and preservation. Making an investment inevitably involves a cost and existing research on cost modelling provides the starting point for the 4C work. But the point of an investment is to realise a benefit, so work on cost must also focus on benefit, ...
