user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Development of large CFRP rotor blade components' (1994-1998) under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT Large wind turbines are expected to be more cost effective and have a higher efficiency. For these turbines low weight, stiff blades are preferred with thin, high lift airfoils. Stiff light-weight blades can be accomplished when carbon fibre reinforced plastics are used. Present material knowledge and usage and production methods result in relative expensive blades. The aim of the project is to enable the economical use of carbon fibres reinforced plastics (CFRP) by establishing material design data and suitable production and joint techniques. TECHNICAL APPROACH The following activities take place: - establishment of CFRP material design data  Material design values are established after selecting optimal 'wind turbine' laminates. Special attention will be given to increase the relatively low compressive strength. - development of a cost-effective blade root joint  Durable blade root connections will be developed, based on existing joint types, produced and tested. - evaluation of production methods  Existing CFRP manufacturing techniques are reviewed leading to recommendations and followed by pilot production of a re-designed tip shaft.. - assessment of blade and turbine costs  The influence of the amount of CFRP on the tip deflection and a cost assessment of the rotor costs and turbine costs for a hybrid or full carbon blade will be given. With the above the potential of large CFRP rotors will be evaluated in terms of performance and costs with reference to glass reinforced blades. EXPECTED ACHIEVEMENTS AND EXPLOITATION Due to an optimised manufacturing method for large blades, high quality blades can be produced with improved (compressive) strength. The establishment of material design data will enable higher material strength; together wit

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Re-building muscle from cultured satellite cells: Novel Approaches to improve myoblast transplantation'.

assistant: **Objectives**

On the short term: optimisation of myoblast transplantation techniques by enhancing their proliferative and migratory potential. On the long term: a) reconstruction or replacement by myoblast transplantation of damaged or missing muscle following accident, surgery and ageing and b) cure of muscle and non-muscle diseases through myoblast-mediated gene transfer.Despite the lack of success in human trials, it is generally felt that myoblast transplant holds such great potential in terms of its therapeutic applications that its optimisation should be strongly pursued. It is widely believed that rather than being intrinsically flawed, attempts at myoblast transplantation in human subjects were done prematurely, without a sufficiently thorough knowledge of the molecular and cell biological aspects of muscle regeneration. It seems likely that the key to overcome these failures will be found in autologous transplantation of satellite cells (either genetically modified or not) and in the identification and use of novel cytokines involved in muscle regeneration. Two of the crucial issues that need to be addressed are: 1) the generation of large numbers of myogenic cells, sufficient to replace a useful amount of muscle in the body, and 2) the promotion of their survival, proliferation and dispersal upon re-introduction.During the last year a new ligand-receptor pair (Scatter Factor / Met) that controls cell growth and motility, has been shown to be implicated in muscle development. Scatter factor (SF) also promotes re-entry of adult quiescent satellite cells into the cell cycle, and sustains their proliferation and motility during regeneration. One of the aims of this project is to perform basic molecular studies, both in vitro and in vivo (in the mouse), to better understand the

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Repression and the Escalation of Conflict' (RATE) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The objective of this project is to uncover and explain the escalation and non-escalation of repression and intra-state armed conflict by analyzing how characteristics of the government and its formal and informal security apparatus shape the dynamics of such violence, paying particular attention to the role of monitoring and accountability. RATE analyzes when and under what conditions what types of human rights violations lead to the escalation or deterrence of further repression and armed conflict. Although there has been substantial increase in research on civil war, we know surprisingly little about the dynamics that escalate armed conflict within country-borders and those that prevent an escalation and what role human rights violations and informal armed actors play in those dynamics. While civil wars are a relatively rare occurrence, repression and human rights violations are not. What can this tell us about the link between human rights violations and repression? What leads to the escalation of political violence, increasing the severity and breadth of repression? What hampers the escalation of repression into civil war? Does the avoidance of civil war come at the cost of increased repression? The proposed project produces new data on personal integrity rights and civil liberties, disaggregated by type, intensity, perpetrator, as well as time and space, and on pro-government militias to investigate the conditions under which repression escalates and how monitoring and accountability of formal and particularly informal armed actors affect these escalation processes. It analyzes whether particular human rights violations prevent the escalation of violence by compromising the personal security of the people living in that country.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'The first high performance gallium nitride wafers for mainstream power electronics' (2014-2020).

assistant: **Innovation**

As the world becomes digitalized, the need for more energy efficient, faster and better performing Electronic Components and Systems (ECS) becomes paramount. These ECS are fully dependent on the semiconductor materials within, currently over 90% silicon (Si)-based. Pure Si technology can no longer cater to the needs placed upon ECS for power electronics and RF applications and thus new semiconductor technologies based on gallium nitride (GaN) are being explored. GaN material properties make it the primary choice for future generations of energy-efficient, high performance power electronics devices, necessary to modernize the energy grid and allow for sustainable energy production and use. However, bulk GaN is prohibitively expensive and thus inaccessible to mainstream applications. The main approach to making the technology commercially viable, reducing its cost significantly, is growing GaN layers on other materials, such as Si. Today, this poses a major technical barrier: existing methods result in high defect densities in the GaN layers, offering a fraction of the efficiency of bulk GaN and therefore poor ECS performance. Switching to GaN-on-Si today thus offers very limited advantages. To harness the full potential of GaN in a commercially viable way, we, at Hexagem, have developed EleGaNt, a cutting-edge new method of growing GaN semiconductor layers of unprecedented quality on any substrate. EleGaNt is the first to deliver capabilities on par with bulk GaN at the cost of current market-available underperforming GaN-on-Si. Our patented EleGaNt growth method introduces a new era of semiconductor wafer tech for an energy efficient power and RF electronics market and has the potential to become the new silicon in the multi-billion power electronics industry, whilst al

user: Draft an impact statement for 'RRR-XAI: Right for the Right Reason eXplainable Artificial Intelligence', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Deep Deep Learning (DL) is a form of machine learning (ML) that enables computers to learn from experience and understand the world in terms of a hierarchy of concepts. This hierarchy allows a DL model to learn complicated concepts by building them out of simpler ones. A graph of these hierarchies would be many layers deep, and thus its name. A Deep neural network (DNN) is based on an artificial neural network model, and its core strength is that there is no need for human assistance to formally specify all the knowledge that the model needs. This makes DNNs represent the state of the art in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Despite their top performance and ubiquity of applications (from Healthcare to autonomous cars), DNNs suffer serious shortcomings. First, DNNs are considered black box models, i.e., with complex and opaque algorithms, hard to interpret and diagnose. Second, they suffer from bias, and the testing protocols for automatic recognition are not fair, as they learn patterns in the data that are not correlated to the output; e.g. they may focus on areas outside the lung in X ray images to predict the presence of COVID-19. Although DNNs outperform many other methods, they often are not right for the right reasons (RRR). RRR-XAI tackles this mismatch and bridges this gap through a tight integration of DL and symbolic AI, with the principal objective of making DL explainable. To achieve this I will follow the rationale behind XAI under the RRR philosophy and perform analyses to understand two types of phenomena that cause trouble in DNNs. Second, I will use: 1) Domain knowledge expertise as supporting evidence to explain a particular model output; 2) Neural-Symbolic computation to communicate the explanation of such phenomena in natural language. I will study two

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'NINE-AXIS INERTIAL SENSOR BASED ON PIEZORESISTIVE NANO-GAUGE DETECTION' (NIRVANA).

assistant: **Concept**

With the recent introduction of MEMS in consumer applications (mobile phone, gaming...) the market for low cost and low power consumption multi-axis inertial sensors has boomed over the last five years. These sensors have generated huge business opportunities, with $M.1900 revenues in 2009 at the MEMS level. Beyond consumer applications, there are many other growing mass market applications like IPTV remote control, sport or eHealth. For these domains, lower consumption, miniaturization, integration and ultimately lower cost of production are essential to address and dominate this market. The same applies for high end niche markets such as implantable sensors in medical field. To address these needs, NIRVANA project aims to develop a very low cost and very low power consumption 9-axis inertial sensor based on a new concept and technology using nano-scale detection means. The idea is to take advantage of the very high sensitivity and low impedance of silicon nano-wire gauge to optimize the dimensions and the integration of the sensor and to reduce the overall power consumption. At this end, innovative sensor designs, disruptive technology (mixing MEMS and NEMS technologies, and including packaging with TSV), and new electronics architectures will be developed in this project. The targeted goal is to validate the integration of 9-axis sensor based on nano-wire gauge detection, having a surface and cost 2 to 4 times less than the current commercial components and with power consumption 3 to 5 times lower. Special emphasis will also be put on the characterization and reliability of these sensors. To ensure the success of this ambitious project, a consortium has been established, with leading research groups (LETI, POLIMI, FhF-IIS) and key industrials partners: Two end-users

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'Development of an information technology tool for the management of european southern lagoons under the influence of river-basin runoff'.

assistant: **Concept**

The objective of the DITTY project is to develop the scientific and operational bases for a sustained and rational utilisation of the available resources in Southern European Lagoons, taking into account all relevant impacts from agriculture, urban and economic activities that affect the aquatic environment, by developing information technology tools tailored for these type of ecosystems. The development of reliable information tools requires that the underlying integrated model approach has been benchmarked across a wide range of environmental conditions that demonstrate the authenticity of the resulting river catchment-coastal lagoon ecosystem process description. The project thus put considerable emphasis on model validation and benchmarking as well as on detailed and realistic socio-economic assessment of management aptions, through a close participation of economists and stakeholders.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Technological Evolution of Synergy Between Physicochemical and Living Systems' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

We will develop artificial, technological evolution and use it to design functional ecosystems consisting of up to three forms of living technology, namely, artificial chemical life, living microorganisms, and complex chemical reaction networks for the purpose of improved treatment and cleanup of wastewater for energy generation. The goals of this project are i) develop a general, robotic platform, which by using artificial evolution can optimize the performance of a physicochemical or microbial system and its environment and ii) use the robotic platform to evolve improved microbial fuel cells in terms of robustness, longevity, or adaptability. The robot evolutionary platform will take the form of an open-source 3D printer extended with functionality for handling liquids and reaction vessels, and for obtaining feedback from the reaction vessels either using computer vision or task-specific sensors in real-time. The robot platform will optimize parameters such as the environment, hydraulics or real-time interaction with experiments (for instance, timing of injection of nutrients, removal of metabolic products, stirring, etc.) to maximize a desired functionality. Initially, we investigate processes such as fluid-structure-interaction driving bio-aggregate structure and in turn metabolic activity as well as the interaction of nanoparticles and bacterial cells by analyzing the outcome of the evolutionary process using state-of-the-art imaging techniques. We then seek to exploit synergies between these technologies to significantly improve the ability of the living technology, in the form of optimized microbial fuel cells, to cleanup wastewater. Overall, this is a cross-disciplinary project involving state-of-the-art chemistry, imaging, robotics, artificial life, microbiolog

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'CO-designing the Assessment of Climate CHange costs' (COACCH) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

COACCH will develop an innovative science-practice and integrated approach to co-design and co-deliver an improved downscaled assessment of the risks and costs of climate change in Europe, working with end users from research, business, investment, and policy making communities throughout the project. COACCH will advance the evidence base on complex climate change impact chains, assessing their market, non-market, macroeconomic and social consequences in the EU. It will integrate spatially-explicit impact models, macroeconomic models with subnational resolution, statistical downscaling techniques and innovative non-modelling approaches, covering market (agriculture, forestry, fishery, industry, services, energy, built environment, infrastructure) and non-market sectors (ecosystems, health). It will explicitly look at competitiveness and growth, as well as at the social and economic repercussion of major global climate change in Europe. COACCH will deliver new knowledge on the impacts and economic consequences of climate tipping points of major concern for Europe, and explore the new concept of climate-induced socio-economic tipping points, at European and national level. COACCH will advance the economic valuation of climate action, identifying short to long-term mitigation and adaptation policy under climate change, including extreme events and tipping points. It will compare the respective performances according to different criteria of decision making under uncertainty, reducing uncertainty around valuation. The project will also produce a new generation of climate damage functions accessible to various users. Finally, COACCH will use a wide range of innovative communication and dissemination activities, to promote easier access to the results and ensure the outreach

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Regulation of the expression of odorant receptor genes in mouse' (ORGENECHOICE).

assistant: **Innovation**

Odorant receptor (OR) genes form the largest family in the mouse genome: ~1200 genes spread over ~40 loci. Each olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) expresses one OR gene, from one allele. The mechanisms of OR gene choice remain elusive. We will execute five specific aims that are interconnected but independent. We will search for homeodomain genes that we can link functionally to expression of a subset of OR genes; we will define promoter regions for the eight OR genes that are solitary, not belonging to a cluster; we will look for organizational principles among the repertoire of second choices in OSNs that express first an OR locus without a coding sequence; we will characterize the phenotype of mice with a knockout of a novel regulatory element, the P element; and we will test the distance-dependence of the activity of this and a similar element (the H region) by transplanting it within the local genomic region. Guiding hypotheses are that promoter regions for OR genes are short and close to the coding sequence; that the conserved homeodomain and O/E binding sites in OR promoter regions have a fundamental role in OR gene choice, rather than in transcription after it is chosen for expression; and that the H and P elements are two of several similar regulatory elements that each operate in cis within a cluster. The approach is based on gene targeting and transgenesis by pronuclear injection. A multipronged strategy will be taken to assay OR gene expression, with βgal-reporter mice, in situ hybridization, custom Affymetrix microarrays for mouse ORs, quantitative, real-time PCR, and Nanostring molecular bar codes. Understanding OR gene choice will have implications for our understanding of the regulation of gene expression in the mammalian genome – particularly if new mechani
