user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'The Ottoman Core: A Spatial Exploration of the Emergence of Ottoman Governance Practices' (OTTOMANCORE) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

The OTTOMANCORE project seeks to redefine the understanding of how the Ottoman Empire was governed during its much-debated formative period (14th16th centuries). It challenges the prevalent statist narrative in historiography that envisages Ottoman rulership as a top-down, preordained construct and proposes a novel regional perspective to examine governance practices from a spatially aware and actor-centered viewpoint. Leveraging a robust analytical foundation that assimilates information from a diverse array of Ottoman and Central European narrative and documentary sources, as well as archaeological data, the project explores the local mechanisms and socio-economic grounding of Ottoman governance. OTTOMANCORE proposes to deconstruct the essential constituents of governance and deanonymize numerous provincial stakeholders to unearth the grassroots of Ottoman rulership. The project is structured into three interlocking modules. The first is dedicated to developing innovative Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) models and automated data extraction from Ottoman sources. The second module delves into a complex geospatial analysis of diverse data, probing the local governance practices, landholding patterns, and socio-economic dynamics by examining several interrelated components: i) land regime; ii) settlement network; iii) population geography; iv) connectivity and communication; v) revenue distribution. The final module aims to synthesize these findings into a coherent spatial narrative, rearticulating the history of Ottoman governance from a regional standpoint. OTTOMANCOREs approach, blending history with cutting-edge technology, pushes the boundaries of Ottoman historiography and sets a new standard for empirical research. By challenging existing narratives and introduc

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Diesel engine matching the ideal light platform of the helicopter' (DELILAH) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The project will define the optimal turbocharged diesel engine and the integration studies to make use of the engine for the ideal helicopter platform. The positive results of the project will demonstrate a substantial potential for pollutant emission and fuel consumption reduction by powering light single engine category helicopter with this advanced diesel engine instead of a conventional small turboshaft engine. The study will consist of three major phases: I) Optimal Diesel Engine Specification, II) Engine/Rotorcraft Integration Study, III) Environmental Impact Analysis. The technical challenge is to obtain the power-to-weight ratio taking into account helicopter requirements such as reliability and TBO. An optimal diesel engine will be chosen by selection procedure, where ratings criteria will use performance, weight, size, fuel economy, emissions, multi-fuel capability, reliability, noise, technology, costs, integration, cooling, and drag. Engine configuration will be selected from the several types of engines which will be modelled and compared. Finally, the very small engine with the defined engine sub-systems will be designed. To solve the design problems, the applicant will use his experience, workforce and knowledge in applying held designing tools to design aircraft and automotive piston engines: CFD software (Fluent, AVL FIRE), CAD software (Catia v5, Patran Package), FEM software (ABAQUS, MD Nastran), object oriented modelling tools (AVL BOOST, Dymola Modelica, MD Adams). The project will predict many obstacles like vibration, noise, transmission chain coupling and torque oscillations, engine control and response. To solve these problems, the innovative ideas will be proposed to develop and analyze the highdimensional dynamics of the multi-body mechanical

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Development of the processes and implementation of the management tools for the extended user oriented shoe enterprise (EURO SHOE)' (1998-2002) targeting Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

EURO Shoe is a combined research and demonstration project aimed at a dramatic renovation of the concept of the shoe and of its production, based on the transformation of the first from a mass produced product to a mass customised one; this product evolution goes in parallel with a transformation of the footwear company into an extended and agile enterprise capable of handling the complexity that such a change in the nature of the product implies and of mastering the new challenges deriving from a direct involvement of the consumer in the design and manufacturing process of the shoe he is going to buy.Such a radical change in the product nature forces a complete revision of the processes that support the various phases of the product life cycle in a systemic view that is developed within the EURO Shoe project according to the model of the product - processes matrix leading to a research effort that touches all phases and their technologies.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Strong curvature corrections to General Relativity: consequences for astrophysics and for particle physics'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Formulated by Einstein in 1916, General Relativity (GR) passed many stringent tests, and is now accepted as the standard theory of gravity and one of mankind's greatest achievements. Nevertheless, most experiments can only probe the low-curvature regime, while the strong curvature regime remains essentially unexplored. Exactly in this regime the dynamics of black holes (BHs) and neutron stars (NSs) can sensibly differ from GR, with potentially observable effects. BHs are among the most exciting predictions of many gravity theories and play a key role in fundamental physics. BHs and NSs share two unique properties: they have an enormous gravitational field and they are very common in the universe. Thus, they are perfect testbeds to probe strong-field effects in gravity.Strong motivations exist to go beyond GR. These include singularity and quantization issues, as well as astrophysical issues related to the dark matter and dark energy problem. Assuming GR as the correct theory of gravity in the elusive strong-field regime, we are introducing a bias, which can affect astrophysical observations and our understanding of the Universe.The most promising way to investigate strong curvature effects is by detecting gravitational waves (GWs) emitted from compact objects. Predicted by Einstein in 1916, GWs still have not been detected due to their feebleness. This state of affairs may change in the near future, thanks to the GW observatories operating in Europe, USA and Japan.Our ambitious program to test effects beyond GR in BH and NS physics may have a profound impact in astrophysics and in fundamental physics. In particular we aim to:- Develop a general framework, in which all viable corrections to GR can be accommodated and investigate effects beyond GR by means of ""GW spectro

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'European Banking Union and Current Account Imbalances' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Financial liberalization and cross-border banking underpin a striking global trend: while creditor countries had net financial claims on debtors of 20% of GDP in 1980, by 2010 this had risen to 70%. In accounting terms, such international wealth re-distribution materializes via current account (CA) surpluses by creditors and deficits by debtors. Hence the interest in what drives such CA imbalances, their desirability, and sustainability. The recent Eurozone crisis brought further attention to the issue: Greece, Ireland, Portugal, and Spain all had unprecedented CA deficits in the run up to the crisis, and studies indicate that such high deficits helped trigger it. The MAIN OBJECTIVE of this project is to deepen understanding of the links between CA imbalances, cross-border banking and credit. Much of CA flows consist of purchase/sale of debt contracts between residents and foreigners, and since up to two thirds go through banks, the accounting link is clear. Unclear is the behavioral link: What motivates such flows and makes them very risky at times? This project’s novelty is to build a model of this behavioral link, focusing on the Eurozone. This main objective WILL BE ACHIEVED BY: - A new general equilibrium model featuring international risk-taking banks with potential externalities on the economy and which can amplify CA imbalances- A new database on banking indicators and macro-determinants of CAs- Model estimates using O2 and state-of-the-art empirical methods- Assessment of risk thresholds and welfare of regulatory policies- Scenarios for intra-Eurozone imbalances under the EU banking unionThis research is HIGHLY RELEVANT TO THE WORK PROGRAM because unexplained CAs expose countries to undetected risks, and studies on Eurozone CAs do not model bank behavior thus o

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Transformative Innovation for Climate Change Adaptation in the Danube Region' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

TiCCA4Danu proposes a novel and comprehensive transformative innovation framework to accelerate just climate change adaptation (CCA) at the level of cities and their surrounding administrative regions. In order to address the structural barriers for CCA implementation at the city-region level, TiCCA4Danu proposes a systems-level approach, which requires effective governance changes, introduction of directionality, and a different use of policy instruments favouring discovery and experimentation processes. TiCCA4Danu directly relates to the EU Cities- and Adaptation Mission frameworks and builds on the emerging literature discussing the opportunities and limitations to governing socio-technical change for addressing grand challenges, such as climate change, through novel transformative approaches. At the core of TiCCA4Danu's methodological approach lies the concept of place-based “Transformative Innovation Policy” (TIP), which postulates a systems-level change perspective in innovation policy. TiCCA4Danu aims at applying the theoretical TIP concept to the city-region level by linking TIP to “Local Green Deals” (LGD), an established instrument for sustainable transformation at the city level, and by complementing the LGDs with a novel approach for transformative CCA at the level of regions. With TIP facilitating wider and inclusive societal transformation, TiCCA4Danu features stronger involvement of vulnerable groups as well as stronger private sector involvement. TiCCA4Danu focussing its activities on four ""Anchor Cities"" and their surrounding regions in the Danube Macro Region, all constituting different bio-geographical regions, i.e.  Coastal, Mountain and Continental.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Light weight valves for high efficient engines (LIVALVES)' (LIVALVES).

assistant: **Concept**

There is a need to improve car engine efficiency and reduce fuel consumption in order to comply with Kyoto agreement on CO2 emissions reduction. This project aims at reducing CO2 emissions up to 10%, car engine noise up to 18 dB at 3000 rpm, fuel consumption up to 10%, and at recycling 100% of materials used. This will be achieved by developing new cost effective and reliable lightweight valves for gasoline engines, obtaining at least 50% of weight saving, and minimising the dynamic problems and the valve train power dissipation. Moreover, these valves will make possible the use of electromechanical valve actuation mechanisms that will further improve the engine efficiency.The expected results are:- a set of materials for light weight components, - new designs guidelines for light weight valves and cost effective manufacturing routes, - machining and coatings processes.The results could be extended to Diesel and CNG applications.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Comprehensive experimental and computational mechanical characterisation of metastatic vertebrae'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Lytic spinal metastases are frequent in cancer patients and can weaken vertebrae, increasing the risk of fracture and leading to spine instability.  Qualitative scoring systems are used by oncologists and orthopaedic surgeons to decide if the metastatic vertebrae need to be surgically treated. However these guidelines are not accurate for all those patients with middle-size lesions.  An accurate, quantitative and mechanistic computational model would improve the prediction of the risk of fracture in these patients.  However, such models need first to be validated against well-controlled expertiments in the laboratory. METASPINE will deliver for the first time a method to comprehensively understand the effect of the properties of bone lesions on the mechanical competence of metastatic vertebrae.In this project, lytic defects will be experimentally reproduced in the vertebrae, which will be tested under multi-axial loading conditions in order to evaluate the effect of the lesions on the displacement and strain fields distributions.  A combination of state of the art in situ mechanical testing, microCT imaging and Digital Volume Correlation will be used.  Simultaneously, subject specific clinical CT based finite element models of the metastatic vertebrae will be generated, validated against the experimental data, and used to simulate scenarios which cannot be reproduced experimentally.The applicant (Dr Marco Palanca) is a research fellow in the field of experimental spine biomechanics.  He will apply his experimental skills to optimise the sample preparation, and mechanical testing.  Moreover, the supervision, mentoring, and training provided by the host organization (University of Sheffield, Dr Dall’Ara and Integrative Musculoskeletal Biomechanics group) on imaging and su

user: Explain how 'Childhood Leukemia: Overcoming distance between South America and Europe Regions' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Cancer has become an important public health problem worldwide and inequalities in access to malignancies control result in differences in patients’ outcome. Despite the recent improvement of survival rates in childhood leukaemia, there is still a gap in survival between regions, even within well-organized international cooperative groups. Childhood leukaemia care should be addressed from a global point of view, considering not only scientific aspects, the amount of technological and human resources and the current health policies, but also economic, cultural, social, educational and environmental particularities across countries. The aim of CLOSER is to harmonize the levels of care and reduce inequalities in the outcome of childhood leukaemia patients in the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), and in European countries. To do that, we will create a framework of collaborative, multidisciplinary research between CELAC and European regions. From a scientific point of view, we seek to boost a constant exchange of the knowledge on the biology and the technological approaches needed for the diagnosis and follow-up of childhood leukaemia between regions, provide additional resources to perform research and develop new simplified methods to assure a fast translation from bench to bedside. From a social and educative point of view, we will empower patients and families in leukaemia care and encourage the participation of civil society by analysing their particular needs, by promoting advocacy tools, launching a platform to exchange initiatives and experiences in patients care, always acting with the highest respect for the individualities of each country and with the objective to contribute to a better quality of life.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Orphan Genes as Drivers of Evolutionary Innovation in Microbial and Bacteriophage Systems'.

assistant: **Concept**

Orphan genes, unique to an organism or evolutionary lineage, are fundamental drivers of biological innovation. Representing up to 20% of genomes—from microbes to primates—these novel genes enable species-specific adaptations through their diverse functions. However, most orphan genes remain uncharacterized, and the evolutionary pressures governing their emergence are unknown. Addressing these knowledge gaps is crucial for revealing how novel genetic material shapes evolution and biodiversity, particularly in microbial systems.The Genovation project aims to transform our understanding of gene birth and evolutionary innovation through three aims:1.Evaluate the fitness impact of newly emerged genes in bacterial and yeast species.2.Investigate how novel proteins integrate into cellular systems.3.Elucidate biological functions of successful gene birth events, focusing on the phage-bacteria arms race—where gene birth is highly prevalent.We will study both synthetic and natural genes to reveal complementary aspects of orphan gene biology. In Aims 1 and 2, we will use my experience with randomly generated nucleotide sequences to simulate early stages of orphan gene emergence in varied genetic backgrounds. Analyzing fitness changes, physiological effects, and protein interactions will provide insights into the relationships between genetic features, cellular contexts, and gene birth. Aim 3 will leverage the rapid evolution and abundance of orphan genes in viral genomes. By identifying orphan genes affecting the phage life cycle and characterizing their functions, we aim to uncover how these genes shape viral-host dynamics and drive novelty.This project builds on my expertise in large-scale techniques, microbial and phage genetics, and molecular biology methods.
