user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Cost effective lignin-based carbon fibres for innovative light-weight applications' (GreenLight) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The overall objectives are to demonstrate a new biobased, renewable and economically viable carbon fibre (CF) precursor – lignin – produced in Europe with European raw material and to develop conditions for its processing into CF and structural CF composites. The target is a cost-effective biobased CF for use in reinforced composites delivering sufficient enough strength properties for large-volume automotive applications. Reducing vehicle weight is a decisive factor for successful fulfilment of the future targets in EU regulations regarding CO2 emissions from the automotive sector. CF reinforced plastics has been introduced as a low-weight material replacing/complementing steel and aluminium. Today’s CF production is based on use of a petroleum-based raw material, PAN, which is costly due to the starting precursor and the process for turning it into CF. Most PAN used in Europe is imported. The automotive sector has identified a need for a cheaper lower-grade CF to meet the demands of components in normal consumer cars. Lignin from kraft pulp mills is a green, sustainable, abundant and cost-efficient new potential CF precursor. The European pulp and paper industry has a need for additional revenues due to the global competition and the decline in printing and writing paper. Successful lignin applications like CF will create new business opportunities and new jobs also in rural areas where the pulp mills are located. The development of lignin-based CF is still in laboratory scale and material properties meeting high-quality product demands is the main challenge. Now a new technology in commercial operation makes it possible to produce lignin with new properties, higher purity and with less impact on the pulp mill operation. The idea is to tailor kraft lignin properties a

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Role of the marine carbon cycle in the climate system' (PALEOCARB).

assistant: **Concept**

The general topic of the proposal is the study of the marine carbon cycle and its role in the climate system by driving atmospheric CO2. The investigation of this interaction is vital to understanding the key feedbacks operating in the present-day Earth system. The specific research objectives are to determine at a global scale during key climatic intervals i) the composition and main sources of organic carbon in marine sediments; ii) the relative fluxes of organic carbon from various sources to sediments through time and space; and iii) to relate the relative roles of certain marine carbon cycle processes to changes in atmospheric CO2 concentrations. The approach proposed is to undertake a paleoclimatic study combining geochemical measurements in marine sediments with mathematical simulation experiments, using a 3D climate model with a coupled carbon cycle module. The goal of the project is to obtain quantitative information on marine carbon cycle processes using an interdisciplinary approach. The main reconstruction tools are biomarker proxies, as they provide direct information on the carbon cycle, being carbon based molecules. Three time periods of interest have been selected for the study to represent i) conditions equivalent to present (Holocene); ii) a different response of the climate system to practically the same external forcing (Pliocene); and iii) extreme climatic conditions (LGM). The biomarker data will be contrasted against the carbon model results to seek its validation, and obtain new observational bounds to determine the sensitivity of the Earth’s climate to CO2, with the perspective of improving the Earth system model when used in the assessment of future climate changes. Training will be directed towards acquiring new skills in isotopic techniques t

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Politics and Royal Foreign Women in the Court of Egypt: A New Analysis of Diplomatic Marriages during Late Bronze Age.' (PRINCESS).

assistant: **Innovation**

The PRINCESS project aims to study the foreign women of the royal entourage during the Late Bronze Age (LBA) in Egypt (1550-1060 BC) through the analysis of diplomatic marriages. These political unions that the Pharaoh contracted with the sisters and daughters of the rulers of the foreign Great Powers (Hatti, Mittani, Assyria and Babylonia) are well attested in the textual documentation of the Ancient Near East (ANE) and Egypt. The originality of this project is based on the fact that it involves the study of both Egyptian and ANE sources (textual, archaeological and iconographic data) with the help of ANE specialists, which allows an interdisciplinary approach. In addition, it combines the study of the funerary practices of these royal women, as well as of their ladies-in-waiting. All the data will be analysed in the light of gender studies and gender archaeology. The aim of the research is to highlight their role and status as well as their degree of acculturation at the Egyptian court. This project is crucial to understand the complexity of alliances in ancient worlds through the study of foreign women. New archaeological data coming from tombs recently discovered in Luxor will be associated with fieldwork on the site of Gurob (Fayum) led by the Experienced Researcher (ER) connected with the remains of a harem-palace and an important foreign population. This project will enable the ER to set up innovative models of reflection, which results will also be rewarding for both the host institution (Centre National de la Recherche scientifique) and the partner institution (Universität Basel). In return, the ER will benefit from the teaching and advice from leading ANE archaeologists and ceramicists, and gender studies specialists. Within the 24 months of the fellowship, th

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Collective Platform for Community Resilience and Social Innovation during Crises' (COMRADES) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Response to crisis often reveals organisational and technological shortcomings, which threaten community recovery and sustainable. Even though some technological solutions exist, challenges of communication, interoperability, and data analytics remain. The deployment and use of technologies, and the social structures in which they are adopted, are interdependent. Hence it is imperative to develop human-centred technologies that take into account actual real world practices of affected populations and responders. The rise of social media as an information channel during crisis has become key to community resilience and response. However, existing crisis awareness applications, such as Ushahidi, while vital for information gathering, often struggle to address the challenges of real-time social data analysis and aggregation of crisis micro-events, and filtering of unverified content and reporters. This project will build an intelligent collective resilience platform to help communities to reconnect, respond, and recover from crisis situations. COMRADES will achieve this through an interdisciplinary, socio-technical approach, which will draw on the latest advances in computational social science, social computing, real-time analytics, text and social media analysis, and Linked Open Data. The platform specifications and design requirements will be derived through participatory design workshops with existing activist, responder, and reporter communities. The open source COMRADES platform will go beyond the now standard data collection, mapping, and manual analysis functions provided by the underpinning, widely used Ushahidi crisis mapping tool, to include new intelligent algorithms aimed at helping communities, citizens, and humanitarian services with analysing, verifying, mo

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Thermally efficient, cost-reduced nanostructured foams for vacuum insulation panels'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Climate change is an energy problem, says the conclusion of studies related to global warming. Aware of this “inconvenient truth”, Europe launched strategies, with precise energy savings and gas emissions reductions, to be reached by 2020 and an ultimate sustainable energy system by 2050. As a large share of energy consumption is spent by the household sector (heating, air conditioning, refrigeration), advanced thermal insulation products give a crucial contribution to better energy efficiency.Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs) are currently the most effective solution. By offering ten times higher thermal insulation than traditional materials of the same thickness, VIPs use less material, thus saving usable spaces. Besides the high insulation capacity, volume reduction by the use of VIPs eases waste disposal, lowers extra logistic costs and transport emissions while reducing the energy needed to keep the temperature at a desired level. On the other hand, high performance VIPs are still unaffordable for the majority of customers mainly due to the costly fumed silica core (~50% of the VIP cost). The search for cost-effective core materials is a challenge for the scientific community but, revolutionary and cheap nanostructured polystyrene foam (SUMFOAM), recently developed by Sumteq GmbH, may fill this gap in VIP technology. This project focuses on the unique combination of SUMFOAM with VIP. The vast experience in VIP technology by va-Q-tec will be fundamental to achieve higher thermal efficiency at much lower production costs than previously reached. Also, SUMFOAM offers the possibility of accurately shaping and tailoring solutions for the intended application. In addition to setting a new figure-of-merit in VIP, the ultimate goal of the project is to contribute to the EU s

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'The Macroeconomics of Inequality, Development and the Welfare State' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

This project will develop macro models with heterogeneity across people and firms to understand the consequences of two profound macro trends: the economic transformation of China and the rising cross-sectional inequality in many countries. The ultimate aim is to help these models become everyday tools in macro, development/labor economics, and actual policy making.Inequality and human capital accumulation is an important theme. I will develop tractable models of the equity-efficiency tradeoffs under risk and imperfect financial markets. Due to novel general equilibrium effects, progressive taxation is particularly distortive for education choices. This calls for complementary policies. I also explore the nexus between inequality and aggregate risk, the interaction between inequality and the dynamics of political conflict, and the puzzling success of the Scandinavian welfare model.The project will provide sharper tools for policy analysis. A key aim is to integrate models of mistakes into structural macro models. While such models generally assume rationality, welfare programs are often geared to precisely address negative consequences of human errors. Assuming information is costly, I will quantify bounds on rationality to match observed behavior. The framework has a wide range of potential uses. I will use it to reevaluate government programs.A large part of the project focuses on China. The rapid economic transformation of emerging economies has raised many new questions for economic theory and policy. I will marshal the use of models with heterogeneity to address these issues. A key goal is to develop a quantitative structural model that can become the benchmark model of fiscal policy analysis and long-run forecasts in China. As an application, I will study cost and

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Development of a cost effective submersible fish cage system (SUBFISHCAGE)', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The value is currently 2.500 million Euro per year. Aquaculture constitutes 17 % of the volume and 27 % of thevalue of the total fisheries in the Union, however this varies within the different regions in Europe. However, the lastdecade the annual growth rage of EU aquaculture of 3,4 % has been slower than the world average of 11 %. Theprogress in fish farming has been good, but is now tending to slow down. To continue to be active in the market aswell as increase the annual growth rate of aquaculture, this industry needs to innovate and develop new and costeffective production methods compared to the current method of production addressing the main challenges thisaquaculture industry faces, including competition for space, harmful algae blooms, eutrophication, escapees,alien species and GMO's. Our idea is to develop a cost-effective submersible fish cage for suitable for openwaters and unsheltered coastal areas. By submersion technology, our SubFishCage system to be developed inthe project, will be able exploit open waters and unsheltered coastal areas and and avoid threats in the surfacelayer of the water including bad weather conditions and high waves, ice floe (in Northern waters) which cancause damage to the installation with consequences like escapees and hence alien species and GMO. Inaddition, submersion will make it possible to avoid the negative effects of algae and jellyfish invasions, since thisdo occur in the surface water layer. Moving offshore will also reduce the risk of negative effects of eutrophication.Our innovations and development routes include:a?? A patentable Deep Sea Anchoring System with Rotating Head.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Tracking discoursal shift in news media representation of economic inequality: developing and applying corpus linguistic and critical discourse analysis methods' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

DINEQ explores changes in the discoursal representation of degrees of economic inequality in selected British newspapers in 1971 and 2011. It is the first applied diachronic linguistic study to combine a consideration of the socio-political history in Britain in those forty years, a comparative analysis of selected public discourses in those two years, and a semantic, grammatical and lexical study of media representations of wealth inequality. The methodological approach used for this project is primarily Corpus Linguistic, but draws also on Systemic-Functional Grammar, and adopts a broadly Critical Discourse Analytic theory of discourse. The interdisciplinary nature of this project is complemented with the expertise of the Supervisor, Prof. Michael Toolan, and the Fellow, Dr. Eva Gomez, both experts in Stylistics and Discourse Analysis. The quality of the proposed project is ensured by the commitment of the members involved and the support committed by the University of Birmingham, one of the leading universities in Europe. This innovative study aims to demonstrate that rigorous and systematic corpus-based discourse analysis can establish discursive change over time, of a kind that is so dispersed and gradual   that it is imperceptible in the day-to-day newspaper-reading of the ordinary reader.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Making access to the ocean affordable through our SeaSprings mooring solution' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

TfI SeaSprings is a novel mooring solution for floating offshore structures, e.g. floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs). State-of-the-art mooring systems mainly approach the complex offshore mooring challenge by increasing the system's strength. Our patent-pending TfI SeaSprings innovation changes mooring system response to reduce peak loads by ~50% and wear and tear by ~30%. As a result, mooring systems can be significantly lighter, their lifespan can be extended, and it allows use of smaller deployment vessels with greater availability and a reduction of ~€170k/day on vessel hire. These factors all lower CapEx and OpEx, which can support FOWTs in reaching target levelised cost of energy (LCOE) of €90/MWh from €160/MWh. This makes SeaSprings a very attractive solution to FOWT developers and energy consumers. The smaller footprint, lighter chains and use of a semi-taut rather than catenary system, reduces environmental impact and crucially opens up new locations for deployment.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Strengthening the web entrepreneurship ecosystem in Europe for young people by creating a pan-European network of actively engaged student networks and student entrepreneurship centres' (MY-WAY).

assistant: **Concept**

MY-WAY aims at enhancing and improving the collaboration and efforts of web entrepreneurship initiatives (hubs, projects, accelerator networks, contests, etc.), web/business experts (accelerators, mentors, etc.), educational actors (business teachers and trainers) and the young adults as the final beneficiaries (through student networks, their alumni and student entrepreneurship centres, the student support centres). This coordination will create synergies and find ways to embed flexible services based on the existing best practices to be sustained by the student support centres in any European country at low cost. The social network of young adults across Europe will enable a wide spread of information, discovery of synergies and linkages between the actors and their services.The active engagement of student support centres and connecting them with business networks within the web entrepreneurship ecosystem and its activities, e.g. the development of the support services (training, mentoring, access to funding, regulation, policy, etc.) will strengthen the ecosystem and will also increase the visibility and impact of the web entrepreneurship initiatives and services. A network of student support centres will act as multipliers and successfully represent the targeted young adults boosting web entrepreneurship in the long term. Primary, secondary as well as emerging web entrepreneurship hubs will be involved across Europe into the project activities. The project partnership contains representatives from across the support chain for web entrepreneurs with adequate expertise and network infrastructure to successfully engage the critical mass of stakeholders. The project will implement support actions boosting the entrepreneurial spirit, especially changing the mindset, con
