user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Fluidised Bed Heat Treatment Furnace for HPDC engine blocks and other transport components offering new opportunities for lightweight, cost competitiveness and energy saving' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Advanced manufacturing technologies are needed in order to facilitate the production of high performance light weight aluminium components. HPDC is highly productive process but the conventional heat treatment technology cannot be applied due to the formation of blisters of entrapped gas. This project offers to the foundries and automotive companies industrial FB lines able to heat treat the key parts and thus it will lead the company growth for the next years from a high technology solution developer to an important stakeholder in automotive industry. Since its foundation in 1989, HORMESA has specialized in the equipment, materials and turnkey solutions for non-ferrous foundries, mainly Aluminium and Copper alloys. Customer driven attitude and continuous technology development allow us to offer practical solutions for industrial processes. Specialization and globalization are two forces that strongly influence this entity with result of a consolidated 25% growth during the 2009-2012 period. This project is “natural next step” as it is the next phase to develop the company´s strategy:- To enable heat treatment of High Pressure Die Cast “HPDC” parts (which are not heat treatable with conventional furnaces), thus increasing their tensile strength by a 100 % and making it possible to reduce their weight or replace heavier iron castings, particularly in the case of engine blocks.- To reduce by 2% CO2 emission by increasing replacing iron (a reduction of 28 kg is expected from replacing a iron engine of block of average 55 kg by an aluminium one)- To generate a new niche market of heat treatment lines for HPDC parts: 1 industrial line for FB heat treatment of HPDC engine blocks in the first year after finishing the project, and 3 lines in the second year (engine blocks or ot

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'How do you spell RESEARCH? SOCIETY - Science, histOry, Culture, musIc, Environment, arT, technologY' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

European Researchers' Night (ERN) events promoted by the SOCIETY Consortium will take place in 5 cities (Bologna, Forlì, Cesena, Ravenna and Rimini), with a program extended to both 2018 and 2019, for a total project duration of 18 months. SOCIETY aims to present research as the best tool to sort out the Societal Challenges that human beings face. SOCIETY will rely on interactivity and engagement at large: the project will aim to produce a Night co-design approach, in which researchers together with society will conceive the event programme.  After the success of the previous ERN edition, the Consortium comes with a new proposal, inspired by  the EU Year of Cultural Heritage. This is reflected by the new concept pointed out in the new title and acronym, where SOCIETY now stands for words that can be used to define our cultural heritage: Science, histOry, Culture, musIc, Environment, arT, technologY. The proposal stands at the intersection between these concepts. We’ll try to identify the features that shape and define our perception of ourselves and how we perceive who lives near and far from us. What is it that defines our culture? How and when is it that what we know, what we do, where we are, how we speak and move, and eat, and wear become culture? And finally, can our cultural heritage help us look ahead, understand the present, and to imagine the future? ERN events will explore the many ways in which research may help us understand, sustain, preserve, and develop our cultural heritage, in all its various shades and declinations.They will be designed in order to attract different kinds of publics. However, secondary school students, who are about to make their choice in terms of career, will be a privileged target, also through the involvement of Eu and MSCA researc

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Near-Infrared Semiconductor Plasmonic Nanocrystals for Enhanced Photovoltaics' (NIRPLANA) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Plasmonics is a hot and rapidly expanding research field. Of particular interest is the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) observed in noble metal nanocrystals (NCs). It leads to strong light scattering and enhanced light-matter interaction. However, the LSPR of metal NCs is restricted to visible wavelengths, unless multipole resonances are enhanced via shape engineering of the NCs.Recently, two papers were published showing that copper-deficient semiconductor Cu2-xS(e) NCs can also exhibit a strong LSPR, in the near-infrared (NIR) spectral region. This exciting result both pushes the LSPR to longer wavelengths and allows plasmonics using semiconductor materials, which are transparent near the LSPR wavelength.The project aims at expanding this new field by focusing on the fabrication of a NIR photovoltaic cell with enhanced performance. This is achieved through incorporation of NIR plasmonics NCs,  which allow improved absorption in the active layer via strong light scattering in NC thin film and an enhancement of the electric field near the NC surface. Two crucial steps need to be taken to achieve our goals. First, we need to further develop the synthesis of novel NIR plasmonic NCs. The focus lies here on a tuning of the spectral position and width of the LSPR by varying the Cu2-xS(e) material composition, size and shape, in order to optimize the NC scattering cross section and field enhancement at the desired NIR wavelength. Second, strategies will be developed to incorporate the plasmonic NCs into novel NC-based thin film photovoltaic cells. The device performance will be evaluated with and without plasmonic NCs, for different thin film configurations, in order to quantify the efficiency enhancement.Considering that our devices combine an improved absorption

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Intracellular events in cerebral endothelial cells during the transmigration of monocytes'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Research objectives and content The entry of monocytes into the brain may be one of the key events in immune-mediated diseases of the brain, like multiple sclerosis. Interaction of monocytes with the cerebrovascular endothelium may be one of the initial processes in the development of the disease. In this project, the relationship between monocyte-induced signalling pathways within the brain endothelial cells, and the subsequent transmigration of monocytes across the blood-brain barrier will be explored. The study will elucidate the mechanism of monocyte migration at the molecular levelby defining the endothelial surface molecules engaged during the process and which are responsible for initiating signalling pathways leading to alterations in the arrangements of the cytoskeleton and tight junctions. The immortalized cell-lines RBE-4 and GP 8/3 are available within the Institute and form a valuable tool in the transmigration studies. The adhesion molecules involved in the transmigration process will be identified. This project will then focus on the intracellular signalling pathways coupled to these adhesion molecules. In particular the role of small GTP-biding proteins (e.g. rho) in the endothelial cytoskeletal rearrangement and tight junction organisation that occurs during the monocyte transvascular migration will be evaluated. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) This study will be the first to describe the role and possible correlation of signal transduction pathways and the transmigration of monocytes into the brain. The understanding of these processes may eventually lead to the identification of potential therapies for immune-mediated diseases of the central nervous system.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Mud volcanism and turbidites occurrence as joint tools to identify paleoearthquakes in the Gulf of Cadiz and adjacent abyssal plains' (TURBOMUD) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Paleoseismology is a relatively recent branch of earthquake-related studies but, since its birth, it is rapidly expanding back in time the earthquakes (EQs) catalogues worldwide. Its contribution to historical and geological EQs detection has shed light on one of the most crucial challenges of modern geology: high magnitude EQs recurrence and our ability to “predict” them. Only this way, improving the characterization of seismic hazard by estimating magnitude and recurrence interval between large events, one would be able to mitigate the seismic risk and implement proper prevention policies for the nearby population. The TURBOMUD proposal is aiming to expand and refine this knowledge for the Gulf of Cadiz (GoC) accretionary wedge, using a large dataset collected during the most recent and previous expeditions carried out in the region. An innovative research plan has been designed, which will conjugate mud volcanism and turbidites occurrence, to better estimate the seismic hazard for this convergent area. With the help of unique material and data, including two long sediment cores obtained with the seafloor drill rig MeBo, several gravity cores, as well as bathymetric and seismic surveys, an extensive study on the GoC paleoseismology will be implemented. Specifically, several statistical techniques will be used to post-process the data, which will allow to test synchronicity of EQ-related events. Following a pioneering approach, the proponent is planning to apply and integrate the classical methods for the study of turbidite deposits to the suites of techniques used to describe mud volcanoes’ episodicity, in order to pinpoint past EQ events. The novel idea of joining these two ways of studying subduction zones EQs will provide an enhanced understanding as well as a more

user: Explain how 'Georadar-aided High-resolution Exploration to Advance deep geoThermal energy usage' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

GeoHEAT will transform geothermal exploration through two key strategic shifts: (i) minimising pre-drilling exploration costs while quantifying and communicating the risks; and (ii) maximising learning rates of exploration drilling while reducing the costs of characterisation. As a first step, the high costs and shortsighted prospection are tackled with passive surface-based imaging methods and uncertainty encompassing modelling alternatives. In parallel to reducing measurement bias, our approach engages a larger population and stakeholder group in search for optimal locations for geothermal exploitation. In the following step, GeoHEAT illuminates the subsurface to an unprecedented extent through a novel georadar probe. The georadar imaging is complemented with drilling-induced microseismicity monitoring and digital rock physics models to create a high-resolution understanding of the reservoir. Our novel, multi-scale approach unlocks the potential of informed deviated drilling, optimal wellbore placement and accurate performance and risk analysis. Throughout the GeoHEAT journey we propose effective and inclusive tools for public engagement and two-way communication while we introduce advanced decision-making tools for policymakers based on probabilistic modelling and uncertainty quantification. To maximize its impact and expediate its success, GeoHEAT consists of a complementary consortium with European leaders in the scientific, industrial, and public domain. The interdisciplinarity of our team allows us to look at geothermal energy exploration from different angles (e.g., geophysics, engineering, seismology, social sciences and humanities) and ensure the technical, scientific, economic and social sustainability of our proposed exploration workflow.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Brain reading of contextual feedback and predictions' (BrainReadFBPredCode) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

We are currently witnessing a paradigm shift in our understanding of human brain function, moving towards a clearer description of cortical processing. Sensory systems are no longer considered as 'passively recording' but rather as dynamically anticipating and adapting to the rapidly changing environment. These new ideas are encompassed in the predictive coding framework, and indeed in a unifying theory of the brain (Friston, 2010). In terms of brain computation, a predictive model is created in higher cortical areas and communicated to lower sensory areas through feedback connections. Based on my pioneering research I propose experiments that are capable of ‘brain-reading’ cortical feedback– which would contribute invaluable data to theoretical frameworks.The proposed research project will advance our understanding of ongoing brain activity, contextual processing, and cortical feedback - contributing to what is known about general cortical functions. By providing new insights as to the information content of cortical feedback, the proposal will fill one of the most important gaps in today’s knowledge about brain function. Friston’s unifying theory of the brain (Friston, 2010) and contemporary models of the predictive-coding framework (Hawkins and Blakeslee, 2004;Mumford, 1992;Rao and Ballard, 1999) assign feedback processing an essential role in cortical processing. Compared to feedforward information processing, our knowledge about feedback processing is in its infancy. The proposal introduces parametric and explorative brain reading designs to investigate this feedback processing. The chief goal of my proposal will be precision measures of cortical feedback, and a more ambitious objective is to read mental images and inner thoughts.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Novel antiferroelectric glass-ceramics  for energy storage applications' (NAGCESA) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The proposed training-through-research programme aims to develop novel materials for energy storage applications that would overcome the performance limitations related to the existing materials systems. This will be tackled by fabricating and characterizing recently discovered ABC antiferroelectrics which have never been previously synthesized. The novel materials will be studied in their crystalline form, and additionally glass-ceramics with the coexistence of ABC crystalline and glassy phases will be sintered and characterized, with the aim of improving electrical breakdown strength and energy density properties. The fellowship programme contains a series of complementary experimental training and several activities that will strengthen dissemination, project management and leadership skills of the fellow and it represents an excellent opportunity to prepare the ground for an independent research career. The exploitation of the present research is ensured by a solid scientific and industrial network connected to the fellow and to the host institution.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Multi-Scale Description of Non-Universal Behavior in Turbulent Combustion' (MILESTONE) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Combustion is an extremely important field for our society. The development of new, step-change technologies is essential and greatly benefits from computational design. However, turbulent combustion physics are complex, highly non-linear, of multi-scale and multi-physics nature, and involve interactions at many time-scales. This makes modeling quite challenging such that accurate predictive models, especially for the formation of pollutants, are not available. Today, the two major challenges for developing predictive simulations of turbulent combustion are first to account for its multi-scale nature by considering the non-universal behavior of small-scale turbulence, which is known to be critically important for turbulence-chemistry interactions, and second, to provide data in sufficient detail for rigorous analysis of model deficiencies and unambiguous model development. These two issues are addressed in the proposed work. The main overall objectives are: 1) Establish a new multi-scale framework to analyze and model turbulent combustion phenomena based on a new way to describe turbulence using so-called dissipation elements, which are space-filling regions in a scalar field allowing to capture its small-scale morphology and non-universality. 2) Create new unprecedented datasets using direct numerical simulations (DNS) and provide new analysis methods to develop and validate combustion models; this will include automatically reducing and optimizing chemical kinetic mechanisms for use in DNS and developing an on-the-fly chemistry reduction technique. 3) Apply new modeling approaches to complex and highly non-linear modeling questions, such as pollutant formation in turbulent spray combustion. The successful outcome of the project will provide new and unprecedented datas
