user: Explain how 'Nonlinear Sampled-data Attitude Stabilization of Underactuated Spacecraft' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Space stakeholders manifest an increasing interest in small satellites dictated by reduced, global costs and “time to market”. Since redundancy is kept to a minimum, achieving attitude stabilization in actuator failure mode with the remaining control torques can offer a fail-safe operation mode, improving the reliability of the attitude control system. The, still open, underlying control problem is challenging, since the nonlinear underactuated system is nonholonomic, admitting only non-smooth stabilizing feedback. Depending on actuator type and additional restrictions on the symmetricity of the spacecraft or its angular momenta, non standard, discontinuous or time-varying solutions have been proposed. Though any continuous-time controller is inevitably implemented digitally on the on-board computer, leading to loss of performance or even destabilization, the effect of sampling is never considered in the state-of-the-art. The aim of the present proposal is to develop novel control algorithms for three-axis attitude stabilization of an underactuated spacecraft in actuator failure mode without significant performance degradation with the remaining control torques. To this purpose, we follow a sampled-data methodology that considers the sampling issues from the beginning in the design process. Theoretical investigations will be conducted for ad-hoc digital solutions based on equivalent discrete models, finite computability and multirate control laws, permitting to impose digital performance objectives that cannot be set in continuous-time. The quality of the innovative algorithms developed is assured by extensive software simulations and application on an experimental attitude control platform.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Researchers and citizens communicating on the show' (RCCS) targeting Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The Researchers & Citizens Communicating on Show project, supported by the European Commission in the frame of the Researchers Night 2006, would like to be a tool to improve communication for the large public choosing as topic the very important role researchers play: they often are a silent engine" of everyday life, but, because of this silent running, public opinion doesn't seem to fully understand this added value.The challenge for the bid is not only to communicate to large public but also to demonstrate that the research's career is driven by curiosity and creativity and labs are places where these qualities are valorized. The Consortium, to achieve the objectives, will plan synergic activities putting in place complementary expertise and roles.The programme for the 22nd of September Night, which has been jointly defined, will be presented in at least three of the most important town in Piedmont: Turin, Alessandria and Vercelli. A very active role has been played by researchers, who have given relevant inputs to conceive the logic chain of activities and actions characterizing the RCCS proposal. They will of course play the role of protagonists in interacting with citizens and target public, ensuring the best development of the programme.Partners have acquired consolidate experiences in organizing events of relevant dimension and their contributions to the optimal working out of the Olympics Winter Games are the evidence. The Researchers & Citizens Communicating on Show, whose slogan is "RI CERCATORE(in)PiAZZA", joking with the Italian words, will start on June 2006 to finish on the 22nd of November 2006."

user: Describe how 'Development of systematic exon trapping for gene identification in genomic DNA' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

- To develop and improve the prototype exon trapping system.  - To use the improved systems to systematically identify and isolate genes from 2.5Mb of sequenced genomic clones on chromosome 22.  - To extensively evaluate and assess gene identification in sequenced genomic clones using computer based programmes and cDNA selection methods versus our improved exon trapping systems.Isolation of genes within the human genome is critical to our understanding of the structural, functional and organisational aspects of the genome. Current estimations of the total number of transcribes sequences (genes) in the human genome lie in the order of 75,000. A number of different strategies including genomic sequencing and computer based gene prediction have been employed in an attempt to identify genes in genomic clones in a systematic fashion. However, with the exception of exon trapping, none of these strategies offer a comprehensive method for systematic identification of genes in cloned and sequenced genomic DNA. Consequently, it has been estimated that as many as 10-40% of genes may go undetected. Exon trapping approaches offer the best potential for systematic gene identification. However, current exon trapping systems suffer from several limitations prohibiting large scale systematic use. The project partners have addressed these limitations and have developed improved prototype systems for exon trapping These systems offer significant advantages over existing exon trapping approaches. The objectives of this project are to develop and improve these systems to allow rapid, efficient and high throughput exon trapping, to apply and evaluate these improved systems for systematic identification of genes in sequenced and cloned genomic DNA. Specifically, the partners will a) improve t

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Microbiology of Anaerobic Hydrocarbon Degradation in Petroleum Reservoirs' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Microbial activity in petroleum reservoirs over geologic time has led to the biodegradation of most of the world’s oil reserves. Geochemical evidence for in situ biodegradation is strong, but little is known from a biological perspective and current micobiological understanding is largely inferred from non-oil field environments. Incorporating microbiology into petroleum geoscience and engineering will increase understanding and potentially allow better management of this vast energy resource. Microbial biomass in the deep subsurface is thought to be as large as on earth’s surface, yet our knowledge of this ‘Amazon’ beneath us remains currently almost zero.  To better understand oil biodegradation, the microbiology of subsurface petroleum reservoirs will be investigated at Newcastle University by combining approaches in molecular biology, microbiology and biogeochemistry. Heavy oil samples will be obtained from the Athabasca tar sands in Western Canada. Nucleic acid and lipid analyses of in situ microbial communities will reveal the diversity and abundance of reservoir microbial groups. Efforts directed toward successfully cultivating indigenous reservoir microbes - a goal that has largely eluded petroleum microbiologists to date - will open doors for growth and physiology studies. Biogeochemical rate measurements (e.g., methane production) in tar sands-inoculated microcosms will enable linking specific organisms to important processes. We hypothesize that hydrocarbon-degrading consortia of syntrophic bacteria and methanogenic archaea will be important players. Alternatively, anaerobes that couple hydrocarbon oxidation to sulfate or iron reduction may also be important. A stronger microbiological understanding of these groups and their roles in situ will be key to devel

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Self-Assembly of DNA-Functionalized Nanoparticles: a viable approach towards Supramolecular Crystals' (SUPRACRYST).

assistant: **Innovation**

Research towards 2D and 3D supramolecular crystal engineering is expected to play a key role in the development of controlled bottom-up fabrication of nanostructured devices. The ability to predict the self-assembly at different length scales, ultimately allowing to attain a full control over the interplay of kinetics and thermodynamics ruling the hierarchical self-assembly in inorganic and biological systems, is a fundamental prerequisite to the progress of the field. SUPRACRYST aims at contributing to the advance of such a central technological field in Europe, and in particular it will focus on the development of new DNA- and nanoparticle-based devices. The final goal will be the controlled engineering of 2D and 3D supramolecular crystals made of inorganic nanoparticles linked through the recognition of DNA single strands. The possibility of interfacing DNA with gold and magnetic nanoparticles, controlling both the geometry and the valence, will be explored. Structural DNA nanotechnology has opened up perspectives for the directed self-assembly of nanoparticles into patterned nanostructures that can lead to promising applications, such as photonic antennas and controlled plasmonic interactions. In this framework, the high-fidelity of DNA pairing code is exploited to program the assembly schemes, and single-stranded DNA (ss-DNA) will be used as couplings arms to steer the assembly of nano-units into functional 2D or 3D assemblies. The formation of ordered and disordered self-assembled condensed phases and their dependence on geometry and valence will be investigated. Controlling the length and flexibility of the binding DNA arms, as well as the architecture of the bonding pattern via the use of spacers and linkers, we aim to manipulate the obtained crystal structures

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Preparation of Multi-Functional Metal Organic Frameworks catalysts'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The overall aim of this project is to engineer new mono and multifunctional nanostructured solids to be used as catalyst for multi-step, one-pot reactions. The key objectives are: 1. Create stable nano-structured super basic catalysts based on Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) by using synthetic and/or post-synthetic approaches. 2. Create nano-structured solids containing covalently bonded sulphonic groups by using synthetic and/or post synthetic methods. 3. Create acid MOFs with metal nanoparticles encapsulated in the MOF cavities (acid-metallic catalyst). 4. Produce acid-base MOFs by using synthetic and/or post synthetic approaches. The main motivations for the exploration and development of efficient catalysts are to conserve energy, to produce fine chemicals and to develop environmentally friendly and safe technologies. Despite major improvements over the past few decades, many existing commercial catalysts are still plagued by low efficiency, high cost, and/or production of large quantities of hazardous wastes. Furthermore, many of them have been designed to catalyze a single reaction in multi-step reactions or to produce multiple products, in contrast to industry’s needs for efficient multi-step, one-pot catalytic processes. The tailoring of multifunctional catalysts is a big challenge for the research community and for the society in general, since proper catalysts may reduce the economical and environmental costs of crucial catalytic process. Multifunctionality in heterogeneous catalysis has been scarcely studied, with respect to multifunctional solids, the heterogeneous catalysis toolbox is still empty. In this sense MOFs are called to play an important role in the near future due to their wide chemical versatility and modifiability. The emphasis and final target

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'GREen Advanced TEchnologies for the Retrofitting of masonry Structures' (2014-2020) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings constitute more than 70% of the existing building stock worldwide and make up the vast majority of the world’s cultural and architectural heritage. Although masonry has proven to be a highly versatile and durable construction material, much of the existing building stock in Europe and developing countries are non-engineered URM buildings, often built with weak materials and following poor construction practices. As a result, the majority of the existing building stock is in dire need of structural rehabilitation and strengthening. Traditional strengthening and rehabilitation techniques include grout or epoxy injections, crack stitching, surface overlays with mesh-reinforced concrete, chicken-wire or reinforced plaster, reinforced concrete jacketing as well as external/internal post tensioning. However, all of these techniques can affect significantly the dynamic response characteristics of the structure and can be costly, labour-intensive and highly obtrusive. In recent years, the use of advanced composite materials in civil engineering applications has increased exponentially, and the various retrofitting solutions that have been developed based on the implementation of these materials have proven to be very effective. However, the high performance of these advanced materials would not be effectively exploited on the less demanding masonry structures and the high material and installation costs would render them prohibitive in most European and developing countries. The proposed project aims to develop a novel strengthening solution that uses natural fibre meshes embedded in an inorganic lime-mortar matrix. The new system will provide a more sustainable and cost‐effective alternative and will provide a more reliable solution that ca

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Understanding a severe thymus phenotype in a PKB mouse model: role of specific PKB isoforms in thymus and T cells development' (IMMUNOKINASE-B) targeting Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The thymus is a central lymphoid organ, which is of particular interest since it is the unique site responsible for T lymphocyte development. Failure to form a thymus results in profound immunodeficiency such as in the nude mouse or in humans affected by D i-George syndrome.Moreover, aberrant thymus structures such as in thymoma are possibly involved in autoimmunity. The study of PKB has been moving from a cellular to a whole organism context, highlighting tissue-specific functions of the different PKB isoforms in adult metabolism and normal development. Preliminary studies in our laboratory on PKB mutant mice have shown that haplo-insufficiency of PKBgamma in a PKBalpha null-background reduces the survival of mice and leads to major thymic defects, as observed in three-day-old mice.In view of our preliminary in vivo observation, we will take advantage of PKB mouse models available in house to understand and determine the role of not only PKBalpha and PKBgamma, but also PKBbeta, at different stages of thymus development and physiology.To do so, we will- study the expression profile and pattern of PKB isoforms in mouse thymus at different stages of development and life,- extensively analyze the thymus in different PKB mouse models and extend in parallel the study to a secondary lymphoid tissue, the spleen, and finally- uncover the mechanism involved.Results obtained from this study are expected to provide insights into the role of PKB in thymus development and physiology, and hopefully identify new molecular markers and novel potential pharmacological targets in diseases such as immunodeficiency and autoimmunity.

user: Describe how 'Planning in A liquiD worlD with tropicaL StakEs: solutions from an EU-Africa-Brazil perspective' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Marine environments are subject to growing pressures as traffic, increasing demand and changing land-use of coastal areas, seabed exploitation, dredging or mining, fishing, tourism, development of renewable energies, etc. Sustainably managed oceans and seas can contribute to economic growth and employment, and will allow the international community to meet its global targets, including the reduction of poverty and hunger as detailed in the global 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. Thus, marine environments are considered opportunities for future growth not only in Europe, but also in bordering marine areas like the tropical Atlantic.As a consequence, new frameworks will be increasingly needed to regulate and optimize the range of feasible uses of marine areas and resources. Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) aims at reconciling human uses and conservation, and offers an attractive setting to combine different uses of marine resources within a single area. There is an urgent and critical need for research on the application of MSP in tropical areas. The research should critically address the fact that the policy framework originally designed for the European Union (EU) may not fit the specificities of Southern countries. PADDLE will bring together internationally renowned researchers and actors, from countries bordering the tropical Atlantic and from the EU, to create a network and a colloborative platform, which will build theory and methods for pertinent MSP in tropical areas. This interdisciplinary team will be a pillar of knowledge-based MSP by providing critical analyses of the tools and methods used, and by designing innovative approaches to efficient MSP. The PADDLE proposal will create the first North-South interdisciplinary consortium on MSP in the tropics, highlig
