user: Draft an impact statement for 'Shear and torsion interaction of hollow core slabs (HOLCOTORS)', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Precast pre-stressed hollow core slabs are among the most advanced and widely spread products in the precast concrete industry. The present design method for shear and torsion in Euro code 2 and preen 1168 is conservative and hence an obstacle for competition, since no interaction is taken into account. The project will develop a design method for this interaction. The program includes a modelling of the phenomenon using non-linear fracture mechanics in finite element analysis, both for individual elements and total floors, validated by tests. The resulting design method and parameters will be directly used in the CEN product standard prEN 1168, and benefit the entire European precast concrete industry (189000 people in 5000 plants). The pre-normative study is strongly supported by the CEN/TC229 resolution N° 118.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Divergent modes of ritual, social cohesion, prosociality, and conflict.'.

assistant: **Concept**

The project aims to establish an authoritative scientific framework for understanding the relationship between group ritual, social cohesion, and pro-group behaviour. Rituals have shaped human societies for millennia, but the exact social consequences of rituals are poorly understood. The proposed research will identify the fundamental components of rituals worldwide and chart their effects on patterns of group alignment and action. Doing so will have a lasting impact on basic understandings of the nature, causes, and consequences of ritual dynamics as well as open up exciting new avenues of inquiry that bridge the humanities and social sciences. It is proposed that within numerous cultures and group types, collective rituals come in two main forms with distinct consequences: 1) affectively-intense, rarely-enacted rituals bond group members tightly and motivate extreme self-sacrifice; 2) frequently repeated rituals create allegiance to broad collectives and motivate ingroup bias. Using this model as a starting point, the proposed research programme will seek to achieve three tightly linked objectives. Objective 1 will examine psychological mechanisms underlying rituals’ effects on group cohesion and behaviour in ten nations. Objective 2 will focus on the ritual dynamics of special populations exposed to group-related violence (e.g., war veterans, ex-convicts, war-torn communities). Objective 3 will examine the functions of ritual and cohesion in cultural group selection. Using new techniques, we will quantitatively code and analyse qualitative data on ritual and cohesion in large historical databases from hundreds of groups over the past 12,000 years. Overall, these research objectives aim to provide insights into key questions (e.g., what are the fundamental building b

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Innovative Social Services platform'.

assistant: **Concept**

Our consortium will investigate innovative approaches in three fields of social services: health, education, and welfare. To do so, we will focus on two levels: (i) the status quo of research in these fields and (ii) the input from practitioners who have developed innovative social services. Special attention will be paid to the transferability of elements, the European value, effects on gender and migration issues as well as on promoting equality and building sustainability, future scenarios involving the quality of services in different perspectives (policy makers, service organizations, user groups etc.), and the accessibility and affordability of services. Thus, our proposal will combine the practical knowledge of praxis organizations with the input from research findings in order to unclose new perspectives and future trends. In a rather unique way using new media and innovative technologies, we will produce distributive material (videos, picture samples, case study brochures) to discuss innovative case studies from all over Europe with stakeholders and researchers. Our main communication tools are based on information technologies, completed by regional workshops. The involvement of many and various national and international stakeholders is the decisive feature of the proposal. We plan to use a peer recommendation approach as well as a snowball sampling method in order to collect and identify good practice examples of innovative services. The disseminating strategy will follow a twin-track approach so that all different kind of stakeholders can benefit from the process as well as from the final product of the project. The final product will be a report indicating the key trends and key elements of innovative services in the fields of health, education, and welfar

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Sensory stimulation-related haemodynamic responses during waking, slow wave sleep and rapid eye movement sleep - a functional magnetic resonance study in humans' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Research objectives and content The rationale of the project arises from the paradoxical effect observed during Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep in regard to sensory information processing. In REM there is a total lack of perceptual awareness in relation to sensory stimulation despite the fact that thalamocortical system is similarly activated during Waking (W) and REM. Since early components of Somatosensory Evoked Potentials (SEPs) are present but late components are abolished in REM, it appears that in this state sensory information does not reach the cortex so that there is not neural substrate for perceptual awareness. In order to understand at which level in the brain sensor) processing is affected during REM we intend to test the operative modes of the thalamocortical system by presenting multimodal sensory stimulation across different behavioral states. FMRI techniques will be used to delineate the functional anatomy and connectivity that reflects different sensory information processing operating during W, Slow wave Sleep and REM. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) The two years period would include theoretical and practical training in functional Magnetic Resonance and functional data analysis. This acquired knowledge would allow the applicant to combine the potential of functional imaging with her previous research experience in sleep physiology and polygraphic recording techniques.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Improving the Research Capacity for Nanoscale Materials Characterization' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The purpose of this proposal is to evaluate the research program and existing infrastructure in our materials characterization lab and seek recommendations for improvement to enhance our research potential for nanoscale studies and increase our participation in FP7.  Currently, many projects funded at the national level have achieved limited success in developing high tech materials that exploit nanoscale phenomena.  There is a clear need for microstructural and chemical evaluation capabilities at the sub-5-nm scale.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Applications of Customised Design Tools for Composite Structures' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Concept**

While dealing with design of composite structures, the number of design variables is so high that the feeling of engineers is rarely sufficient to optimise the design. In this project, sizing, shape and topological optimisation techniques are applied to several types of composites in order to reach a highly efficient use of materials in structures. Starting from present design methodologies and dealing with technological constraints coming from manufacturing processes, the aim is to develop new design methodologies allowing to enhance the quality of products and decrease the time to market new products. In order to achieve the goals, customised design systems will be build and tested in the context of SME's and big companies. New parametric modellers will be build and integrated within the customised environment. A very important feature is that the whole problem here will be treated at the geometrical level (not at the finite element one). That must guarantee, user friendliness of the proposed software tools. New design and optimisation algorithms will also be integrated. The general architecture will be the BOSS QUATTRO system, developed thanks to an other B/E project (OPTIM). The result will then be a toolbox available for further customisation in other applications. Metallic composite panels are considered here as well as classical multi layered composites. Different ways to formulate the design problem are studied and compared: sizing of plies, shape optimisation of laminates on the shell, topology of laminates etc. The problems of uncertainty and sensitivity to manufacturing defects will also be studied using rigorous methods. As part of the customisation task, the best formulations will be selected with respect to targeted design problems. Experimental testing wi

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Essa' in the context of a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The outcome of this proposal will be a series of three very high level Euro Summer Schools in Mathematical Analysis. The principal aim of the series is the training of young researchers from the EU and Associated States, to provide them with the information and contacts to further their research over the next decade. Mathematical Analysis is an area of central importance within mathematics, and in this series it is intended to treat three topics:- Mathematical Analysis Of Hydrodynamics, - Operator Theory, And Analysis - Computation: Theory And Algorithms. Each of these reaches out not only to other areas of analysis, but also to other areas of mathematics, science and technology. These topics are at the forefront of current international developments. Each Summer School will consist of around 15 lecture courses, usually in the form of three one-hour lectures, given by leading international experts who are also renowned for their expository skills.The formal lectures will also be supplemented by tutorial sessions. Eighty participants are expected to attend each Summer School, with around 40 to be funded through this proposal. The Summer Schools will last 11 to 12 days and will be carefully structured so that the more elementary and familiar material is presented first, and the cutting-edge state-of -the-art research at the end.The host organisation - the International Centre for Mathematical Sciences (ICMS) - has over a decade of experience in hosting research level conferences of many sorts. In particular, every year since 1993, it has organised instructional courses in analysis of a very similar type and scale to those proposed here.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Friends or foes? The role of Biofilm microbiomes in industrial anaerobic membrane bioreactors to MAXimise bioenergy production' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Transforming the European Union into a competitive low-carbon economy by 2050 requires the industry sector to continue implementing energy-efficient processes, especially for the valorisation of biodegradable waste and wastewater. Anaerobic digestion membrane bioreactors (AnMBR) is an emerging technology combining the production of methane-rich bioenergy and high-quality effluents free of particles, colloids and pathogens. However, the presence of biocidal or inhibitory compounds found in many industrial wastewaters hinders the implementation of AnMBR associated to low process efficiencies and instability. Additionally, the adhesion of particles and formation microbial biofilms into the membrane surface results in increased operational energy requirements. Biofilm formation may be exacerbated when treating industrial wastewaters containing high concentrations of inhibitory compounds since biofilm formation is a widespread microbial survival strategy to thrive under unfavourable conditions. However, are biofilms friend or foe? A controlled biofilm formation may be beneficial to improve AnMBR robustness and methane yields since the protection given by the biofilm structure allows microorganisms to function in harsher conditions. Understanding the interaction between biofilm formation and functionality in anaerobic biotechnologies is key for the success of AnMBR technology and the valorisation of heavily polluted industrial wastewaters. To this aim, I will systematically study the identity, dynamics and ecophysiology of planktonic and biofilm microbiomes occurring in AnMBR treating pharmaceutical wastewater. Harnessing this knowledge will allow the quantification of the role and potential of microbial biofilms to improve AnMBR performance, robustness and economic feasibili

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Robotics and Artificial Intelligence for Critical Asset Monitoring' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

This project aims to develop technologies which will enhance the operational capabilities of mobile robots for use in the inspection and maintenance of industrial facilities.    A major task in many industrial environments is the retrieval of samples for chemical or biological analysis.  Surface swabbing is often conducted manually, but this creates limits on the number of samples that can be taken and their location.  There are often many places that can't be reached by people either due to the location (very high, or in confined/restricted access spaces) or environmental hazardous (such as heat or radiation).This project will develop a multi-domain, multi-agent robotic sample retrieval system that will be able to obtain samples across a range of environments.  These samples will either be stored for ex-situ analysis in labs or taken to mobile labs for in-situ, real-time analysed.  Due to the nature of the operational environments, full autonomy is not desirable, so shared autonomy (human-in-the-loop) will be required.  The primary application focus will be nuclear environments, however the technologies will be applicable to many other sectors include petrochemical, offshore and agriculture.

user: Explain how 'Spring-to-autumn measurements and modellling of ozone and active species' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Problems to be solvedThere are still discrepancies between model prediction and observations of the year- round stratospheric ozone decline in mid and high latitudes. In summer, current models still severely overestimate ozone in the polar regions, and this appears as a major deficiency in our ability to model the complete ozone seasonal cycle. The springtime mid-latitude ozone depletion has not been satisfactorily modelled in a quantitative manner. This proposal hence aims at improving our understanding and modelling of ozone loss processes throughout spring and summer, in the northern mid and high latitudes.Scientific objectives and approachThe main scientific objective is to acquire a quantitative understanding of:(i) the mid-latitude ozone depletion accompanying the breakdown of the wintertime polar vortex, especially over Europe, andii) the Arctic summer ozone deficit and its linkage to midlatitudes.The project relies on using an integrated approach combining ground-based and balloon-borne measurements, global satellite observations, as well as advanced chemical/dynamical modelling and data assimilation. Measurements of ozone, inert gases, or species actively involved in ozone chemistry, are made at three different stations in the Arctic throughout spring and summer. Observational techniques comprise ground-based lidar and infrared spectroscopic measurements, and lightweight balloon-borne instrumentation. Satellite observations complement these local, ground-based and in-site measurements by allowing characterising the global, evolving three-dimensional ozone distribution. The satellite data are globally integrated into a transport model through data assimilation. State-of-the-art numerical models are used to investigate the interaction of chemistry and mixing in t
