user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Uncovering the origins of friction' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Nanotechnology is a new frontier in research and new tools must be developed. As surface to volume ratios become large, engineering at the nanoscale will be dominated by surface science. The study of Contact Mechanics at nanoscales nanotribology- needs to fully account for adhesive forces, third-body interactions and deformation mechanisms at contacting asperities. Understanding these factors as well as the morphological evolution of contact clusters has the potential of explaining the origins of frictional forces and wear. This will guide us in the design of tailored-made lubricants and surface morphologies, which, in turn, will help reduce the high societal cost of wear damage. This ERCstg proposal describes a plan to establish a world-leading group in Contact Mechanics at length scales ranging from the atomic to macroscopic scales relevant to Civil or Mechanical Engineering structural applications. Our approach will have recourse to molecular dynamics coupled with the finite-element method for an accurate description of atomic interactions at the contact surface, and of long-range elastic forces. The project is interdisciplinary as the deepening of our understanding of Contact Mechanics will necessitate Computer Science developments. A central objective of the research will be the release of an open, 3D parallel, finite-element platform dedicated to contact applications. The PI will assemble a team of Engineers and Computer Scientists to ensure a successful and perennial diffusion in the European academic and industrial network. The research will therefore explore the origins of friction, a scientific quest of fundamental importance to many industrial applications, and will also create a stable base for sharing scientific-computing resources.

assistant: **Impact**

The problems and potential for change in Europe\\\'s borders and borderlands are pivotal to, and goocindicators of, the obstacles and possibilities of European union enlargement and integration. The socio-economic characteristics of a borderland are determined by the political, economic a social characteristics of the neighbouring countries sharing the same border. It represents a d I resonant medium, which both connects and separates the different countries. It is often a conflict-rich environment regardless of its location. The aim of the project is to compare selected border areas which include an already-established intimae-EU borderland on the Irish-northern Irish border an three Hungarian borders representing transitional types, moving from EU-extremely to EU-intimae (Austria-Hungary), from non-EU to intimae-EU (Slovakian Hungarian), and non-EU to extremely-EL (Ukrainian Hungarian). These four cases provide a good basis for investigating the processes of thee\\\'s \\\'deepening and widening\\\'. The study is based on empirical surveys using qualitative a quantitative methods, including the statistical and GIS analysis of census data on both sides of theborder. The goals of the proposed work are.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Inclusive Design Rating (IDR) Toolkit.  The design and assessment tool for tailoring environments for everyone.'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Europe is ageing and the changing needs of the population are constantly shaping the way we live and interact in communities and environments.Accessibility, sustainability and inclusivity are now prominent keywords that are driving the design of products and of the built environment.The United Nations, the World Health Organisation and the European Commission (through the H2020 Programme) have supported the idea that accessible solutions for improving environments can effectively support well-being & socialisation of all members of society.Despite the proliferation of guidelines, design approaches and regulations, there is still a significant gap in the current awareness among the general public, of accessible, inclusive designed buildings that has yet to be covered.This proposal, will contribute to filling this gap by developing an Inclusive Design Rating (IDR) Toolkit that will enable stakeholders to design and certify accessible, inclusive dwellings.The project will be deployed through a framework for analysing the stakeholders’ point of view that will be used to co-design a certification toolkit for assessing inclusive, smart age-friendly environments. This IDR Toolkit will be used by professionals to assess the accessibility, usability and fitness for purpose of dwellings and by individuals to enable them to make decisions about how best to adapt their home to their specific needs.The research will be carried out at University of Cambridge by using the Inclusive Design and the Quality Function Deployment approaches which enable the constant involvement of stakeholders in the co-design process, avoiding a top-down approach. The project will have impact by increasing awareness of inclusive dwellings with a scientifically validated methodology for designing, re-design

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Worldscience: Scientific Experts in Trans-European Networks (1770-1840)' (1770-1840).

assistant: **Innovation**

This project focuses on a limited number of highly mobile polyvalent savants -civilians or military- who were invited by the ruling elites of a foreign country to promote scientific-technological policies. The researcher will study the role of these men of science in multidirectional cultural transfer from a comparative perspective. A uniting factor which makes the comparison feasible is achieved through a selection of independent countries where the ruling elites interiorized the notion of decline, “delay” or backwardness and aimed to overcome it by searching inspiration abroad (Spain, Latin American republics, the Ottoman Empire, Russia). The time span includes the period of Enlightenment and the first decades of constitutional regimes. Biographic method and network analysis will be combined with the analysis of discourse in order to examine the representation and self-representation of these savants whose “cosmopolitan” life trajectories -paradoxically?- often combined with their contribution to the building of modern Nation-States. One of the objectives is to examine whether these men constituted not only networks that crossed the borders, but also a universal imagined community. The researcher also aims to analyze the possibilities and limits of cultural transfer, examining the compatibility and incompatibility of practices, standards and values, as well as the appropriation and hybridization of concepts, focusing on broader political and social framework. The multidirectionality of transfer will be stressed, pointing to Extra-European contribution to the Enlightenment. The project will help the researcher acquire new skills: she will use innovative interdisciplinary methodology and develop intercultural communication skills through the collaboration with an intern

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Identifying defects in ZnO@ZnS core-shell nanostructures using ultra-high-field NMR, NQR and DNP' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Semiconductor nanocrystals, also known as quantum dots (QDs), are promising materials for a wide range of applications, including optoelectronics (display devices), optical bioimaging, solar cells and photocatalysis. Nevertheless, many QDs, such as CdS, contain toxic elements.  ZnO or ZnS are environmental-friendly alternatives but their use is limited by their wide band gap, which prevents the absorption of visible light. Heterostructures made of ZnO core with ZnS shell (ZnO@ZnS) represent a promising solution to reduce the band gap. They can be prepared by sulfidation of ZnO nanocrystals. Nevertheless, mastering their design requires to control their defects, and notably the O and S vacancies, which are assumed to facilitate the exchange of O2− and S2− anions during sulfidation reaction. The IDEA project aims at determining the structure and the concentration of defects in ZnO@ZnS heterostructures through the development of advanced solid-state NMR experiments. Since the isotopes found in Zn(O,S) nanocrystals (17O, 67Zn and 33S) are extremely challenging to detect by NMR (quadrupolar nuclei with low gyromagnetic ratio and low natural abundance), we will develop innovative solid-state NMR methods relying on ultra-high-field NMR (up to 28 T), dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), low-temperature (down to 30 K), and spin labelling strategies. The obtained NMR data for ZnO@ZnS heterostructures in combination with DFT calculations will provide unique information on the structure of their defects (vacancies, O/S substitution), their amount and distribution between the core and surface regions. These novel insights will be crucial to optimize the optoelectronic properties of these quantum dots in a rational way. Furthermore, this project will equip with unique research and out

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Contact-free dynamical volumetric measurements of lower body with functional clinical and diagnostic capacity (AURORA)' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

. Introduction The amount of people suffering from different musculo-skeletal complaints of the back and lower body, such as back pain and knee-problems, is huge. Orthopaedic physicians and physiotherapists are required to analyse a variety of movements to diagnose pathological or abnormal changes. At present, no equipment is available to carry out 4D surface measurements to analyse clinical functional parameters of the lower body. Therefore the purpose of the project is to develop and construct a low cost system able to reconstruct musculo-skeletal movements based on scanned volumes of the lower body. Materials and Methods: The innovation of this project will be a full volumetric and musculo-skeletal analysis of movements. Raster line triangulation combined with fast laser-based pattern projection will be used as the basic technique to record a part of the lower body in 4D (3D + time). As the equipment only processes (dynamical) surface information, anatomical and physiological models, able to reconstruct the musculo-skeletal system of the scanned body parts, have to be developed. Conclusion: The main advantages of the project output are the equipment's ability to reconstruct kinematics, kinetics and dynamics of the musculo-skeletal system of the lower body, without the use of potentially harmful and/or relatively expensive equipment, as well as its ability to indicate and quantify pathological changes or abnormalities, both at an early stage and in connection with diagnosis. Additionally, basic clinical parameters will be covered as well: volumetric analysis (volume differences, areas, distances, angels, ...), as well as ""standard""";2010-10-07 00:00:00"

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Computational Design Solutions for Touch Interfaces'.

assistant: **Concept**

Virtual reality (VR) and Human-computer interaction (HCI) are becoming available industrial technologies. However, to date, they miss support for touch interaction or haptics. While there are attempts to introduce various tactile/haptic interfaces in the market, these interfaces hardly take off, arguably because of technical barriers to integrate them and develop convincing applications. The *feelware* project will break these barriers and will ease the adoption of tactile/haptic interfaces in VR and HCI applications. *feelware* is sustained on recent research carried out in the ERC Consolidator Grant *TouchDesign*, which formulates the command of tactile/haptic interfaces as a computational design problem. This approach creates a middleware layer between the VR/HCI application and the interface device, effectively simplifying integration. The results of *TouchDesign* have been demonstrated on diverse interfaces (thimbles, exoskeletons, ultrasound arrays), showing the success to provide a unifying middleware.The *feelware* project will aid in the setup of a market-ready software solution, which can be embedded in third-party application-development environments (e.g., game development software), and can be coupled to diverse tactile/haptic interfaces. Developers will integrate such interfaces in a modular way, and will obtain touch interaction quick and easy.Prior to this proposal, we have verified market interest on the proposed software solution. Major global players in the software field are working on VR/HCI projects, including haptics. But they all handle device integration through dedicated, complex, low-level solutions, which do not facilitate massive adoption by application developers. Our proposed solution could play a key role in future developments. A major a

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Pre-leukemic B cell repertoire alterations in patients with familial chronic lymphocytic leukemia: looking for evidence of a genetically-inherited defect in tolerance induction' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a frequent B-cell leukemia of unknown etiology with the strongest familial inheritance among lymphoproliferative disorder. A key finding about CLL cells is that derive from autoreactive B lymphocytes, exhibit stereotyped Abs structures, and poly/auto-reactivity.Our long term goal is to prevent CLL by understanding the biology at the basis of CLL ontogeny.Our hypothesis is that an inherited CLL predisposition causes alterations in pre-leukemic B cells due to compromised immune tolerance, promoting, eventually, transformation event(s) that give rise to CLL. Such alterations skew the IG repertoires leading to enrichment of specific B- cell rearrangements with abnormal Ab reactivity.The overall goal of this study is to understand the role of inherited CLL predisposition in altering the IG structural repertoire and to determine the maturation step(s) and B-cell subset(s) at which these occur.Aim: Define a CLL-related BCR repertoire by analyzing the non-leukemic B-cells from patients with CLL.We will perform high-throughput BCR IG sequencing of non-leukemic B-cells of patients with familial and sporadic CLL. We will identify alterations in patient IGH repertoires compared controls to define a CLL-related repertoire.We expect to define an IGH repertoire difference in CLL patients that will result in the emergence of a mature B-cells with specific rearrangements normally not present.This approach to study CLL in a familial hierarchy diverges significantly from previous studies since it does not try to identify genetic alterations but focuses on structural and functional uniqueness of non-leukemic B-cells, we also avoid the background noise from the alterations specific for the leukemic clone. This study will unveil basic B-cell funct

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Time Matters: Uncovering dynamic mechanisms and optimising the intervention timing across the addictions'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Addictive behaviours cause unprecedented disease burden and human suffering. Supporting people to quit is an urgent priority yet absolute quit rates are low due to momentary lapses which beget further lapses and relapse. Studies using high-resolution measurements in people’s daily lives have found that fluctuations in biopsychosocial factors (e.g., cravings, self-efficacy) are associated with lapse risk at the within-person level. This has led to my conceptualising addictive behaviours as dynamical systems which change continuously and non-linearly over time. Potent relapse prevention interventions will need the ability to provide the right type of support to individuals, when and where they most need it. However, this cannot be achieved through relying on dominant addiction theories which do not encode temporal information about dynamical systems and state-of-the-art experimental methods which are not suited for studying intervention effects over time, within individuals.Time Matters will integrate previously unconnected theoretical and methodological advancements from addiction science and control engineering, including my unique skills in formal, dynamical systems modelling and novel within-person experimental designs, to uncover dynamic mechanisms of lapse and relapse across the addictions and optimise the intervention timing in systems which change over time. To achieve these ambitious goals, I will conduct five empirical studies and use advanced analytical techniques to integrate dynamic insights from temporally dense empirical data using low burden ‘microinteraction’ smartphone surveys, a new behavioural task suitable for smartphone delivery, smartwatches and smartphone meta-data. If successful, Time Matters has the potential to transform relapse prevention theor

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'The Gaia-ESO Milky Way Survey' (GAIA-ESO-MW).

assistant: **Concept**

Understanding how galaxies actually form and evolve within our dark matter and dark energy dominated [ɅCDM] universe continues to be an enormous challenge. State of the art simulations of the aggregation of cold dark matter under its own gravitational influence suggest that galaxies grow from very smooth initial conditions through a sequence of merger and accretion events. However, theoretical models of galaxy formation, which necessarily involve modelling star formation and stellar evolution, the creation and dispersal of the chemical elements, the formation and energy output of massive black holes, and the response of gas to radiation and supernova shock waves, among much more, rely more heavily on phenomenological models than on a detailed understanding of physical theory. Thus, these models require calibration with well-studied (nearby) test cases of galaxies which we can study in detail, specifically our own Milky Way Galaxy.The Gaia-ESO Survey is Europe’s major ground-based project to meet this scientific challenge.The Gaia-ESO Survey, which began data-taking in January 2012, has been allocated 300nights of telescope time over five years using the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (VLT-UT2) with its premier multi-object spectrograph, FLAMES.  The project will obtain high-quality spectroscopy of some 100,000 faint stars, systematically covering all the major components of the Milky Way. This will provide the first homogeneous overview of the distributions of kinematics and chemical elemental abundances in the Galaxy. With well-defined samples the Survey will quantify the kinematic+ multi-chemical element abundance distribution functions of the bulge, the thick disk, the thin disc, and the halo stellar components.This proposal is to provide the co
