assistant: **Innovation**

A new type of industrial stirrup in concrete reinforcement is developed and laboratory tests have already proved its superiority during strong earthquakes. Main objectives of this project, will be the industrialization of the manufacturing process, as well as the optimization, experimental verification and validation of the proposed concept. Besides, alternative materials (FRPs) and different designs will be evaluated. The role of stirrups for the antiseismic strength of buildings is crucial, since they protect the concrete from expanding and fragmentizing and the rebars of the reinforcement from buckling and collapsing, what is proved to be the main failure mechanism of buildings during earthquakes. The developed stirrups are manufactured from a continuous wire, form consecutive windings along its longitudinal direction and house the rebars, with a pitch that may be uniform or variable. Because of their spiral continuous form, the axial load carried by the stirrups may continuously transmitted with no interruption across its length.

user: Describe how 'Civil Society for Sustainability' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Civil society and its organisations (CSO) play a vital role in the implementation of sustainable development (SD). Civil society actors exhibit special features, they are to a large degree driven by visions or ideals, place a focus on common action, participate in and initiate discourses about SD in society, enhance social capital, and share a non-economical (non-efficiency driven) world view. Given these characteristics, CSOs show some specific shortcomings: a non-economical worldview leads to less efficient pursuit of SD goals and to a weak representation in political and economical decision-processes; initiating discourses often excludes evidence-based thinking, giving away chances for increased self-reflexivity and learning; and a lack of institutionalisation within existing institutional frameworks of governance provide not sufficient leverage to influence policy making. Apart from these more general shortcomings, there are numerous specific and context-related issues that would need to be researched in order to increase efficiency of CSOs. To foster sustainability from an analytical perspective, there are two aspects underlying (or overarching) all these context-dependent problems:  (1) Degree of institutionalisation of sustainable development efforts within a local/regional context (socio-economical-political-cultural). Also therein, the degree of institutionalisation of sustainability-driven CSO in political/institutional decision structures (“participative governance”). (2) Sustainability knowledge and sustainability learning: getting sustainability across to people (“the long way from head to hand”). These aspects are closely related to each other and will provide the general research framework (GRF) of the proposed project, providing the “bracket” to keep con

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'New all-European high-performance stack: design for mass production'.

assistant: **Concept**

This project combines European know-how in single cells, coatings, sealing, and stack design to produce a novel 1 kW SOFC stack of unprecedented performance, together with the proof of concept of a 10 kWe SOFC stack. Improvements over the state of the art in cost, performance, efficiency, and reliability will be proven, covering all top-level objectives mentioned in the topic. The stacks will be developed according to system integrators’ requirements guided by an industrial steering group. The target application of the development is stationary and residential combined heat and power production based on natural gas, and will form the basis for Elcogen Oy’s commercial SOFC stack technology. All manufacturing methods, stack designs, and materials are chosen so that they are suitable for mass production and enable 1000 €/kW profitable stack price, which is a significant improvement to current state of the art. These methods, designs, and materials have been demonstrated successfully in small-scale and require the scale-up to suit manufacturing of 10 kWe SOFC stacks. For example, high performance of Elcogen cells and short stacks were already demonstrated with 100x100 mm2 cell size, but in this project cells and stack will be further improved and scaled up to larger 120x120 mm2 size.The project is based on the products of industrial partners and motivated by their interest to consolidate an optimized supply-chain and subsequently commercialize a high-performance product at very sharp prices. To this effect, the activity will pay great attention to designing the stack for mass production processes. One industrial partner is involved for each key function: Elcogen AS (cells), Elcogen Oy (stack assembly and production), Sandvik (interconnects and coatings), and Flexitallic Ltd

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Mixing and distribution of the physical and biological components o f the Black sea ecosystem', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Foreseen ResultsThe co-operation of the five partners provides a unique range of expertise combining local knowledge with authorities on biological and physical oceanography. This synergy provides an excellent opportunity to examine the relevant processes, given the timely use of satellite imagery, sophisticated laboratory experimentation and powerful numerical modelling techniques. A valuable data set, showing the spatial variability of the Sea will be obtained which will allow the full seasonable variability to be determined. It will also provide a mean of identifying the pollutant sources and the biological response.The research project will increase understanding of the complex balances that operate within the Black Sea ecosystem which will assist in making decisions concerning future urban and tourist developments, in planning shipping and transport policies and in harbouring the abundant natural resources.The Back Sea is a critical region of the European ecosystem. It is relatively enclosed sear with limited exchanges with the Mediterranean basin via the Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara and the Dardanelles. The surrounding countries depend on the Black Sea as an economic resource and as a depository for waste. The Black Sea is abundantly stocked with valuable sturgeon and other fish. As an outlet for the products of Ukraine and adjoining republics, it is of special importance in regional commerce. This project will study the Back Sea in an integrated programme which interfaces both the physical and biological processes which control the balance within the ecosystem. The major threat to the ecological balance comes from coastal inputs, and the effects of these inputs are, in turn, controlled by the rates at which they are mixed into the sea basin. In addition, the dis

assistant: **Impact**

A huge corpus of evidence shows that the format of the input and the answer code influence notably the latencies and error rates in calculation and other number manipulations.Nevertheless, we still do not know where these effects locate: some authors propose they are restricted to the encoding stage, while others claim that numerical information is stored in different formats and the interaction between these and the input and output codes determines the final answer.This project intends to shed light on this issue by investigating the role of verbal code in calculation. Our first objective consists in verifying its role in the storage of arithmetic facts. We will first investigate whether the code in which an arithmetical fact is learnt is the same in which it is subsequently stored. Provided we find evidence that multiplication and addition facts -which are learnt orally- are stored in a verbal format, we will try to specify the modality of these representations.Our second aim will check whether bilinguals also have a verbal arithmeticon in their second language. Finally, the third objective will concern bilinguals and complex calculation. Bialystok has hypothesized an advantage of bilinguals on executive control processes, due to their experience of managing two languages. We will examine whether this advantage also manifests in mathematics.Our work will use several experimental paradigms, most of them adapted from psycholinguistics. We will also manipulate the language of participants and the modality of presentation of our stimuli. When possible, we will try to complement these results with neuropsychological data.This project will contribute to the objectives of FP6 by enhancing the knowledge both at theoretical (relationships between language, working memory and

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'BIO-BASED LONG LASTING SAFE AND SUSTAINABLE BY DESIGN SURFACE COATINGS FOR DEMANDING AND EXTREME CONDITIONS' (BLUECOAT).

assistant: **Innovation**

Surface coatings are essential for protecting materials and enhancing their functionality, but the reliance on fossil resources necessitates safer, sustainable alternatives that maintain high performance while reducing environmental impact. To address these challenges, BLUECOAT will develop 12 safe, sustainable, bio-based, and low-carbon emission coating formulations for the marine, textile, and construction sectors that are challenging and demanding conditions for coatings. The project will explore 4 bio-based feedstocks: bio-derived polymers, natural fibres, bioplastics, and plant-based proteins, to develop 6 optimized coatings consisting of bio-based PU, bio-based silicone, PLA, natural fibres with antimicrobial agents (such as chitosan and curcumin), and encapsulates with Phase Change Materials (PCM). BLUECOAT formulations will cut GHG emissions by 45% and minimize Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) while delivering superior performance under industrially relevant conditions (TRL 5). BLUECOAT solutions will provide antifouling and anti-corrosion protection for ship hulls, weatherproof, antimicrobial, and durable features for outdoor technical garments, and flame-retardant and antifungal for insulation boards in marine, textile, and construction sectors, respectively. The BLUECOAT’s vision is to establish a suite of comprehensive Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design criteria guiding the development of bio-based coatings throughout their lifecycle, emphasizing circularity, energy and resource efficiency. The project will conduct the ex-post environmental assessment, techno-economic feasibility of scaling potential products, socioeconomic impact analysis for ensuring sustainable market adoption and long-term viability of the developed coatings. It will also explore End-of-Life

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'New CENTRalities in INdustrial areas as engines for inNOvation and urban transformation' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Europe gave birth to the industrial revolution about two centuries ago thanks to the convergence of a series of factors that allowed technology to be closer to society, while creating economic benefits to regional and national economies. With the globalisation, European cities lost a large volume of manufacturing capacity and  transitioned to a knowledge economy. The result: a decrease in manufacturing jobs, the lack appreciation for these jobs, and neglected industrial areas subject to decay. Decay of industrial heritage has a major imprint on European city's identities, but also is a source of opportunity. The result, industrial areas with high historical value for Europe being abandoned or exploited by extractive economic activities, with no connection to local knowledge, and with no generation of value at the local level. CENTRINNO aims to develop and demonstrate strategies, approaches and solutions for regeneration of industrial historic sites and areas as creative production and manufacturing hubs, that 1) hold true to the ecological challenges of our time, 2) boost a diverse, inclusive and innovative urban economy, and 3) and use heritage as a catalizer for innovation and social inclusion. We give centre stage to craftsmen, vocationally trained professionals, entrepreneurs, makers, SME’s, Fab Labs, Food Labs and Makerpaces to become key players in the cities supply of local goods and support them to take on a fundamental role in our future cities, thus opposing disengagement and stagnation of local economies. Through a holistic method combining the Fab City Global Initiative approach to productive cities with Emotion Networking, life cycle assessment and spatially-specific material flow analyses, we bring to the fore both complex, layered histories of these sites

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'DEVELOPMENT OF MUTILAYER STRUCTURAL THIN METAL SHEETS WITH CONVENTIONAL WORKABILLITY AND SUPERIOR OVERALL PERFORMANCE' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Laminates for technical applications manufactured by means of the Cellular / Stratified method (C&S - patent pending), are well matched to the requirement of large/medium entreprises involved in mass production. The relevant reduction in weight obtained with C&S laminates, is coupled with a noticeable increase in the thermoacoustic insulation, at a fabrication cost, which is relatively low. Base materials for such a laminate typology can be thin layers of metallic alloys, as well as films of various organic materials, from wood to paper, up to plastics.Large and medium mass production entreprises are continuously looking for innovative laminates to increase competitiveness of their products, with respect to non-European markets.Laminates manufactured with the Cellular/Stratified (C&S) system also satisfy the design requirements for a reduction weight up to 1/2 - 1/3 with respect to traditional bulk laminates with equal flexural-torsional stiffness and the possibility to use processing techniques already involved for conventional laminates (cutting, bending, deep drawing). Laminates with the C&S system should have a fabrication cost increase limited to a factor 1.1-1.5 with respect to traditional laminates.The basic principle for the manufacturing of C&S laminates involves coupling of a pair of thin external layers with an inner honeycomb structure by means of strong welding/glueing. The honeycomb is realised by a double side crossed corrugation at a fine pitch, obtained from a plain sheet of deformable material of suitable thickness.The basic manufacturing principle may be applied to a wide series of different materials.From the existing patents and structural calculations, the project focused on the development of the production technology of the laminate, up to the co

assistant: **Concept**

One of the five priorities in the White Paper Growth, Competitiveness and Employment" is 'Preparing forthwith and laying the foundations for the Information Society'. As a result there is a need for actions as follows "Investment in education and training: Knowledge and know-how throughout life".The Bangemann Report states "The information society has the potential to improve the quality of life of Europe's citizens, the efficiency of our social and economic organisation and to reinforce cohesion. The main risk lies in the creation of a two-tier society of have and have-nots, in which only part of the population has access to the new technology, is comfortable using it and can fully enjoy its benefits".It is within this scenario that CEPIS (The Council of European Professional Informatics Societies) is introducing the European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL). This is a basic qualification which indicates that the holder is competent to undertake a series of straightforward tasks using a computer.The ECDL consists of seven modules, one written and six practical tests using a computer. When a candidate registers for the ECDL he/she will be given a European Computer Skills Card on which to record the modules which have been passed. On successful completion of all the modules an ECDL will be issued.The first module covers aspects of where computers are used, the basics of computing, ethics, security and privacy.The second module deals with using the computer and managing files. It includes such items as operating system commands, creating and managing files within directories, back-ups and installing software.The third module covers the fundamental aspects of word processing while the fourth module concentrates on spreadsheets.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'What is the molecular mechanism of mechanosensation? Mechanosensitive channel of large conductance, MscL, as a model' (MECHANOSENSATION) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

“Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure science” E.P. Hubble It is amazing how much we have learned about the working of our universe by using our five senses and how little we still know about the working of these senses themselves! Even though the molecular mechanism of sight, taste, and smell is known, we still don’t know how the mechanical sensations of touch and hearing function at the molecular level. Mechanosensitive (MS) ion channels, present in membranes, are the molecules that sense membrane tension in all species ranging from bacteria to man. They stay functional even in artificial membranes, indicating that mechanosensation occurs at the protein-lipid interface. In an effort to understand the mechanism of force sensation, the major limitation has been the inability to ‘observe’ the molecular changes occurring in MS channels from the onset of the force. The aim of this proposal is to understand how channel proteins sense mechanical force at the molecular level. A bacterial channel, MscL, will be used as a model for its natural function to couple tension in the membrane to protein conformational changes. Here, on the basis of my recent findings, I propose to build on synthetic biology approaches to develop unique tools to specifically address the MS channel, allowing controlling its activity extrinsically and reversibly. In combination with the spectroscopic techniques, I want to elucidate the mechanism of mechanosensation in MscL by measuring structural changes in the protein and its interaction with the surrounding lipids, starting from the onset of the force. The research will clarify not only the long-standing question of how MscL senses tension, but it will also shed light on the common property of mech
