user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Efficient Approximation for Stochastic Optimization' (STOCHASTICOPT) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The primary goal of this research is to develop a general and constructive theory for a wide class of stochastic optimization problems in various research areas such as operations research, inventory and production management, project and machine scheduling, mathematical finance and theoretical computer science. This research project proposes to investigate efficient approximation methods for stochastic dynamic programming problems. The proposed project aims to establish when stochastic dynamic problems have FPTAS, develop generic tools to unify the creation of FPTAS, and develop efficient algorithms for realistic problems. If successful this research would lead to a better understanding of the difficulty involved in solving stochastic dynamic programming problems and to efficient approximations for stochastic optimization problems. The project is built in a modular way, exploring independently various practical topics in stochastic optimization such as stochastic models, structure of optimal policies, applied probability, dependencies of the stochastic variable, hardness results and practical performance.

user: Describe how 'Nanotechnology Enhanced Extruded Fibre Reinforced Foam Cement Based Environmentally Friendly Sandwich Material for Building Applications' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Fibre Reinforced Cement (FRC) is a durable, fire and corrosion resistant material widely used in the construction industry. Coupled with the low cost of Portland cement, these properties make it ideally suited for applications such as roofing tiles and sidings. However the production of cement is associated with a large CO2 ‘footprint’, for each tonne of cement produced nearly one tonne of CO2 is emitted. This has resulted in FRC becoming stigmatised as a ‘dirty’ material. In addition the high density of cement and hence FRC products results in high transport costs for the producers and high end user installation costs.In order to improve the poor environmental impact of FRC and improve its specific properties, we will develop a cement based, nanotechnology enhanced material produced by a low energy consuming process. The material will consist of a cement based sandwich consisting of a foam cement core and fibre reinforced cement ‘skins’. The foam core will be produced using a nanoscale foaming agent to ensure the formation of an optimum closed cell foam structure with a micro-scale cell size with a narrow cell size distribution. Both the foam and the ‘skins’ will be reinforced with nanoclays to improve both the mechanical and transport properties of the material. The foam cement core will result in a lower density compared to existing FRC, whilst the reinforced skins will ensure the mechanical properties are improved. Added functionality in the form of decreased thermal conductivity and increased sound insulation properties will result from the foam core.The material will be produced by a low energy multilayer extrusion process in which both the foam cement core and fibre reinforced skins are simultaneously formed such that no discontinuity is formed between them.

user: Describe how 'Novel low cost catalyst for direct hydrogen peroxide synthesis' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The discovery of the catalytic properties of gold has advanced understanding of the fundamental properties of catalyst materials and has opened new avenues for catalyst design and reaction control.  However, the price of gold is a significant barrier to commercial uptake and implementation.  A discovery arising from the ERC Advanced grant ‘After the Goldrush’ (ERC-2011-AdG-291319) offers the prospect of a new generation of catalyst materials that have all the beneficial features of gold-based catalysts, but utilising much cheaper metals.The proposed programme (LOWCOSTPEROXIDE) will bring to pre-commercial stage a selective, efficient and cost-effective catalyst system for the direct synthesis of the valuable commodity chemical, hydrogen peroxide, from hydrogen and oxygen.""

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Evolution of clusters of galaxies at high redshift - implications for cosmological models' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Research objectives and content The evolution of clusters of galaxies can place important constraints on current cosmological models. Recently, a number of galaxy clusters have been discovered at high redshift thanks to the rapid development of observational techniques. A systematic search and analysis of high-redshift clusters forms the subject of the proposed project. Wide-field images in several colours will be made and a catalogue of cluster candidates will be produced from these and archive optical and X-ray data. The cluster candidates will subsequently be observed at higher resolution using HST and the XMM satellite. Cluster masses will be determined using weak lensing statistics and X-ray temperature. Mass and luminosity functions will be determined. Also, the properties of the member galaxies will be analysed. The expected number density of high-redshifit dusters as seen on the sky will be determined theoretically in the framework of hierarchical clustering and by investigating numerical simulations of structure formation in conjunction with models of galaxy evolution. By comparing to the observational mass and luminosity functions the matter density in the Universe will be determined. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) The project involves training concerning a large variety of astrophysical techniques: - observational techniques on large optical telescopes - analysis of optical and X-ray data - numerical cosmological simulations (Durham) - galaxy evolution models - development of computer code to simulate observations at different wavelengths using the above models  Links with industry I industrial relevance (22) not relevant

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Integrated Organic Rankine Cycle system for simultaneous utilization of solar energy and LNG cold energy' (SO-LNG-ORC) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Both renewable energy (e.g. solar energy) and conventional fuels (e.g. Liquified Natural Gas (LNG)) play an important role in the future energy market. Rising electricity demand, finite fossil fuel reserves and environmental concerns motivate the switch to renewable energy sources, increasing energy efficiency, and recovery of unused energy streams. I am determined to make my own contribution in dealing with these issues. This project aims to develop a holistic systematic method for a future energy system design for an integrated Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) for simultaneous utilization of solar energy and LNG cold energy. Through various training during my Ph.D. research, I am equipped with good knowledge regarding (ORC), process integration and optimization. As a postdoc at Norwegian University of Science and Technology and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, I obtained experience in the field of Process Systems Engineering and energy system optimization. I would like to extend my knowledge and skills with the optimization under uncertainties, process risk analysis, and environmental impact assessment to design a combined renewable and conventional energy system based on an interdisciplinary approach. Therefore, I have decided to apply for a Marie Curie Individual Fellowship at the Process and Systems Engineering Center at DTU, which excels in the simulation-based optimization, process risk analysis, and environmental impacts assessment. In the future, I would like to continue focusing on future energy system design as well as greenhouse gas emissions and aim to deliver novel applicable energy systems featuring high efficiency and profitability, but low risk and low environmental impacts. The training I would get through a Marie Curie fellowship, would also bring me

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Shaping of the Human Immune System by Primal Environmental Exposures In the Newborn Child' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Immune systems are highly variable, but the sources of this variation are poorly understood. Genetic variation only explains a minor fraction of this, and we are unable to accurately predict the risk of immune mediated disease or severe infection in any given individual. I recently found that immune cells and proteins in healthy twins vary because of non-heritable influences (infections, vaccines, microbiota etc.), with only minor influences from heritable factors (Brodin, et al, Cell 2015). When and how such environmental influences shape our immune system is now important to understand. Birth represents the most transformational change in environment during the life of any individual. I propose, that environmental influences at birth, and during the first months of life could be particularly influential by imprinting on the regulatory mechanisms forming in the developing immune system. Adaptive changes in immune cell frequencies and functional states induced by early-life exposures could determine both the immune competence of the newborn, but potentially also its long-term trajectory towards immunological health or disease. Here, I propose a study of 1000 newborn children, followed longitudinally during their first 1000 days of life. By monitoring immune profiles and recording many environmental influences, we hope to understand how early life exposures can influence human immune system development. We have established a new assay based on Mass Cytometry and necessary data analysis tools (Brodin, et al, PNAS 2014), to simultaneously monitor the frequencies, phenotypes and functional states of more than 200 blood immune cell populations from only 100 microliters of blood. By monitoring environmental influences at regular follow-up visits, by questionnaires, serum meas

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Development of a Next-Generation, Dual-Target Rabies/Flavivirus Infectious DNA (iDNA) Vaccine' (RABYD-VAX) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Rabies is the deadliest disease on earth (99.9% fatality rate). Annually, ~58.000 people die from rabies, more than half of them are children. Many remain unvaccinated because of the high costs and the need for a cold-chain. Likewise, despite the existence of an excellent yellow fever (YF) vaccine, yearly ~30.000 people die of YF. The 80-year old low-tech production process does not allow to produce sufficient doses. There is now a real danger that major YF-outbreaks become uncontrollable. We aim at developing an efficient, safe, cheap, thermostable and easy-to-produce vaccine that can be needle-free administered, that protects against both rabies and YF, and that can be implemented in routine prophylactic paediatric vaccination. For this, we will employ our (P01a) proprietary infectious DNA (iDNA) vaccine technology. Simple, even needle-free injection of a low dose (1-10µg) of this easy-to-produce naked plasmid in mice and hamsters launches the YF vaccine virus and protects hamsters as efficiently as the commercial vaccine against lethal YF challenge. The iDNA YF vaccine will be used as vector to express relevant protective rabies antigens. Dual protection of such chimeric iDNA rabies/YF vaccine will be demonstrated against lethal rabies and YFV challenge in small animal models. Likewise, chimeric rabies/Japanese encephalitis and rabies/Zika virus iDNA vaccine candidates will be generated using this versatile platform. Next, induction of protective immunity will be demonstrated in rhesus macaques. The iDNA vaccines combine the benefits of both the YF live-attenuated vaccine (highly efficient life-long induction of immunity) and the thermo-stability, ease-of-production and the potential to customize (in response to emerging medical needs) of “classical” DNA vaccines.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Sustainable Measures for Industrial Laundry Expansion Strategies: SMART LAUNDRY-2015' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The EU-27 industrial laundry sector, with 11.000 establishments (more than 90% SMEs), washes 2,7 billion kg of soiled textiles per year (wet weight) employing 168.000 workers and utilizing 42 million m3 of wash water and 60 PJ of energy per year. It generates similar quantities of waste water, to be treated, and substantial CO2 emissions (3,8 million tons CO2/year). The annual turnover of the sector is 5,1 billion euro, which can be doubled if all disposable textile articles were replaced by environmentally friendly reusable items. Focused and coordinated research to develop and improve innovative technologies can greatly enhance the performance of the sector. The conventional laundry processes are characterized by large enthalpy destructions and resource inefficiencies.   It is the purpose of the project to design the SMART LAUNDRY-2015 through research, further development and adaptation of 16 key technologies (combined for green sites or individual for existing plant augmentation). These include water reduction, energy savings, green fuel substitutions for CO2 reductions, new energy systems and improved sequencing of the processes, greater textile hyiene. Full implementation of the SMART LAUNDRY-2015 will reduce the annual water consumptions by at least 10,4 million m3 (30%), the energy consumptions by 27,5 PJ (45%) and the overall CO2 emissions by 2,3 million tons CO2 per year (60% reduction) at 100% market penetration in the year 2015. Improved laundry services with the 16 key technologies and practices will enhance reusable textiles and reduce the throwaways and disposables by 20%. The 16 key technologies will be investigated at pilot scale level and subsequently integrated in a unified design. A parallel benchmarking and innovation monitoring will validate both t

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Linking urban design and health issues: an interdisciplinary approach' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Darchen in Tibet is a small town situated at the foot of the holy mountain Kailas, which lies near the source of five of Asia’s most significant rivers. The town has been expanding steadily over the last decade through the growing influx of pilgrims and tourists, which is expected to increase exponentially in the next few years. Concomitant economic growth is causing significant lifestyle changes for the population of Darchen. However, the town, situated in a semi-arid region, is already facing serious environmental issues due to a lack of water and sanitation infrastructure. Problems include inadequate supply of drinking water, water pollution, lack of waste water and solid waste management, rubbish dumping, etc. Further, the inhabitants of the town face a number of health issues, which may be partially related to inadequacy and pollution of drinking water. The aim of this study is to analyze the relation between water management and health issues, and to identify urban design solutions which may be appropriate to tackling the water management problem. The premise is that an analysis of health issues may visualize to policy and decision makers the advantages of urban infrastructure investment enabling adequate and clean drinking water supply in Darchen. Further, the research can serve to inform Eco-town models for the future development of other towns in the same region.
