user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Optimizing Capillary Flows in Twisted Fiber Structures'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The transport of drops on slender structures, such as threads and fibers, plays an essential role in engineering applications and is pivotal for the survival of many living creatures. The key to these processes lies in efficiently transporting drops and controlling their motion along the fiber. Drop flow control is enabled by manipulating the fiber’s surface properties, where today’s surface manufacturing methods hinge on advanced and costly techniques, including environmentally harmful chemicals. In the TWIST project, I will develop a new methodology for designing optimal drop transport on twisted fibers and nets. By mechanically twisting multiple fibers with different sizes, geometries, poro-elasticity, and physicochemical properties, I will create, through simple means and without the need for advanced microsystem technology, a hierarchical and grooved structure that can be tuned to control the flow of drops. The TWIST project aims to elucidate the fundamental fluid mechanics of drop capillary flows on these fibrous structures, even when exposed to wind and vibrations, and to provide new theoretical tools for describing the underlying fluid physics. Furthermore, the project will facilitate the development of pathways for utilizing sustainable materials, such as animal and plant-based materials, to generate twisted fiber structures with desired properties and utilize their hygroscopic responses. To showcase its potential use in applications, these fiber structures will be implemented in the fog net technology, which is used to capture atmospheric fog in arid regions. It is envisioned that TWIST will enable new research and engineering a pathways for a Do-It-Yourself solution to produce sustainable threads and nets, going beyond plastic based solutions.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Robust algorithms for learning from modern data'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Machine learning is needed and used everywhere, from science to industry, with a growing impact on many disciplines. While first successes were due at least in part to simple supervised learning algorithms used primarily as black boxes on medium-scale problems, modern data pose new challenges. Scalability is an important issue of course: with large amounts of data, many current problems far exceed the capabilities of existing algorithms despite sophisticated computing architectures. But beyond this, the core classical model of supervised machine learning, with the usual assumptions of independent and identically distributed data, or well-defined features, outputs and loss functions, has reached its theoretical and practical limits.Given this new setting, existing optimization-based algorithms are not adapted. The main objective of this proposal is to push the frontiers of supervised machine learning, in terms of (a) scalability to data with massive numbers of observations, features, and tasks, (b) adaptability to modern computing environments, in particular for parallel and distributed processing, (c) provable adaptivity and robustness to problem and hardware specifications, and (d) robustness to non-convexities inherent in machine learning problems.To achieve the expected breakthroughs, we will design a novel generation of learning algorithms amenable to a tight convergence analysis with realistic assumptions and efficient implementations. They will help transition machine learning algorithms towards the same wide-spread robust use as numerical linear algebra libraries. Outcomes of the research described in this proposal will include algorithms that come with strong convergence guarantees and are well-tested on real-life benchmarks coming from computer vision, bioinfor

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'EU, US and UN in the Balkans: Whether and when their policy would help Macedonia become part of the EU?' (2002-2006) under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Relations between Europe and the United States as well as the influence of the United Nations have evolved significantly over the past decade as a result of the end of the Cold War, the continuing consolidation and enlargement of the European Union, the expansion of NATO, the increasing interdependence of a globalized world economy and the crisis in different parts of the world. One response to these changes has been the launching of the New Transatlantic Agenda in 1995 which has provided a framework for expanding and intensifying cooperation between the United States and the European Union in the areas of security, diplomacy, economic relations, and cultural exchange. The Partnership for Peace initiative and the expansion to the East of NATO have also sought to address changes in transatlantic and regional security relationships. The purpose of this paper will be to examine transatlantic relations against the changing backdrop of this new order and to identify the underlying values and goals of the transatlantic relationship in the South Eastern European in particular, the Western Balkans Region with special emphasis on the Republic of Macedonia. Areas of focus will include the continuing evolution of the European Union and NATO, questions of burden-sharing in response to the challenges in the Western Balkan Region, economic security and competitiveness, and the future possible cooperation and visions for the Region. Further consideration will be given to the following questions: Will Europe assume a larger and important role in the leadership in the Western Balkan Region? What type of foreign policy will the European Union develop there in the imminent years for the different countries of the Western Balkan Region? What relationship will the transatlantic partners wit

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Universalism, universal design and equitable access to the designed environment' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The proposed research examines the proposition that the values and attitudes embedded into the production of the designed environment display little or no knowledge of how to respond to the manifold complexities of the body. This will be explored through the context of disability and design, with the focus on assessing the relevance of the principles and practices of one of the foremost, contemporary, design movements, Universal Design (UD), and how it addresses the problems of/for impaired bodies in interacting with the designed environment. UD principles state that the design of products and environments ought to ‘be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design’ (Mace, 1988: 1). UD is an increasingly important feature of nations seeking to develop a fairer society for people unable to use, with ease, the designed environment. The project will scrutinize the underlying assumptions about design and embodiment shaping the content of UD, what UD is, as a sociopolitical phenomenon, its interpenetration into, and across, different scales and sectors of society, and, how far it enables autonomy of human-environment interactions by (re) creating artefacts sensitized to the (disabled) body. In doing so, the research will redress key lacunae by investigating how far UD principles and practices are shaping approaches to the crafting of designed environments, how such practices are governed and shaped by diverse actors, and, how far the differentiated bodily needs of disabled people may be met by the programmes and policies of UD. The project is divided into two parts: (i). Documenting the transnational/governance networks shaping UD discourse; (ii). A comparative study of the socio- institutionalization of UD, inclu

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Foreign Real Estate Investment, Housing Affordability, and Regulations: A Comparative Political Economy Analysis of 50 Countries' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The rapid influx of global capital into residential real estate has significantly reshaped housing markets, particularly in global cities, where foreign investment has driven up property prices and rents, exacerbating housing affordability challenges. Despite its economic benefits, Foreign Real Estate Investment (FREI) often makes homeownership less attainable for local residents, leading to varied government responses. While some case studies have explored this issue on a localized level, a large-scale, comparative analysis remains absent. This project addresses this gap by investigating the impact of FREI on housing affordability and homeownership across 50 countries, using a comparative political economy approach. The study will analyze divergent regulatory approaches and evaluate their effectiveness in managing FREIs effects on housing markets. Using advanced econometric methods like Vector Autoregression (VAR) and Instrumental Variable (IV) models, and developing two original datasetsForeign Real Estate Investment Index (FREI) and Foreign Real Estate Investment Regulation Index (FREIR)this research will provide a comprehensive analysis of the complex interactions between foreign investment, housing market dynamics, and regulatory frameworks. The findings will offer critical insights for policymakers to develop strategies that balance the benefits of foreign investment with the need for affordable housing.

user: Describe how 'User behaviour informed learning and intelligent control for charging of vehicle battery packs' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The realisation of the EU industrial and political ambition of promoting transportation electrification to reduce carbon emissions depends heavily on the continued advancement of battery technologies. However, rapid battery pack degradation caused by improper charging behaviours is one of the most crucial factors restricting the wide usage of electric vehicles. This project aims to make step changes in research and innovation of battery management by developing 1) a user charging preference learning and demand prediction model methodology, 2) a user demand-informed optimisation methodology of charging trajectory, and 3) a distributed trajectory tracking-based battery pack charging control, and realise an advanced career development for the experienced researcher.  As an MSCA-PF fellow, the experienced researcher, Dr. Quan Ouyang, will receive crucial career development at the Chalmers University of Technology and engage in detailed battery charging control works which span the areas of automatic control and artificial intelligence using a clearly defined training-through-research approach. The project results will include a generic smart charging system to prolong battery life and improve the vehicles resource efficiency and convenience. The incorporated battery pack charging strategies will benefit from revolutionarily considering the user preferences and demand, where the designed charging currents can be intelligently adjusted according to different user demands that can effectively restrict battery degradation. The hosting group at the Chalmers University of Technology has a tradition of projects in close cooperation with the vehicle industry (e.g., Volvo Cars, Scania, and CEVT), making it highly likely that the results of this project will be taken up by the indust

user: Describe how 'Gender-Sensitive Biography of the Polish Actress Irena Solska (1877-1958)' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The project’s aim is to write a gender-sensitive biography of Irena Solska (1877-1958) who was an outstanding actress of the 20th century theatre in Poland. Due to extensive library and archive research, this project will propose new readings of many empirical facts and data; its objective is also to introduce documents that by the moment unknown or known only in fragments and/or by description. Beside it, this biography will have ambition to become an exemplary case study as for the theatre processes that took part at the beginning of the 20th century (marked by the change from the performer-centred theatre model to the director-centred one); to revise the legends and stereotypical views that have been functioning about Irena Solska in Polish society and internationally and to introduce her name to broader European public. The life and work of Irena Solska will be explored in the context of the European theatre that at the begining from the turn of the centuries was involved in the common process of transtion from a performer-centred model to a director-centred one. The investigation of the gender implications of this process is the main innovation of this project. Above it, the project will address many different aspects of Solska’s biography that at the moment are highly understudied. The research will be conducted in the vein of gendering theatre history, and at the intersection with many other disciplines – such as history of women, visual culture studies, studies of women’s autobiographical writings, Holocaust studies, memory studies. By addressing some key problems in theatre history of the 20th century theatre, the project aims at creating long term collaboration between specialists interested in gendering of theatre studies in Europe and Russia that will be mut

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Development of a long term creep monitoring image based technique' (CREEPIMAGE) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The CreepImage project will develop a digital image technique for long term measurement and monitoring of creep deformation of an engineering structure/component under harsh conditions (high temperature, irradiation etc) where direct sensor attachment and human access are difficult or dangerous. A high definition digital camera equipped with a suitable lens (macro, telescopic or telecentric lens) will be used to capture images of a grid on the component surface at various stages, and digital image correlation (DIC) will be used to calculate the deformation associated with creep behaviour of the component.The procedure is expected to be as follows: (1) Physically produce a grid on the surface of the structure. It serves as the information carrier from which deformation can be calculated by DIC. (2) Capture digital images of the grid at different stages. A reference plate with a stable known coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) will be placed adjacent to the grid such that it can be imaged simultaneously. This permits automatic calibration without the need to keep the camera on site all the time. (3) DIC software will be used to calculate the overall deformation. Creep strain is obtained by subtracting the thermal deformation.The project work will be a laboratory based demonstration to validate the proposed techniques and to investigate the measurement capability (accuracy, repeatability etc). In addition to nuclear plants, other potential application areas include evaporators in a power plant.

user: Explain how 'Photonics of Spin–Orbit Optical Phenomena' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Spin-orbit optical phenomena can be broadly defined as those phenomena in which the polarization (“spin”) and the spatial structure (“orbit”) of an optical wave interact with each other and become spatially and/or temporally correlated, leading to novel effects or photonic applications.The project vision is a full-fledged spin-orbit photonic science and technology, and its achievement will be pursued by moving in three main directions:1) We will develop innovative systems based on spin-orbit optical media for generating light fields exhibiting a complex spatial vector structure, both in two dimensions (transverse plane and transverse fields) and in three (i.e. involving time- and space-dependent polarization fields and longitudinal field components). We will extend these ideas to other spectral domains (terahertz waves) and explore the possible applications of these fields in areas such as optical manipulation, plasmonics, space-division multiplexing in optical fibers, time-domain terahertz spectroscopy, ultrafast optics.2) We will exploit spin-orbit quantum correlations generated within single photons and/or among few correlated photons to demonstrate novel quantum-information protocols using both the polarization and the transverse modes to encode and manipulate multiple qubits in each photon and for the implementation of quantum simulations of material systems based on photonic quantum walks in the Hilbert space of the light transverse modes.3) We will investigate novel or unexplained physical processes occurring in structured optical media and light-sensitive material systems which respond both to the optical polarization and to its spatial inhomogeneity. Such materials will then be used to manipulate and characterize spin-orbit vector states of light.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'SYNergic multimodal platform for high-throughput anti-cancer bOne-metastases theraPy ScreenIngS'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Cancer is currently the second cause of death worldwide; however, the World Health Organization expects it to become the first one by 2060. Breast and Prostate Cancers (BC and PC) are highly aggressive tumours linked to top cancer-related mortality rates in the world, with the skeletal tissue as one of the primary sites of metastasis.This project, called SYNOPSIS, an acronym for “SYNergic multimodal platform for high-throughput anti-cancer bOne-metastases theraPy ScreenIngS”, aims at studying therapeutic agents against BC and PC in the perivascular niche around the bone-tissue within a lab-on-chip, with a multimodal approach involving time-lapse microscopy (TLM) and impedance optical-deformability cytometry (IODC).The proposed project is divided into four key phases:1. Organ-on-chip platform: design, fabrication, and testing of the microphysiological system (MPS), including the culturing of bone and cancer cells under fluid shear stress conditions and the administration of chemotherapeutic agents.2. IODC: design, fabrication, and testing of the module.3. Data acquisition: TLM videos of the cells in the MPS and IODC measurements.4. Data Analysis: optimise processing strategies for TLM and IODC data to leverage the various signals available for evaluating therapy efficacy.The action will bring: (1) a new MPS, mimicking cancer in the bone perivascular niche, overcoming literature’s limitations; (2) a novel IODC platform probing cell’s electro-mechanical features; (3) a first-time combination of TLM and IODC measurements in MPS. The principal objective of this action will be the realization of a multimodal platform for anti-cancer bone-metastases drug-efficacy evaluation (4), combining TLM video, IODC with a minimum of 10^3 cells/s, and data analysis reaching 95% accuracy o
