Development and production of gluten-free flour blends with a reduced glycemic index

The proposing company, Molino Favero, has recently developed samples of innovative gluten-free flour mixtures based on rice and corn that after receiving a particular thermal treatment have happened to display a very low content of carbohydrates (about 30% instead of the usual 70%). This combination of gluten-free and low-carb properties is unique among existing flour products. Not only these new mixes maintain unaltered its benefits for people suffering from celiac disease but they will also be highly beneficial to prevent obesity (or overweight) and diabetes, which in the EU affect around 50% and 9% of total population respectively.
Developing a new variety of advanced gluten-free low-carb flour mixtures and producing them in tradable amounts will require developing new flour-processing technology, incorporating the advanced thermal treatment that allows reducing the low-carb index.
Our objective is that MOLYCEMIC flours will account for about 5% of the total EU gluten-free flour market within 5 years after commercialization, which will increase Molino Favero`s turnover by 50%.

Minorities and tourism - development of tourist attractions and joint promotion of the cross-border territory

“MIN-TOUR” stems from the shared need to enhance the tourist resources available to the Italian minority in Slovenia and the Slovenian minority in Italy. A detailed analysis of the needs of this territory and of its tourist development opportunities must aim at the enhancement, the consolidation and the improvement of tourist activities in the whole area, with a view to environmental sustainability, differentiation and innovation of tourist products, thus contributing to enhancing the natural, historical, and cultural heritage of the area where the Minorities reside. The aim is to create a tourist offer reconciling economic development and the protection of the environmental ecosystem, using and improving the existing infrastructures, promoting innovative tourist services and enhancing some interesting destinations which so far have been neglected. The offer is presented jointly, highlighting the peculiarity of the territory and its connection with the local population. Following the mapping of available naturalistic, historical cultural and artistic resources, through the active participating of the organisations representing the two Minorities, tourist packages will be created for a stay of one to six days.
Advanced method of detection of unnecessary conflicts of traffic flows

Relations between the traffic flows in intersections are one of the causes of reduced throughput. Avoiding the unnecessary conflicts and reduction of breakage of traffic flows are one of the possible significant factors that may favorably affect the increase in intersection capacity. Relationships among the traffic flows in the form of unnecessary conflicts occur mainly at intersections, and also on roads between intersections, and are caused by the organization and direction of traffic flow in the network. For advanced identification of unnecessary intersections, modern IT solutions are used as a novelty approach in research and visualisation of this phenomenon. The goal of this research is to create a computer tool based on open source technologies that use data stored in a GIS environment about the movement of the users within the transport network for identification of unnecessary conflicts by monitoring the flow of vehicles and deviations in speed. Further development and research will be focused on creating algorithms for automatic identification of unnecessary conflicts based on gathered input data.
Chemical and Electrochemical Differences in Nonaqueous Li–O<sub>2</sub> and Na–O<sub>2</sub> Batteries

We present a comparative study of nonaqueous Li-O2 and Na-O2 batteries employing an ether-based electrolyte. The most intriguing difference between the two batteries is their respective galvanostatic charging overpotentials: a Na-O2 battery exhibits a low overpotential throughout most of its charge, whereas a Li-O2 battery has a low initial overpotential that continuously increases to very high voltages by the end of charge. However, we find that the inherent kinetic Li and Na-O2 overpotentials, as measured on a flat glassy carbon electrode in a bulk electrolysis cell, are similar. Measurement of each batteries' desired product yield, YNaO2 and YLi2O2, during discharge and rechargeability by differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS) indicates that less chemical and electrochemical decomposition occurs in a Na-O2 battery during the first Galvanostatic discharge-charge cycle. We therefore postulate that reactivity differences (Li2O2 being more reactive than NaO2) between the major discharge products lead to the observed charge overpotential difference between each battery.
Investigation of defects in Gd doped GaN using thermally stimulated current spectroscopy

Abstract Defects in Gd-doped GaN layers are investigated using thermally stimulated current spectroscopy (TSC). The line-shape function, which commonly considers a delta function like density of state for the trap levels, is modified to take into account broad trap distributions. This function is used to fit the spectra which show two broad TSC features in all Gd-doped samples. The feature associated with the trap distribution peaking at about 45 meV from the band edge (TSC-1) can be attributed to unintentional oxygen donors, while the second feature for which the distribution peaks at ≈ 130 meV (TSC-2) from the band edge is assigned to the defects resulting due to Gd incorporation as the intensity of this feature increases with the Gd concentration. However, only a portion of the TSC-2 band, which is estimated to have an activation energy of 240 meV, is substantially reduced upon annealing at 800 °C. The annealing also results in a complete suppression of the magnetization. This implies that the observed magnetization is likely to be resulting from the defects associated with this portion of TSC-2 band. Furthermore, the energetic position of this portion of TSC-2 band (240 meV) matches very well with the activation energy ( ≈ 200 meV ) for the low temperature PL peak at 3.05 eV, which has already been attributed to the defects responsible for the observed magnetic behavior. This suggests that both the TSC and the PL features are resulting from the same defect type and therefore, could provide a vital clue in the search for the exact nature of the defect responsible.
Optimization of WEDM Process Parameters of Hybrid Composites (A413 / B<sub>4</sub>C / Fly Ash) Using Grey Relational Analysis

This paper presents an optimum method to find the significant parameters affecting Wire Electrical Discharge machining (WEDM) performance using Grey relational analysis. A413 Aluminium Alloy reinforced with 20 microns of Boron Carbide and 75 microns of Fly Ash, hybrid composites was fabricated using stir casting technique. Experiments have been conducted with the process parameters like pulse on time, pulse off time, wire feed, gap voltage and weight percentage reinforcement with three different levels. The influence of each parameter on the responses material removal rate and surface roughness is established using analysis of variances (ANOVA). The optimal machining-parameters setting for minimum surface roughness and maximum material removal rate was obtained by applying Grey relational analysis.
Development of multi-source micro energy harvesting power management devices

Many IoT market leaders incl. ARM Holdings (the world's leading semiconductor IP supplier) predict that the IoT will begin to free itself from battery power in 2018.  Without reducing the reliance on battery power, there is a significant roadblock in reaching trillions of devices. Future devices will need to be self-sufficient and operate without any battery swaps or any human intervention for decades. This will be made possible through harvesting of all the available ambient energy in the environment, for example:
Thermal energy associated with static and dynamic temperature differences;
Vibration energy e.g. from vehicles driving over a bridge or oil following through a pipe;
Light energy from indoor artificial lighting. 
For these predictions to be realised, the current roadblock is micro energy harvesting systems that can effectively capture all available energy using just one energy management device. The technical challenge is that these ambient energy sources have widely different electrical characteristics that must be managed e.g: photovoltaic and thermoelectric harvesters are low-voltage DC, resistive, “trickle” sources; electrodynamic harvesters are high-voltage, inductive, “pulsed” sources whilst piezoelectric harvesters are high-voltage AC, capacitive, “bursty” sources.
Trameto is a UK-based fabless semiconductor business that is focusing on bringing ‘HarvestAll’ to market. HarvestAll enables energy harvesting from any-single harvester type, many-identical harvesters and multiple-different harvester types. This functionality is not currently available in the market. This project will help us to: further strengthen our market understanding, formalise existing and build new relationships with partners across the energy harvesting ecosystem to develop our supply chain and routes to market. This project will take us closer to having an exploitable technology that will achieve an ROI of 13.9:1 through sales of our novel energy management chip.
BK potassium channel modulation by leucine-rich repeat-containing proteins

Molecular diversity of ion channel structure and function underlies variability in electrical signaling in nerve, muscle, and nonexcitable cells. Regulation by variable auxiliary subunits is a major mechanism to generate tissue- or cell-specific diversity of ion channel function. Mammalian large-conductance, voltage- and calcium-activated potassium channels (BK, K Ca 1.1) are ubiquitously expressed with diverse functions in different tissues or cell types, consisting of the pore-forming, voltage- and Ca 2+ -sensing α-subunits (BKα), either alone or together with the tissue-specific auxiliary β-subunits (β1–β4). We recently identified a leucine-rich repeat (LRR)-containing membrane protein, LRRC26, as a BK channel auxiliary subunit, which causes an unprecedented large negative shift (∼140 mV) in voltage dependence of channel activation. Here we report a group of LRRC26 paralogous proteins, LRRC52, LRRC55, and LRRC38 that potentially function as LRRC26-type auxiliary subunits of BK channels. LRRC52, LRRC55, and LRRC38 produce a marked shift in the BK channel’s voltage dependence of activation in the hyperpolarizing direction by ∼100 mV, 50 mV, and 20 mV, respectively, in the absence of calcium. They along with LRRC26 show distinct expression in different human tissues: LRRC26 and LRRC38 mainly in secretory glands, LRRC52 in testis, and LRRC55 in brain. LRRC26 and its paralogs are structurally and functionally distinct from the β-subunits and we designate them as a γ family of the BK channel auxiliary proteins, which potentially regulate the channel’s gating properties over a spectrum of different tissues or cell types.

Engineering ligand-receptor interactions for molecular communications

Molecular Communications (MC) is the nature’s way of networking at nanoscale, observed in almost all biological systems, including bacterial populations and nervous system. MC has been widely studied to enable the networks of artificial nanoscale devices promoting new high-impact applications such as intrabody continuous health monitoring with mobile nanosensor networks. At the core of the natural MC systems lies the ligand-receptor (LR) binding interactions, which provide the selectivity of information transfer. Likewise, LR interactions are essential for artificial MC systems to have a selective and reliable channel/receiver interface in the form of a biorecognition layer consisting of ligand receptors. Recent studies have revealed the dramatic impact of LR interactions on the overall MC performance in terms of channel bandwidth, molecular interference, receiver sensitivity and dynamic range, posing a multi-objective optimisation problem. The aim of REINFORMATION is to understand, optimise and engineer the LR interactions for high data-rate and reliable MC systems. To this end, the project will first deliver a realistic theoretical modelling and optimisation framework for MC accompanied by a microfluidic experimental test and validation platform with graphene aptasensor-based MC receivers. The framework will provide the first experimentally validated micro/nanoscale MC models, and enable the optimisation of binding affinity and kinetic rates of LR interactions from the MC perspective. The optimisation results will guide the rational design of new aptamer receptors for target information-carrying proteins, which will then be implemented on the experimental platform. The project will finally provide novel MC modulation and detection techniques, exploiting the LR interactions for high data-rate and reliable MC. Combining expertise in MC, nanotechnology, and computational biology, the project will remove a major barrier to the development of practical MC applications.
METHOD OF DRYING A FIBER WEB, AND ARRANGEMENT IN A FIBER WEB DRYING APPARATUS

The invention relates to a method of drying a fiber web and an arrangement in a fiber web drying apparatus, the fiber web (5) being dried between two tight bands (1, 2) that move in parallel in the same direction and turn around turning rolls (6a, 6b; 7a, 7b). The first band (1) is heated and the second band (2) is cooled. The fiber web (5) is guided through a drying zone, defined by the bands (1, 2), with at least one felt or wire (3, 4), so that the fiber web comes into contact with the surface of the first, heated band (1) and the felt or wire (3, 4) is between the fiber web (5) and the second, cooled band (2). The position of the edge of the band (1, 2) is measured by means of a sliding block (11) which is brought into contact with the edge of the band, the material of the sliding block (11) being substantially harder than that of the band (1, 2).
Outcrop to subsurface stratigraphic analysis of the Niobrara Formation, Sand Wash Basin, Colorado, An

The Niobrara Formation is an unconventional oil and gas play containing continuous petroleum accumulations. In the Sand Wash Basin, historical production from the formation has largely occurred at the flanks of the basin from vertical wells that were drilled into swarms of natural fractures associated with Laramide deformation. However, as oil and gas companies explore further basinward, away from natural fracture swarms, the understanding of lateral and stratigraphic variations in mineralogy and TOC in the Niobrara Formation is critical for successful future development. This study combines information gathered from core descriptions, outcrop descriptions, XRD analysis, XRF analysis, geochemical data, and electric well log data to describe how the Niobrara Formation changes from a chalkier lithology in the eastern region of deposition to a marlier lithology in the western region of deposition. Based on the whole rock and well log data analyzed, peak carbonate deposition and TOC preservation in the Niobrara Formation of the Sand Wash Basin are interpreted to be associated with periods of maximum transgression. These periods occur in the Buck Peak Bench, Tow Creek Bench, and (to a lesser extent) the Wolf Mountain Bench. Peak TOC preservation also correlates to a discrete mineral assemblage in both the Sand Wash and DJ Basins (50 wt.% carbonates, 30 wt.% clays, and 20 wt.% quartz). This mineral assemblage represents the optimal conditions for the preservation of TOC in the Western Interior Seaway during the deposition of the Niobrara Formation. Consequently, the most prospective lateral targets in the Niobrara Formation appear to be associated with maximum transgressive events in the Buck Peak Bench and Tow Creek Bench, and possibly in the Wolf Mountain Bench. These intervals are predicted to be both high quality sources and reservoirs in the formation. The high TOC values associated with these intervals suggest favorable conditions for hydrocarbon generation. Additionally, the high carbonate content suggests favorable brittleness characteristics that make the rocks prone to fracturing (both naturally and from hydraulic stimulation).
Analytical model of surface depletion in GaAs nanowires

Poisson's equation is solved to provide a comprehensive model of nanowire (NW) surface depletion as a function of interface state density, NW radius, and doping density. This model improves upon established theory by giving distinct solutions to the cases of full and partial NW depletion while implementing the charge neutrality level and accurate Fermi-Dirac statistics. To explain the underlying physics, key parameters were plotted as a function of both interface state density and NW radius, showing interesting features such as the lowering of the Fermi level in fully depleted NWs and marked increase in surface depletion width and built-in surface potential (relative to a planar film equivalent) in partially depleted NWs. Finally, examination of NW conductivity found that for NWs of radius acrit, the minimum NW radius before which the entire NW is depleted, conductivity can be reduced by up to 95% relative to bulk. Additionally, majority carrier inversion is predicted to occur in thin NWs.

A reflection matrix (10a) having a mirror arrangement which can be deformed in a controlled manner is preferably used as an illumination matrix (10, 10a, 10b).
From wrecks of ancient life to natural laboratories: cave organisms as a testing ground for studying repeatability and predictability in evolution.

Predicting evolution is one of the major aims of evolutionary biologists. Convergent evolution—the independent outcome of similar traits in distinct lineages—occurs frequently in nature at every level of biological organization in distinct evolutionary lineages. In this context, convergence has been considered to play contrasting roles in shaping biodiversity patterns. The success of colonizing and thriving in a new environment strongly depends on the existence, or lack, of specialized traits that ensure survival in it, a phenomenon referred to as environmental filtering. Thus, organisms adapted to extreme environmental conditions provide an ideal framework to study repeatability in evolution and, ultimately, to test for predictability, the ability to match a priori specialized traits to specific environmental conditions. Subterranean extreme environmental conditions exert strong selective pressure on strict cave-dwelling organisms which, respond by evolving a similar suit of phenotypic and physiological traits. The main aim of this project is to investigate whether environmental selective pressures, determine patterns of genomic convergent evolution in obligate cave-dwelling organisms. I will use an interdisciplinary approach, integrating field research, available ecological and phenotypic data, and newly generated genomic information to investigate the genomic bases of convergent evolution in cave-dwelling organisms. For this, I propose to investigate i) the genomic basis of adaptation to different subterranean microhabitats, ii) the speciation mechanisms in subterranean species, and iii) the causes of phylogenetic constrain on microhabitat preference. This project will give an unprecedented understanding of repeated evolution. Additionally, the results obtained may have far-reaching implications for medicine and conservation biology, of great relevance to several H2020 Focus Areas.
