SIRIS-Lab/unlabelled-sti-corpus huggingface dataset:
Innovative and efficient solution, based on modular, versatile, smart process units for energy and resource flexibility in highly energy intensive processes

The project aims to design, develop and validate an innovative solution, the CIRMET solution, to provide energy and resource flexibility to Energy Intensive Industries (EIIs)
The CIRMET solution will be validated in an operational environment (TRL7) in an existing process plant (non-ferrous sector) while the replicability of the solution will be assessed in three additional energy intensive sectors (steel, cement and water sector). For this purpose, three new demonstrators will be build up, plus the retrofitting of existing industry process unit. The new demonstrators or modules will be: EFFIMELT furnace, a new concept of flexible and modular process unit for industrial wastes treatment, RECUWASTE heat recovery unit, for flue gas heat recovery and transformation into compressed air to re-used in the same plant, having also the possibility of storing the excess energy and AFF40 (Analytic For Factory 4.0) platform, to improve process plant competitiveness, to increase energy and resource efficiency by controlling and optimizing process units. The retrofitting of an existing process unit (Metallo S.L process furnace) will be done to implement and validate the complete CIRMET solution.
A well-balanced consortium formed by academia, research organization, SMEs and energy intensive industries ensures the whole value chain needed to achieve project objectives and paves the way for future exploitation of the solution. The effective dissemination of project outcomes to the current and next generation of citizen and employees through the development of learning resources with flexible usage to be carried out by education/training experts within the consortium is eventually also an important objective of the consortium.
Physarum sensor: biosensor for citizen scientists

Imperative utilization of biosensors has acquired paramount importance in the field of drug discovery, biomedicine, food safety standards, defense, security, and environmental monitoring. This has led to the invention of precise and powerful analytical tools using biological sensing element as biosensor. PhyChip has demonstrated an effective and practical technology for using the slime mould Physarum polycephalum as a living transducer in mechanical, optical and chemical sensors. The slime mould maps a wide range of volatile chemicals, tactile stimuli and light of various wavelengths into unique combinations of frequency and amplitude of oscillations of extracellular electrical potential. Given an unknown stimulus one can infer about nature  of the stimulus from the frequency and amplitude of the electrical potential oscillations. PhySense will transform the “lab based” techniques of the slime mould hybrid sensors into `everyday’ use in a cost effective and user friendly format by designing, manufacturing and selling the bio-sensors to research centres, universities, schools and laymen enthusiasts. In addition to making the technology accessible to both the general public and non-specialists this transformative project will establish an online portal capable of collecting and sharing millions of measurements. Recent work by our group has already developed a working prototype --- based on low cost electronics and bespoke software --- which demonstrate the paradigm shift which this project offers. Citizen participation will be used to leapfrog years of traditional research catapulting Europe in the driving seat of this exciting new scientific frontier of living technologies in sensing and computing.
Image-guided Radiation Therapy for Liver Tumors

To describe the safety and efficacy of single-fraction and hypofractionated image-guided radiotherapy techniques for the treatment of large liver tumors.Forty-six patients, with 50 tumors (10 primary liver tumors, 40 liver metastases) from March 2004 to March 2011 were reviewed. The maximal tumor diameter ranged from 1.2 to 11.3 cm (median, 4.2 cm). Eighty-seven percent of patients received prior systemic chemotherapy. Fifty-nine percent had prior invasive local therapy including surgery, ablation, or embolization. Twenty-five lesions were treated with hypofractionated therapy (24 to 30 Gy in 3 to 5 fractions), whereas 19 received a single fraction (18 or 24 Gy). Local control (LC) was calculated using competing risk analysis. Overall survival was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method.Median follow-up for all patients was 29.8 months (range, 3 to 46 mo). The median survival was 15.4 months. The 1- and 2-year LC rates were 78% and 75%, respectively. Dose and tumor size had no significant effect on tumor progression. The local progression at 1 and 2 years was 29% and 32% for gastrointestinal (GI) histologies versus 0% for non-GI histologies (P=0.02). Tumor volumes larger than 112 cm correlated with decreased survival (P=0.05). Three patients developed late grade 3 GI stricture or ulceration.Image-guided radiotherapy for liver tumors achieves good rates of LC with minimal toxicity at 1 and 2 years even in patients with large or recurrent disease that has been heavily pretreated. GI histology demonstrated decreased LC rates. Further management strategies should be considered in these patients.

INTERNAL BALLOON ILLUMINATION APPARATUS FOR AND METHOD

An apparatus for illuminating a balloon from within includes an illumination assembly mounted on a power supply unit. The assembly includes a hollow cylindrical body having a light source (e.g., LED) disposed at one end and electrical inputs protruding from another end. The body of the power supply unit is provided at one end thereof with a shoulder flange and cylindrical spacer to facilitate sealing of the balloon against the assembly. The power supply unit receives power from a power source (e.g., battery), and supplies power to circuitry for controlling the light source. Preferably, the assembly, made of light-weight plastic materials, together with the power source, weighs less than the lift of a helium-filled balloon in which it may be installed.
DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING THE PHASE ANGLE BETWEEN A FIRST AND A SECOND CRANKSHAFT

The present invention relates to a device for regulating the phase angle between a first and a second crankshaft of an internal combustion engine. Said internal combustion engine comprises primary cylinders which communicate with secondary cylinders and in every primary cylinder there is movably arranged a primary piston which is connected to the first crankshaft and in every secondary cylinder there is movably arranged a secondary piston which is connected to the second crankshaft. Said first and second crankshafts are connected to each other by means of a transmission with the device comprising a crankshaft extension for obtaining the control of the phase angle, said extension being fixed against rotation and displaceably connected to one of said crankshafts and via a grooved portion rotationally connected to the second of said crankshafts. When the crankshaft extension in displaced rotation is obtained in said grooved portion which results in a corresponding phase angle shift.
SPORTS DEVICE FOR MUSCLE TRAINING

With existing fitness equipment, the rotational movement of the seat or upper part is not initiated in the region of the abdominal muscles, or only partly so, and as a result muscles other than the abdominal muscles are induced to contract. The muscle-training device proposed by the invention is designed to enable the abdominal muscles to be developed in optimum fashion, independently of other muscles. To this end, the lower part (10) and the upper part (20) of the device are designed so that they can be counterrotated back and forth with respect to the frame (30), both being acted on by counterrotatory torques. This arrangement makes the device particularly suitable for bodybuilding, fitness training and rehabilitation work.
Modeling and simulation of the comb structure in the presence of imperfections

Comb structures are widely used in MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical-System) devices, especially in MEMS gyroscope, which is used for electrostatic actuation or capacitive detection. This paper has studied the behavior of non-ideal comb structures. As the presence of fabrication imperfections, the defects like tilting and inclination of the finger are generated due to ICP etching. In this research, FEM (finite element method) model is built to simulate the behavior of comb structures. Impact of tilting of the comb finger is analyzed. For ideal comb structure, the electrostatic force should be applied exactly in drive direction (x-direction) and be independent of the displacement in this direction. When the comb finger has a tilting angle, the simulation result shows the electrostatic force will deflect the drive direction and be coupled to the displacement in drive direction. In addition, tilting of fingers results in large electrostatic forces in y-direction. The impact of inclination of comb finger is analyzed both in theory and simulation. The results indicate that the comb structure also provides displacement-independent electrostatic forces in drive direction under fingers inclination condition. However, the inclination result in fluctuation of drive force. The simulation results also indicate that with the increase of inclination angles, the fluctuation of drive force will become more serious and the out-of-plane forces will be larger, which may cause failure of MEMS devices.

Resilient transport infrastructure to extreme events

The overall goal of RESIST is to increase the resilience of seamless transport operation to natural and man-made extreme events, protect the users of the European transport infrastructure and provide optimal information to the operators and users of the transport infrastructure. 
The project will address extreme events on critical structures, implemented in the case of bridges and tunnels attacked by all types of extreme physical, natural and man-made incidents, and cyber-attacks. The RESIST technology will be deployed and validated at 2 pilots in real conditions and infrastructures. 
RESIST will use risk analyses and leverage and further develop recent exploitable research results in robotics, driving under panic, sensing and communications, to dramatically improve the speed and effectiveness, while reducing the cost, of structural vulnerability assessment, situation awareness, response operations and increased users’ protection under extreme events towards a high level of resilience of the transport infrastructure at 3 levels: a) increased physical resilience of bridges/tunnels by robotic inspection and predictive analytics; b) restoration of services/routes back to normal quickly and permission of a continuous flow of passengers and freight across different modes of transport soon after an extreme event, which will be achieved by rapid and accurate robotic damage assessment after extreme physical events, cyber security solutions, alternative secure and continuous communication under emergency operations (including integration of terrestrial and satellite systems) and increased cross-modal flexibility; c) clear and effective communication of transport operators and users, emergency responders and the public in the vicinity, to minimise the impact of the disruption on people and businesses, by exploiting real-time data, available networks, social media and mobile technologies to allow for real-time emergency information dissemination.
Validation of open organ-on-chip technology for end user applications

Organ-on-Chips, and more general microphysiological systems, are believed to revolutionize the way we develop drugs or select personalized therapies. Recapitulating human response both from healthy and diseased individuals potentially even enables ‘clinical trials in-a-dish’. While research in this field is thriving and commercial start-ups have been founded, adoption from end users is staying behind due to a number of reasons: i) lack of standardization making chips not compatible with each other, ii) lack of automation which limits the throughput and user-friendliness of the systems and iii) lack of support for sensor integration. The Twente Organ-on-Chip Platform (TOP) is designed to overcome these hurdles and has been developed for internal use during the ERC project VESCEL. During interaction with other researchers and companies within the Organ-on-Chip field they expressed their interest in a more standardized, automated platform that also supports sensor integration. Since it would require a number of steps for them to be able to use the platform in their existing environment we here suggest the ‘open-TOP’ ERC Proof of Concept project where we aim to commercialize the application of the Twente Organ-on-Chip Platform (TOP) and facilitate end users to use TOP in real world contexts. To reach this objective we need to develop a robust interconnect, validate and identify difficulties in making a third party chip TOP-compatible, validate the use of TOP for a biological experiment and finally determine the commercialization strategy for TOP. We believe TOP can help more end users to adopt Organ-on-Chip as a technology in their lab because in contrast to current setups, the open technology of TOP supports chips from third parties are inter compatible, multiplexable and controlled automatically. If ‘open-TOP’ is granted, TOP will be the standardized Organ-on-Chip infrastructure allowing users to stop worrying about control systems and only focus on chips and biology.
N, N′-Dicyclohexyl-N″-Isotridecylguanidine as Suppressor for the Next Generation Caustic Side Solvent Extraction (NG-CSSX) Process

The purity, concentration, and source of the N,N′-dicyclohexyl-N″-isotridecylguanidine (DCiTG) suppressor (guanidine) used in the NG-CSSX process were found to influence solvent performance. As the starting isotridecanol used in the preparation of DCiTG is comprised of a mixture of branched-chain aliphatic alcohols, varying in composition with manufacturer, the resulting DCiTG itself is a mixture. Thus, it is necessary to address how the solvent performance will be affected by the different preparations of the DCiTG solvent component. In this study, four preparations of DCiTG from three sources were analyzed and evaluated for purity and performance, both in the absence and presence of a deliberately added anionic surfactant impurity.
Synthesis and Structural Characterization of 9-Azido-9-Borafluorene: Monomer and Cyclotrimer of a Borole Azide

The reaction of 2,2'-dilithiobiphenyl, generated from 2,2'-dibromobiphenyl and n-BuLi, with BCl(3) using n-hexane as solvent provides a high-yielding, simple preparative route to 9-chloro-9-borafluorene 1a. This in turn can be reacted with trimethylsilyl azide to yield 9-azido-9-borafluorene 2. Compound 2 exists as a cyclic trimer in the solid state, but in dichloromethane solution the monomer can coexist with the trimer. Azide 2 is rather unstable both in the solid state and in solution, and it transforms with trace amounts of water and oxygen to the 1,3,5-tris(2-biphenylyl)cyclotriboroxane that was characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. Addition of pyridine and t-butyl pyridine to azide 2 afford the corresponding pyridine adducts. Compound 1a as well as the Lewis base adducts of 2 have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, and the structures were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. The structural features of azide 2 and the strong Lewis acidity of its boron center have also been investigated by computational chemistry techniques at the MP2 level of theory.
Mass, heat and spin transport in interlinked quantum gases

The objective of the proposed project is to create a versatile experimental and methodological platform for exploring transport mechanisms with quantum gases. Our approach will enable studying the dynamics of mass, heat and spin transport between linked reservoirs with a unique degree of control and flexibility, and promises to open up a route to discovering yet-unknown transport phenomena.

Over the past two decades, ultracold atomic quantum gases have taken an increasingly lively role in the endeavour to understand quantum many-body systems, offering insights into a wide range of quantum phases and transitions between them. Recently, the approach has proven its potential to take us beyond the simulation of existing concepts and to provide a platform for probing the physics of quantum many-body systems in novel contexts. In particular, we have shown that measurements of directed transport through channels connecting atomic reservoirs not only emulate scenarios known form electronic transport in solid-state systems, but can test new experimental situations and give rise to new questions.

We now propose to establish a general quantum-gas platform for exploring a wide range of configurations for transport measurements. Specifically, we will study the non-equilibrium dynamics in systems consisting of connected fermionic quantum-gas nodes, which serve as particle reservoirs of different size, shape and dimensionality that can be individually initialized and coupled to one another using configurable links. Time-dependent drive or controlled dissipation can be applied to the nodes and links. Using such networks, we will study transport between reservoirs of different nature, probe superfluid samples with controlled particle currents, characterize transport processes at the interface of different quantum phases, search for superfluidity in driven systems, prepare and detect Majorana fermions and develop functionality in complex structures.
Investigating the role of attention in reading

Reading is undoubtedly one of the most important cognitive skills in modern societies; yet, despite decades of reading research, some critical issues remain poorly understood. Given that the reading process is cognitively multi-faceted (involving linguistic processing, oculo-motor processing, memory and attention), getting to understand the reading process in full is by definition an interdisciplinary endeavour.
    Therefore, striking an interdisciplinary alliance between the fields of reading and attention, this project's mission is to increase understanding of the role of attention in reading (ROAR). Specifically, this project aims to answer the question of how attention is distributed across the visual field during reading, and how attention is used to organize incoming linguistic information. Moreover, this project offers a novel attention-based perspective on reading problems and dyslexia, along with a practical application to help remedy such problems. In short, getting to grips with how attention operates in reading may be key to solving several long-standing questions.
    This project comprises state-of-the-art electro-encephalography and eye-tracking techniques that will provide novel means to investigate attention in reading. Moreover, a recently developed reading interface, geared at facilitating word recognition by reducing interference from surrounding words, will be upgraded and tested with dyslexic readers. Thus, this project is perfectly placed in the Goldilocks zone between fundamental research and practical applicability.
