Data driven computational mechanics at exascale

DCoMEX aims to provide unprecedented advances to the field of  Computational Mechanics by developing novel numerical methods enhanced by Artificial Intelligence, along with a scalable software framework that enables exascale computing. A key innovation of our project is the development of AI-Solve, a novel scalable library of AI-enhanced algorithms for the solution of large scale sparse linear system that are the core of computational mechanics. Our methods fuse physics-constrained machine learning with efficient block-iterative methods and incorporate experimental data at multiple levels of fidelity to quantify model uncertainties. Efficient deployment of these methods in exascale supercomputers will provide scientists and engineers with unprecedented capabilities for predictive simulations of mechanical systems in applications ranging from bioengineering to manufacturing. DCoMEX exploits the computational power of modern exascale architectures, to provide a robust and user friendly framework that can be adopted in many applications.  This framework is comprised of AI-Solve library integrated in two complementary computational mechanics HPC libraries. The first is a general-purpose multiphysics engine and the second a Bayesian uncertainty quantification and optimisation platform. We will demonstrate DCoMEX potential by detailed simulations in two case studies: (i) patient-specific optimization of cancer immunotherapy treatment, and (ii) design of advanced composite materials and structures at multiple scales. We envision that software and methods developed in this project can be further customized and also facilitate developments in critical European industrial sectors like medicine, infrastructure, materials, automotive and aeronautics design.

Exploring laser interaction with matters in the quantum electrodynamics regime

With the next-generation laser facilities at the 10-100 petawatt (PW) level, e.g., the EU-funded Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) facilities, the physical picture of relativistic laser-plasma interaction found so far with PW scale lasers may not be valid anymore. It enters a new regime, where at least the following distinct features are expected to appear: 1) Dense electron-positron pairs and high energy γ-photons production via quantum electrodynamics (QED) processes; 2) Significant radiation recoil during electron and positron quiver motion in laser fields; 3) As large relativistic electron mass as proton mass, representing a unique plasma state. To fully exploit and understand this highly complex system, we will investigate some fundamental problems including the propagation of ultra-relativistic laser pulses in plasma, their energy dissipation and allocation to energetic particles and photons, and their scaling to laser and target parameters. Understanding of these problems is essential in order to manipulate QED effects for advanced applications, e.g., generation of high peak flux 10GeV protons, modelling of some energetic astrophysical phenomena, etc. This system is compound with collective and kinetic nonlinearities through wave-wave interactions, wave-particle interactions, and new particle generation and annihilation via QED processes. All these will be treated in a self-consistent way by developing an advanced particle-in-cell (PIC) code with QED processes included. The researcher Wei-Min Wang has nearly 10 years of experience in developing PIC codes for various applications. He was awarded the prestigious IUPAP Young Scientist Award in Computational Physics in 2015. The proposed research and training will further bring the researcher to an independent and matured theoretician. The research achievements will provide significant support to European projects associated with the ELI facilities, which will be ready for experiments in the near future.
Study of Drainage and Percolation of Nitrogen–Water Flooding in Tight Coal by NMR Imaging

N2 flooding in pores and water percolation in fissure is analyzed in-depth to investigate the permeability reduction caused by coalbed methane displacement in low-permeability coal seam in China. Using low-field nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI), the transverse relaxation time spectrum (T2 spectrum) was carried out for tight intact and fractured coal. The T2 spectra were obtained for saturated samples containing adsorption pores (AP), percolation pores (PP), and migration pores (MP), as well as one-, two-, and three-dimensional spatial distributions of water content. The spatial distribution of the water in the displacement process of tight coal was finely characterized by low-field NMRI. Our results show that the water displacement by N2 in AP, PP, and MP requires a high to low pressure gradient and they play different functions of percolation. And the study revealed that there is no obvious gas–liquid interface during N2 flooding in tight coal. The results show that PP play an important role in water transfer and pressure transmission during the N2 flooding process, which assists in forming connected channels from nonpenetrative cracks. PP themselves can also form percolation channels and transmit pressure.
WATER SEAL OF HATCH COVER FOR SHIP

The invention relates to a hydraulic joint for a vessel hatch-cover consisting of a joint which, being made of an elastic material such as rubber and attached to the edges of the hatch-cover, is pressed, when the hatch-cover is in the closed position, against the top of the coaming in order thus to seal the hatch-cover. According to the invention, the joint 1 has, in cross-section, two cavities 2, 3, one above the other the lower 2 is smaller and is situated in the end of the joint 1, known per se, which narrows towards the bottom and the other cavity 3 is situated in the centre of the joint. The invention applies in particular to boats and vessels.
Higher anomalies, higher symmetries, and cobordisms III: QCD matter phases anew

We explore QCD$_4$ quark matter, the $\mu$-T (chemical potential-temperature) phase diagram, possible 't Hooft anomalies, and topological terms, via non-perturbative tools of cobordism theory and higher anomaly matching. We focus on quarks in 3-color and 3-flavor on bi-fundamentals of SU(3), then analyze the continuous and discrete global symmetries and pay careful attention to finite group sectors. We input constraints from $T=CP$ or $CT$ time-reversal symmetries, implementing QCD on unorientable spacetimes and distinct topology. Examined phases include the high T QGP (quark-gluon plasma/liquid), the low T ChSB (chiral symmetry breaking), 2SC (2-color superconductivity) and CFL (3-color-flavor locking superconductivity) at high density. We introduce a possibly useful but only approximate higher anomaly, involving discrete 0-form axial and 1-form mixed chiral-flavor-locked center symmetries, matched by the above four QCD phases. We also enlist as much as possible, but without identifying all of, 't Hooft anomalies and topological terms relevant to Symmetry Protected/Enriched Topological states (SPTs/SETs) of gauged SU(2) or SU(3) QCD$_d$-like matter theories in general in any spacetime dimensions $d=2,3,4,5$ via cobordism.

KArst waTER research programme

In many countries of CADSES karstic areas are important and acutely essential for public water supply. These areas are at the same time highly sensitive and valuable natural environments. Conversely, exploitation pressure on these areas is increasing. This mainly relates to such fields as tourism, settlements, transport infrastructure, forestry and pasture management. The project aims at safeguarding water supply and the required, largely natural conditions of the catchment areas. The conflicts between often incompatible land-use activities by necessity lead to effects of high relevance for regional planning. To facilitate and optimise the decision-making process relating to the problems of land use/water management/environmental protection, it seems useful to develop and implement a decision support system. This work is based on the scientific and methodological considerations derived from the results of the KATER project. The collection of data documenting the natural environment calls for the well-considered design of both data collection and measuring-station set-up. Optimising the data collection process is a key output of the project. This will be determined for the karst aquifers situated in the project territories and will be simultaneously transferable to other areas. The development of the decision support system will be based on the software developed for the KATER project (metadata and presentation tools) and will be handled by the individual project partners. Another central factor for the success of the project, but also for coping with the problems covered by it, With the help of the project the level of awareness both amongst the public at large and amongst selected target groups should raise. The relevant activities derived from the project therefore do not merely address the public at large, but also, and in particular, the competent political decision-makers, scientists, regional planners, water supply companies and administrators (conference), students and university teachers (excursions) as well as schoolchildren and their teachers ("weeks in the country").
Streamlined geriatric and oncological evaluation based on ic technology for holistic patient-oriented healthcare management for older multimorbid patients

Population is aging and the number of complex multimorbid patients to manage will increase sharply. Disease-centred approach is not appropriate to manage these patients. Change to a patient-centred approach will simplify care pathways, secure management and treatment decision making and decrease healthcare costs. It will be a real breakthrough for daily practice with multiple impacts that must be quantified. GERONTE multimorbid patient-centred system proposes:
1) Coordination of management by a patient-tailored, interdisciplinary health professional consortium (HPC), including hospital- and home-based professionals, with a case manager;
2) Timely registration of symptoms and patient-reported outcomes at home through a web-based app for anticipation of avoidable adverse events;
3) Proposal of self-management guidelines according to intrinsic capacity evaluation by geriatrician for patient-driven improvement of independent living;
4) Structured collection of data from electronic health record into a dashboard made available to HPC members as well as patient and caregiver, thanks to its capacity to securely interoperate with all electronic health records including software managing medical data.
The whole approach will be co-designed with patients, informal care givers and health professionals.
Cancer is an excellent model to develop this approach in multimorbid patients because it is frequent and commonly associated with other morbidities in older patients but also because of its major impact on patients’ general status and coexistent diseases. Cancer already benefits from a multidisciplinary management model that GERONTE will enhance, strengthening exchange of holistic data, role of primary care and case management.
GERONTE will also provide new country-specific guidelines and best practices for implementation across Europe and for improved management of older multimorbid patients including improved quality of life and independent living at decreased costs.
Hypoplasia of all paranasal sinuses A case series and Literature review

Hypoplasia of maxillary sinus is a rather rare condition. Review of literature reveal that so far only 6 cases have been reported. Hypoplasia of frontal and sphenoid sinuses has been documented rather frequently. In this article the authors report two rare cases of hypoplasia involving all paranasal sinuses which has not been reported so far in literature. This is actually an incidental finding when routine CT scan of sinuses was performed. This patient was clinically asymptomatic. Awareness of this condition is important because of implications involved in performing FESS surgery in these patients. Routine x-rays will lead to erroneous diagnosis of sinus infection because of the opacity seen in the poorly developed sinus area.
Virtual power plant for interoperable and smart islands

VPP4Islands aims to facilitate the integration of renewable systems, accelerate the transition towards smart and green energy and help Islands to exploit energy efficiency potential and innovative storage approaches, foster the active participation of citizens and become self-sufficient in energy, while reducing costs, GHG emissions and reliance on heavy fuel oil to generate power, and  creating new intelligent business, growth and local skilled jobs.
To reach these goals, VPP4Islands project proposes disruptive solutions based on digital twin concept, Virtual energy storage systems (VESS) and Distributed Ledger technology (DLT) to revolutionize the existing VPP and build smart energy communities. Based on aggregation and smart management of distributed energy resources (DERs), VPP4Islands increases the flexibility and profitability of energy systems while providing novel services. VPP4Island will also enhance the Demand Response Capability of consumers by understating their behaviors and promoting self-consumption. 
In order to validate and evaluate the proposed solutions, two use cases in real-life with diverse assets in two leading islands are planned. The control and optimization of different systems will be extended to consider not only electrical, but also multi-energy vectors. Moreover, the qualified VPP4Islands solutions will be replicated in 3 follower islands, in order to generate and initiate smart sustainable energy plans. Also, VPP4Islands will generate durable social and environmental values for the benefit of consumers/prosumers. Finally, VPP4Islands project consortium is composed of 1 large company, 1 DSO, 7 SMEs, 3 universities, 2 RTOs, 3 islands municipalities, and 2 non-profits organisation.
Mediterranean Bee Hubs in support for sustainable economic prosperity in deprived rural areas

Needless to say, bees are crucial for the environment and their number has been sharply decreasing. Their contribution to the economy cannot be underestimated either. This applies to the whole Mediterranean area, let alone to the most deprived rural regions where beekeeping is often one of the few profitable sectors. MedBEESinessHubs fully understands the stakes. The project intends to contribute to the development of an actual Mediterranean BEE-economy by connecting clusters in five countries. It will go a lot further than just producing and selling honey. A vast range of side products is concerned from cosmetics to handcrafting souvenirs and even to the consolidation of “bee-tourism”. On its way, the BEE-economy will use another abundant natural resource: youth. Young people will bring fresh BEESiness ideas while the project will pollinize them by granting financial and technical support. By the end of the journey, new products will be developed, and a sustainable cross-border network will be in place. And, on top of all this, vital bee population will be encouraged to come back to where they belong.
An IR study of 2-chlorovinyldichloroarsine transformations in aqueous media

The interaction of 2-chlorovinyldichloroarsine (α-lewisite) (I) with usual and deuterated water was studied by IR spectroscopy (7000-350 cm−1). A comparison of the corresponding IR spectra with the spectra of I and the supposed products of its destruction (2-chlorovinylarsonous acid (II), 2-chlorovinylarsine oxide (III), and 2-chlorovinylarsonic acid (IV)) obtained for the first time showed that, under the selected experimental conditions (room temperature, 30-fold molar excess of water, time of contact between the reagents up to an hour), complete destruction of α-lewisite did not occur. After an experiment, the reaction mixture consisted of an aqueous phase and a heavier fraction containing a liquid insoluble in water with an admixture of solid particles. The basic aqueous fraction element was acid II, the primary product of the hydrolysis of the toxin, with an admixture of α-lewisite. The heavy fraction was a mixture of unreacted α-lewisite and the secondary product of the hydrolysis of the toxin, oxide III.
Macro- and Micronutrient Uptake in Rice + Cowpea Production System as Influenced by Mineral Nitrogen and Crop Population

The study was aimed at evaluating macro- and micronutrient uptake of rice and cowpea when grown in sole and mixture populations under varying levels of density (5x 10 4 , 10x 10 4 and 20 x10 4 plants/ha) and nitrogen (0,15,30 and 45kgN/ha), using urea as nutrient source. Results obtained showed that uptake of nitrogen increased with increasing rates of nitrogen fertilizer in both crops used for the study. In both sole and mixture populations, 45kgN/ha (50000plants/ha) and 30kgN/ha (200000plants/ha) recorded the lowest nitrogen uptake value of 0.12 and 0.14mg/plant respectively. Mean P uptake in the second in the cropping was reduced by 35.3% over the first cropping. Medium density of 100000plants/ha gave the highest K value of 0.45mg/ha during the first cropping. Uptake of potassium, phosphorus, sodium, calcium and magnesium and microelements were generally higher in cowpea than rice. Values of zinc uptake in shoots of both rice and cowpea were very low ranging from 0.00002 to 0.000075mg/plant in rice and 0.00011 and 0.0017mg/plant in cowpea. Increasing plant population density generally depressed uptake of both macro- and microelements in both rice and cowpea. Results from this study indicate that the high plant densities reduce nutrient uptake of crops, hence farmers should select optimum densities that will maximize crop nutrition and consequently yield. Keywords: nutrient uptake, cowpea, rice, nitrogen fertilizer, plant population
Other Space Odysseys

This book presents three architectural responses to the idea of journeys through outer space in a future based on technology. After the 1969 moonwalk, Alessandro Poli with Superstudio considered it critical to imagine our environment as connected to outer space. His Architettura interplanetaria imagined a form of architecture that could be conceived and realized at the galactic scale. Polia (TM)s Architettura materiale, on the other hand, challenged the optimism of journeying so far from our centre and questioned our dependence on technology. NASAa (TM)s Jet Propulsion Laboratory is the site of one of Michael Maltzana (TM)s current projects. His goal is to bridge earthbound scientists with their work at the scale of outer space. Maltzan challenges existing architectural models for scientific research, and proposes a new type of environment to facilitate collaboration. Greg Lynn imagines a virtual challenge to our traditional way of conceiving space. He proposes original ways of thinking about design in relation to gravity and is creating a computer-based simulated environment that will allow a new kind of architectural experimentation. New City is the first such virtual world to be conceived by an architect, and provides an unprecedented geographic representation of our own world. This book will bring the reader on many journeys while questioning fundamental assumptions about architecture and space.
Management and coordination of emergencies and catastrofes without borders

The project aims to strengthen cross-border governance in the field of emergency management. The intention is to build a shared cognitive framework of rules, risks (with a focus on those related to natural hazards) and to establish a cross-border operational team. The operators of the territories will be involved through targeted training actions and included in the local emergency plans. Citizens will also be involved to better inform them in case of an alert and to educate them on safer behaviours.
New features of the glass transition revealed by the StepScan® DSC

The results of StepScan DSC obtained for various oxides, chalcogenides, and organic glasses are discussed in connection with the commonly accepted theory of the glass transition. The new experimental features supporting the apparent idea of a reversible equilibrium being a part of the glass transition that is commonly interpreted as purely kinetic-relaxation phenomenon are discussed. Two alternative methods of the description of the reversible part of StepScan DSC record are compared:the empirical one using the exponential-power function [1 − exp(T/T
g)
 n
 ], and the second one based on the van’t Hoff’s equation describing the temperature dependence of equilibrium constant in terms of reaction enthalpy, ΔH. The adequacy of the empirical description is rationalized in the framework of the Tool–Narayanaswamy–Moynihan’s relaxation theory.
