INformation DEvelopment

The aim of the Information Development project (INDE) was to assist the candidate countries belonging to the CADSES area in developing instruments for transnational co-operation and in finding out solutions for the problems related to the enlargement process. Co-operation is the key factor for the development of the CADSES area and helps to balance economic and social disadvantages related to the enlargement process by creating new job opportunities. The main strategic objectives of the project were to identify the requirements and conditions to spread productive clusters and local systems of SMEs in the involved geographical area, to strengthen sustainable development, to co-operate between intermediary institutions, to create SMEs assistance centres through public-private partnerships with a strong territorial and/or sectoral scope providing basic and specialised services to business, and to develop methods of territorial and sectoral marketing for promoting access to knowledge and exchange of products to be supplied to the information society. The activities of the project were divided into five work packages: - The first work package contained all the actions concerning the macro-economic analysis of the CADSES area. - The second work package aimed at establishing a technological infrastructure in order to improve the collaboration and integration between different regions. One of the main actions of this work package was the creation of the www.cavirc.net platform. - The third work package contained actions related to the diffusion of e-networks in order to develop competition, e.g. with www.interegionet.net. - The fourth work package aimed at promoting the courses offered by the project partner 6, IAL, that organised traineeships and workshops and supported the participants with special technical assistance. - The final work package contained actions related to the dissemination of the information on the enlargement process.
Smart morphing and  sensing

Smart Morphing & Sensing is a multidisciplinary project associating novel electroactive actuators and sensors to increase aerodynamic efficiency and attenuate vibrations and noise. This is achieved via aerostructural morphing exploiting the real-time information from the distributed actuation and sensing systems. This goal is achieved by actuating the smart-materials to deform the structure according to optimum shape design by means of Flight Control Commands. The novel “intelligent material” technology is a hybrid association of small piezo-actuators distributed along the control surface, of Shape Memory Alloys and of Electroactive Polymers, disposed under the ‘skin’ of the active structure. This novel hybrid design allows associating fast time response and vibrational actuation with simultaneous high deformation ability. The ability in capturing energy from the already existing vibrations and redistributing it in the actuation will be used to partially supply the system and therefore ensure an economic and realistic morphing. This is beyond the cutting edge of the state of the art in morphing concepts. The use of novel distributed pressure sensors based on fiber Bragg grating provides real-time information on the actuation performance and the flight situation enabling an efficient in-situ optimization using a dedicated controller interfacing the actuators with the fiber based sensors. Aerodynamic and structural experiments are included to demonstrate the abilities of the new integrated smart sensing and morphing design via real-time actuation. High-fidelity aeroelastic computations are used to optimize the actuators location and function. The experiments will study the increase of the aerodynamic efficiency in cruise, take-off and landing by controlling the turbulence structure responsible for noise and vibration. The main configuration will be based on the Airbus A320 type wing with morphing flap.

Child-Robot communication and collaboration: edutainment, behavioural modelling and cognitive development in typically developing and autistic spectrum children

The crowning achievement of human communication is our unique ability to share intentionality, create and execute on joint plans.  Using this paradigm we model human-robot communication as a three step process: sharing attention, establishing common ground and forming shared goals.  Prerequisites for successful communication are being able to decode the cognitive state of people around us (mindreading) and building trust.  Our main goal is to create robots that analyze and track human behavior over time in the context of their surroundings (situational) using audio-visual monitoring in order to establish common ground and mind-reading capabilities.  On BabyRobot we focus on the typically developing and autistic spectrum children user population.  Children have unique communication skills, are quick and adaptive learners, eager to embrace new robotic technologies.  This is especially relevant for special eduation where the development of social skills is delayed or never fully develops without intervention or therapy.  Thus our second goal is to define, implement and evaluate child-robot interaction application scenarios for developing specific socio-affective, communication and collaboration skills in typically developing and autistic spectrum children.  We will support not supplant the therapist or educator, working hand-in-hand to create a low risk environment for learning and cognitive development. Breakthroughs in core robotic technologies are needed to support this research mainly in the areas of motion planning and control in constrained spaces, gestural kinematics, sensorimotor learning and adaptation. Our third goal is to push beyond the state-of-the-art in core robotic technologies to support natural human-robot interaction and collaboration for edutainment and healthcare applications.  Creating robots that can establish communication protocols and form collaboration plans on the fly will have impact beyond the application scenarios investigated here.
Techniques for the experimental investigation of the protein corona

Due to its enormous relevance the corona formation of adsorbed proteins around nanoparticles is widely investigated. A comparison of different experimental techniques is given. Direct measurements of proteins, such as typically performed with mass spectrometry, will be compared with indirect analysis, in which instead information about the protein corona is gathered from changes in the properties of the nanoparticles. The type of measurement determines also whether before analysis purification from unbound excess proteins is necessary, which may change the equilibrium, or if measurements can be performed in situ without required purification. Pros and contras of the different methods will be discussed.
Cell circuits as targets and biomarkers for liver disease and cancer prevention

Chronic liver diseases such as liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are major challenges for global health. HCC is the second leading and fastest rising cause of cancer death worldwide. The limited availability of therapeutic options reflects our poor understanding of the molecular and clinical mechanisms involved in progression of liver disease. Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a main risk factor for HCC. Although HCC may be avoided by addressing the underlying cause in early stage disease, strategies to prevent HCC in patients with established cirrhosis and advanced fibrosis, in which the risk of HCC persists despite treatment of the underlying cause are lacking. Indeed, even HCV cure does not eliminate the risk of HCC development when advanced fibrosis is already present. Since fibrosis/cirrhosis-driven carcinogenesis is the mechanism of HCC development common to all major etiologies, we propose to use HCV-induced liver disease as a model to decipher the pan-etiology sequence of molecular events underlying disease progression and HCC. Our own data provide solid evidence that HCV infection alters pathways implicated in liver disease progression, including cirrhosis deterioration, HCC development, and overall and liver-specific death. Thus, the molecular investigation of these pathways will identify key cell circuits for the understanding of the pathogenesis of liver disease and HCC in general, and as broadly applicable pan-etiology diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Using a novel patient-derived cell culture model system for liver disease biology combined with advanced functional genomics, novel animal models and clinical investigation, we aim to uncover the cell circuits that are of clinical relevance for liver disease progression and cancer. By providing novel targets and biomarkers for liver disease and HCC prevention, this proposal will have a marked impact on the management and prognosis of patients with liver disease and HCC.
Atom-Tunneling in chemistry

Quantum mechanical tunneling of atoms is emerging as an ubiquitous phenomenon in chemistry. Every chemical reaction that includes a hydrogen transfer can be expected to be influenced by tunneling at room temperature. While simulations can monitor tunneling directly, experimental approaches can only detect the consequences. Theoretical investigations, as planned in TUNNELCHEM, have to keep up in order to aid the rational interpretation. We build on significant algorithmic breakthroughs recently achieved in the applicant's group, which allow accurate predictions of tunneling rates in larger systems than previously possible. These possibilities are to be exploited, which requires a big, combined project that can afford high-risk components.

In TUNNELCHEM, we will investigate aspects of tunneling in several different areas of chemistry: biochemistry, astrochemistry, catalysis and algorithmic development. The investigation of tunneling contributions to enzymatic reactions will allow to plan modifications which increase the selectivity and efficiency. Several astrochemical processes can only be understood if their tunneling contributions are properly accounted for. Accurate tunneling rates will significantly improve the predictive power of models of the interstellar medium. Many processes in homogenous and heterogenous catalysis involve tunneling. A fundamental understanding of the principles involved allows for the design of improved catalysts. Further development of methods and algorithms in accordance with the demands of the applications is required. TUNNELCHEM will shift the present paradigm from descriptive investigations to a rational design of catalysts enabled by a mechanistic understanding of atom tunneling processes.

Only such a combined effort may allow us to understand the principles of tunneling in chemistry and to develop concepts to exploit the tunnel effect for optimizing reactivity and selectivity of chemical reactions in biochemistry and catalysis.
Effects of 3d topographies on mechanosensing in intestine epithelial architecture and dynamics

Intestine epithelium consists of spatially segregated cells that organize into groups of various functions at different locations
of the 3D curved epithelial monolayer. How geometric cues contribute to the maintenance of the sophisticated epithelial architecture and dynamics in 3D remains unknown until now. Recently, the Ladoux's laboratory has found that EpCAM-modulated cell contractility associated with the epithelial monolayer polarity, cytoskeletal arrangement, and cell-cell adhesion in 3D context. In contrast to 2D context, the EpCAM-defective tissue shows a loss of collective cellular spatial organization and forms a disordered multi-layered epithelium when exposed to substrates of 3D topographies. In addition, Ankyrin-G and α/β-spectrin network which participates in cortical tension modulation was identified as the main interacting partner with EpCAM in epithelial cells. These observations lead us to hypothesize that EpCAM allows the tissue to sense and conform to complex 3D topographies in an orderly manner. However, the molecular mechanisms and other related functions of EpCAM-mediated mechanotransduction remain unknown. As large scale mechanosensing has been shown to occur primarily through the actin cytoskeleton which permeates the tissue to form a network, we aim to understand the interactions between the EpCAM-mediated pathway and actin modulation and/or E-cadherin adhesion sites that may allow 3D topographical sensing. Our working hypothesis is that EpCAM forms an integral part of the cellular responses to topographic cues that has a more general role in controlling epithelial architecture and dynamics through the regulation of actomyosin networks, or vice versa. Here, we propose to scrutinize EpCAM-mediated mechanotransduction by generating a platform with precise control of geometric factors and microenvironmental cues using a range of multidisciplinary approaches including microfabrication, biophysics, and advanced molecular biology techniques.

Solution of bonded bimaterial problem of two interfaces subjected to concentrated forces and couples

A closed form solution is derived for the bonded bimaterial planes at two interfaces. The bonded planes with two interfaces are symmetric with respect to the interface, which is straight. A rational mapping function and complex stress functions are used for the analysis. The problem is reduced to a Riemann-Hilbert problem. Two interfaces problem to derive the general solution is more difficult than one interface problem. As a demonstration of geometry, semi-strips bonded at two parts at the ends of strips are considered. The solution of different geometrical shapes can be obtained by changing the mapping function. Concentrated forces and couples are applied to the each strip. The first derivative of complex stress functions which does not include integral terms with regard to variable of the mapping plane is achieved. Therefore, there is no need of numerical integration to calculate stress components and to determine unknown coefficients in complex stress function. This is very benefit. All elastic constants in complex stress functions are expressed by Dundurs’ parameters. Stress distributions are shown for different lengths of the interface.
Experimental Investigations on Manufacturing Different-Shaped Bio-Inspired Drag-Reducing Morphologies and Hydrodynamic Testing

Fascinating sharkskin effect has drawn so many attentions in the recent several decades, and it been becoming more well-known since the Olympic Games in 2000, and there were many athletes wearing sharkskin swimming suit to obtain the good grades. Biological sharkskin is all covered by the tiny and stiff scales, and there are microgrooves sitting on them, which can protrude out of the viscous sublayer and reduce the wall friction. However, sharkskin effect is the imperative consequence of nature selection in a long time, which enable shark fit the living surroundings perfectly, and for expanding its application in more fields, it should be adjusted or deformed. In this research, experimental investigations on manufacturing different-shaped sharkskin morphologies are performed and the hydrodynamic drag reduction testing is conducted, the results show that deformed sharkskin morphologies can improve drag reduction effect, which has important potential applications in fluid engineering.
