Cleantech Incubation Europe

Cleantech Incubation Europe (CIE) focuses on supporting and stimulating entrepreneurs & SME's working in the field of clean technology (green, sustainable products, services and processes). The field of cleantech is new and many municipalities and cities try to formulate stronger and more effective policies around clean tech incubators. They notice it is not only necessary to set up an incubator, but also to have complementary policies to provide a positive business climate. CIE helps authorities to chose suitable policy interventions/instruments, attuned to their own local/regional situation. CIE is based on a partnership consisting of partners from Delft (lead partner), Helsinki, Budapest, London, Peterborough, Paris and Turin. The partners are cities/municipalities, universities and incubators (founded by the authorities). The universities and the incubators work on a daily basis with local/regional policy makers to support the clean tech SME’s with their business processes.
Within the project these policy makers will attend the seminars as well and share their experiences, by which even more policy makers from the regions will be contributing. Project output will be five two day seminars in the different regions focused on sharing experiences by demonstrating the local/regional activities concerning clean tech incubation in the visited region and discussing bottlenecks and successful interventions. The programme of each seminar will contain two workshops: a returning workshop on best practices in the field of policy issues  versus setting up Cleantech incubators and a dedicated workshop with a specific theme, chosen by the project partners.
A best practices book 'Cleantech Incubation; Policy and Practices’ will be published, showing 15  established clean tech incubators. The project finalizes with a European conference 'Cleantech Incubation Policy and Practice'; where all results, experiences of the project will be showed and policymakers will be informed how to tackle clean tech incubation in their city or region. The project will be supported by a website 'Policy and Practice; Cleantech Incubation Europe', focused on all actors in the field of clean tech incubation (policymakers, incubators, knowledge institutes and industry). CIE will improve the knowledge of policymakers on how to tackle clean tech incubation and supporting SME’s in this field by their participation in the partner seminars.
The contribution of mycorrhizal fungi to multifunctionality in global drylands

Dryland ecosystems are a key terrestrial biome, covering 45% of the Earth´s surface and supporting over 38% of the total global population, but their functioning and the goods and services they provide are vulnerable to global environmental changes such as increasing land use intensity (e.g. grazing pressure) and climate aridification. Mycorrhizal fungi, i.e. obligate plant symbionts colonizing the roots of 90% of all land plants, contribute substantially to dryland biodiversity, to their functioning, and the provision of goods and services by dryland ecosystems. In exchange for plant assimilated carbon, mycorrhizal fungi increase plant nutrient supply, influence soil formation and aggregation, plant defence to herbivory and resistance to drought, among other important processes. Through these mechanisms, they influence plant diversity, multiple ecosystem functions, such as nutrient cycling or biomass production, and likely modulate ecosystem responses to aridity and grazing pressure, which are forecasted to increase in drylands under global environmental change. Mycorrhizal effects depend on environmental conditions and species traits determining the efficiency of the resource exchange between plants and fungi. However, to date little is known about the contribution of mycorrhizal fungi to the diversity and functioning of drylands or to the capacity of drylands to provide multiple functions simultaneously (i.e. multifunctionality). We also do not know how the contribution of mycorrhizal fungi to dryland multifunctionality might change under forecasted global environmental change or depending on the resource economy of the plant community. The MYFUN project aims to fill these gaps in knowledge by assessing the contribution of mycorrhizal fungi to dryland multifunctionality in response to environmental stress (increased aridity, grazing pressure) and plant resource economy.
Overview on Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Techniques for Photovoltaic Power Systems

Photovoltaic (PV) is one of the mature technologies as a clean energy source. PV power generation is greatly affected by varying weather conditions (irradiance, temperature, etc.), and Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT) has a decisive role to harvest the maximum possible energy from the PV system disregarding the fact of varying environmental conditions. Therefore, MPPT attains prior position considering the global efficiency of the PV system. This article provides an overview and potential applications of the MPPT technology in PV power systems. A comprehensive literature review is done on different MPPT structures, control strategies and operations, selection of components and other technical considerations. This work encompasses of 30 MPPT techniques which includes both conventional as well as recently published methods. It also discusses the MPPTs which are effective on partial shaded condition (PSC), low power applications and also for distributed PV system. An elaborate comparison among the MPPT techniques is made which is helpful for proper selection. The PV professionals and novice researchers will be benefitted in a great extent, since it is a source of valuable information on MPPT. At the end, a list of 185 research publications is appended for quick reference.
Fostering teacher community development: A review of design principles and a case study of an innovative interdisciplinary team

To deal with recent reforms and the accompanying complexity of work in secondary education, ongoing collaboration between teachers has become more important. A community is seen as a promising learning environment to support and embed collaboration into the culture of the school. However, community theory for the design of teacher communities seems underdeveloped. Therefore, this study aims to formulate a set of design principles to foster the development of teacher communities in secondary education. The set of design principles is based on a review of literature, as well as on a best-practice case. The case study was used to validate design principles from the literature in the target context. The resulting design principles were based on context-intervention-mechanism-outcome logic that takes into account the context-dependency of interventions as well as the mechanisms that help with understanding of how interventions produce certain outcomes. Implications for practice relate to ownership and co-design of the arrangement. The set of design principles provides a practical basis for teachers and administrators aiming to facilitate community building in their school. Future research is recommended on testing the effectiveness of the arrangement in the target context by means of a multiple case study.

Moduli spaces associated with singularities

The aim of this project is to investigate enumerative invariants of the Hilbert schemes parametrizing zero-dimensional subschemes of some basic classes of surface singularities as well as of its higher rank analogues, and find connections between these enumerative invariants and the Chern-Simons theories on the links of the singularities. This question will open brand new relations between algebraic and topological invariants of these singularities. 

The main tool to approach the problem will be to develop representations of vertex algebras on the cohomologies or derived categories of these moduli spaces conjecturally giving rise to analogues of the Nekrasov parition function on the singularities. Then we will use recent new developements about a specific motivic measure with values in the Grothendieck ring of geometric dg categories to prove some simplification of the aimed correspondence. In the end we will raise these simplified results to the general level.

This project will allow the researcher to broaden his area of expertise as well as to develop new directions in his research lines. He will complement his knowledge in low-dimensional topology at one of the most prestigious research institutes and under the guidance of one of the worldwide leaders in this field.

Inline real-time 4.0 quality monitoring in food production

The food industry is in need of solutions to enhance food safety and food security across the supply chain, so as to reduce the amount of food discarded as waste and prevent the creation of toxic substances during processing: today, about 1.3 billion tonnes of food get lost or wasted! At Insort GmbH we aim to address this need with the FoodMonitor: a monitoring system which combines the latest technologies in (I) hyperspectral imaging and sensing in food production and (II) machine learning algorithms and Internet of the Things. The FoodMonitor analyses the chemical composition of the material to be processed at all critical stages of the production line, providing the operator with a complete, real-time picture to adjust the different production steps according to the real characteristics and quality of the food products, i.e.  optimizing production at product-level according to efficiency, health and sustainability aspects. In this way, we contribute to reducing food loss and waste pre-consumption as well as health damages post-consumption of industrial processed food. At Insort GmbH we count with a highly ambitious and very experienced team in technical, commercial and financial tasks for the project execution. Our company has been very successful since its foundation in 2011: we are now 30 employees, generating an annual turnover of €5 million (with ascending trend), having won 7 national and international prices on best practices and disruptive technologies.  In addition to our social, economic and ecological aims in reducing food wastage and enhancing food safety, through this project we aim to boost the competitiveness of our company, reaching overall revenues of about €14 million in the third year of commercialization, and increasing our personnel in about 12 people. With a Phase 2 investment of €1.5 million, this would imply a Return of Investment of 3.3
Spatiotemporal expression of Rhomboid domain containing 2 (Rhbdd2) during rat development

Over the last few years rhomboid genes have gained interest because of its association with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In previous studies, we demonstrated that human RHBDD2 is over-expressed in the advanced stages of breast and colorectal cancers, suggesting a favorable role in cell proliferation. So far little is known about the expression of RHBDD2 in other tissues and other species, and because of similarities between cancer and embryonic cells, this study focused on the evaluation of Rhbdd2 expression in embryonic and adult rat tissues. By IHC and RT-PCR, Rhbdd2 was identified in early stages of most tissues analyzed, with high expression in brain, spinal cord, kidney and embryonic skin. In adult tissues, the expression remained elevated while salivary glands became positive. Furthermore, Rhbdd2 showed a high expression in the most proliferative stages of the rat mammary gland. Indeed, similar findings were observed in the mouse mammary epithelial cell line HC11, in which Rhbdd2 resides in the Golgi apparatus, and at different stages of mouse mammary gland development. Therefore, Rhbdd2 would be implicated in embryonic and adult tissue proliferation.
Prolonged carbon dioxide insufflation under general anesthesia for endoscopic submucosal dissection

Carbon dioxide (CO (2)) insufflation for endoscopy has been reported to provide superior recovery and is expected to reduce the risk of serious complications, including air embolism and tension pneumothorax, whereas general anesthesia offers some advantages not found under intravenous sedation. Little is known about the effect of prolonged CO (2) insufflation into gastrointestinal tracts on arterial CO (2) tension (PaCO (2)). Here we introduce the use of general anesthesia with CO (2) insufflation for esophagogastroduodenal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).A prospective observational study was conducted in a university-affiliated hospital. A total of 100 patients were scheduled for esophagogastroduodenal ESD under general anesthesia with CO (2) insufflation, using standardized anesthesia techniques and unchanged ventilatory settings. Arterial blood gas analyses were repeated at predetermined time intervals.Of the initial 100 participants, 94 patients undergoing ESD and four patients undergoing endoscopic mucosal resection completed the study. The median procedure time was 122 minutes (range 29 - 309 minutes). The median baseline PaCO (2) of 28 mmHg increased to a median peak PaCO (2) of 39 mmHg ( P < 0.001), with marked inter-individual variability in the time courses of changes in PaCO (2). The correlation coefficient of PaCO (2) with the procedure time was low (r = 0.194; n = 577, P < 0.0001). FEV (1.0) % (forced expiratory volume in 1 second/forced vital capacity) of < 70 % and esophagoscopy vs. gastroduodenoscopy were relative enhancement factors of PaCO (2).Increases of PaCO (2) during esophagogastroduodenal ESD under general anesthesia with CO (2) insufflation remained within acceptable or readily controllable ranges, and are little enhanced by prolongation of the procedure. Esophagogastroduodenal ESD can be performed safely and feasibly with this procedure.

Spatial Adaptive Speckle Filtering Driven by Temporal Polarimetric Statistics and Its Application to PSI

Persistent scatterer (PS) interferometry (PSI) techniques are designed to measure ground deformations using satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. They rely on the identification of pixels not severely affected by spatial or temporal decorrelation, which, in general, correspond to pointlike PSs commonly found in urban areas. However, in urban areas, we can find not only PSs but also distributed scatterers (DSs) whose phase information may be exploited for PSI applications. Estimation of DS parameters requires speckle filtering to be applied to the complex SAR data, but conventional speckle filtering approaches tend to mask PS information due to spatial averaging. In the context of single-polarization PSI, adaptive speckle filtering strategies based on the exploitation of amplitude temporal statistics have been proposed, which seek to avoid spatial filtering on nonhomogeneous areas. Given the growing interest on polarimetric PSI techniques, i.e., those using polarimetric diversity to increase performance over conventional single-polarization PSI, in this paper, we propose an adaptive spatial filter driven by polarimetric temporal statistics, rather than single-polarization amplitudes. The proposed approach is able to filter DS while preserving PS information. In addition, a new methodology for the joint processing of PS and DS in the context of PSI is introduced. The technique has been tested for two different urban data sets: 41 dual-polarization TerraSAR-X images of Murcia (Spain) and 31 full-polarization Radarsat-2 images of Barcelona (Spain). Results show an important improvement in terms of number of pixels with valid deformation information, hence denser area coverage.

ρ resonance from the I = 1 ππ potential in lattice QCD

We calculate the phase shift for the I = 1 ππ scattering in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD at m π = 410 MeV, using all-to-all propagators with the LapH smearing. We first investigate the sink operator independence of the I = 2 ππ scattering phase shift to estimate the systematics in the LapH smearing scheme in the HAL QCD method at m π = 870 MeV. The difference in the scattering phase shift in this channel between the conventional point sink scheme and the smeared sink scheme is reasonably small as long as the next-toleading analysis is employed in the smeared sink scheme with larger smearing levels. We then extract the I = 1 ππ potential with the smeared sink operator, whose scattering phase shift shows a resonant behavior (ρ resonance). We also examine the pole of the S-matrix corresponding to the ρ resonance in the complex energy plane.
