PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING REACTION TEMPERATURES

A reactor arrangement and process for indirectly contacting a reactant stream (A) with a heat exchange stream (B) uses an arrangement of corrugated heat exchange plates (10) to control temperature conditions by varying the number and/or the arrangement of the corrugations (13) along the plates (10). The reactor arrangement and process of this invention may be used to operate a reactor under isothermal or other controlled temperature conditions. The variation in corrugation arrangements within a single heat exchange section is highly useful in maintaining a desired temperature profile in an arrangement having a cross-flow of heat exchange medium relative to reactants. The corrugations arrangement eliminates or minimizes the typical step-wise approach to isothermal conditions.
Risk factors related to interfractional variation in whole pelvic irradiation for locally advanced pelvic malignancies

The goal of the present study was to demonstrate risk factors affecting the interfractional variation in whole pelvic irradiation.Daily image acquisitions of 101 patients with locally advanced pelvic malignancy were undertaken using a kilo-voltage orthogonal on-board imager. The baseline deviation (the shift between the initial treatment and each fraction; Value(Base)) and day-to-day variation (the shift between the previous treatment and each fraction; Value(DD)) were measured. The standard deviations (SD) along the x- (right-left), y- (cranial-caudal), and z- (anterior-posterior) axes (SD[x], SD[y], and SD[z], respectively), the 3D vector of the SD (SD[3D]), and the mean of 3D shift (mean[3D]) were calculated in each patient. Various clinical factors, lumbar pelvic balance and rotation, and the shift of 5 consecutive fractions from the initial treatment (Value(5Fx)) were investigated as risk factors.The prone set-up showed a larger mean(Base)[3D] than in the supine position (p =0 .063). A body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m(2) resulted in the largest mean(DD)[3D] (p = 0.078) and SD(DD)[3D] (p = 0.058). All the SD(5Fx) along the x-, y-, and z-axes had moderate linear relationships with SD(Base) and SD(DD) (p < 0.001). The SD(5Fx)[3D] also had a moderate linear relationship with the mean(Base)[3D], mean(DD)[3D], SD(Base)[3D], and SD(DD)[3D] (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, the SD(5Fx) had the same significant relationship with SD(Base) and SD(DD) (p < 0.001). A BMI ≥ 30 kg/m(2) was associated with the largest SD(DD)[x] (p = 0.003).Close surveillance through high-quality and frequent image guidance is recommended for patients with extensive variations of the initial five consecutive fractions or obesity.
SOLAR PLATFORM

The invention relates to a floating solar platform comprising a bridge (10, 5, 21) connected to buoyancy elements (11), means (14, 23) for collecting received solar energy, said means being associated with said bridge and placed thereon, means (16, 24) for converting this energy, means (19) for storing the product of this conversion, and first propulsion means (12) for moving said platform to sites where it can benefit from optimum sunshine. The platform further includes means for controlling its paths, which means act on said propulsion means and include a navigation system associated with an algorithm for predictively optimizing the position in terms of latitude and longitude, taking into account the local meteorological conditions or particular logistic data for the optimum choice of its location.
Innovative system for medium scale water desalination 100% powered by renewable energies

We are RAINMAKER, a Dutch SME specialized in providing sustainable and disruptive solutions to combat water scarcity. We have developed W2W –water to water- the first water desalination system fully off-grid and fully powered by renewable energies (wind & solar).
Within Europe, especially western and Southern regions suffer water shortages, which will become increasingly more frequent and severe due to water demands and climate change. 
Seawater represents an inexhaustible resource to produce drinking water. However, conventional desalination techniques are extremely energy-intensive that are designed for large-scale capacity plants. Its cost is prohibitive for zones than require a smaller production of water. W2W is an innovative option for obtaining safe drinking water from seawater, brackish water or even polluted groundwater.  
The system consists of a wind turbine connected to a heat pump that is powered by solar energy when wind flow decreases, thus 100% powered by renewable energies. The thermal energy created by the power unit is used in a state-of-the-art membrane distillation system to evaporate and then condense feedwater from a water source to create fresh, pure water. 
A single unit of W2W can desalinate more than 95,000 litres of water a day, which can provide drinking water for more than 800 people without any grid connection.  Water is produced locally directly where it is needed without the need for long distribution nets and associated energy costs.  
Our system is targeted to coastal municipalities in the Mediterranean that need to increase their water purification capacity. Disaster relieve and emergency response operations can also benefit from W2W: it provides drinking water without the need of any energy/fuel supply, exactly the things that are normally lacking in such areas. 
Thanks to the development of this innovation we expect to gain a strong position in a highly attractive market currently worth 8.8 billion € and growing at a CARG of 9%.

New speakers and use of russian in the northern norway

The NEW_WAY project will look at trajectories across the lifespan among Russian-speaking linguistic actors, and on the role of speaking/writing Russian in the political economy of Northern Norway around the Russian-Norwegian border. With the end of Cold War and implementation of more flexible border policies, Northern Norway, as other regions neighbouring with ex-USSR, got placed into the heart of geopolitics, global migration and sea trade, security and environmental crises. In the two decades after the Warsaw Pact dissolution, use and acquisition of Russian by different social actors, including speakers of other languages, has renewed its significance in the multilingual economy of the region. With this MSCA action, I would bring my competence on biographical research, knowledge of Russian and expertise on Russian-speaking migrant communities to complement the Norwegian research team. I wish to expand the biographical workshops methods with nexus
analysis supervised by the world-renowned expert in nexus analysis. I will gain understanding of Northern borderland multilingual policies and practices in order to reveal deep-running social processes present and past (e.g. legal recognition, language investment and commodification, identity and community building etc.) with implications for social cohesion and peaceful neighbouring policy across other borderlands in Europe, as well as with potential for theory building and terminology creation. The project is expected to open ways to understanding the dynamics of decision-making that multilingual speakers undertake in investing into and building their individual language repertoires. Building from multi-sited ethnographic and biographical accounts, the project has a potential to construct a holistic perspective on multilingual practices and decision-making. The resulting picture goes beyond the sum of its elements and will inform critical rethinking of the concepts of community, diaspora, minority,majority and language.
Viscous potential flow of electrohydrodynamic Kelvin–Helmholtz instability through two porous layers with suction/injection effect

Abstract The linear electrohydrodynamic Kelvin–Helmholtz instability of an interface between two dielectric fluids fully saturated porous media with heat and mass transfer in the presence of a horizontal electric field is investigated. The lighter fluid is above the heavier one, so that in the absence of both motion and electric fields, the arrangement is stable where the interface is flat. It also taken into account the existence of a constant suction/injection velocities at porous boundaries. The effects of the various parameters on the stability of the interface are presented and illustrated through some sets of figures. These parameters such as the Darcy’s coefficients, suction/injection velocities at the boundaries, dielectric constants, heat and mass transfer coefficient, the relative streaming velocity and the thickness of the fluid layers. It was found that the Darcy’s coefficient for the porous layers plays a stabilizing role in the stability picture. Also, It was found that the thickness of the lighter fluid has stabilizing effect, and vise versa occurs for the heavier fluid. The injection of the fluids at both boundaries have stabilizing effect, in contrast with the suction at both boundaries.

Stable halide perovskite nanocrystals for efficient optoelectronic devices

Perovskites have shown impressively outstanding performance in solar cells and light emitting diodes (LEDs) but are still limited by the non-negligible stability issues. With high efficiency achieved, now it is time to fill the research gap for pursuing stable perovskites. 
My priority goal for the StabPerov project is to obtain highly stable perovskite nanocrystals by using amphiphilic molecules such as liposomes. Upon successful realized, more stable optoelectrical devices can be explored targeting one of the most serious concern for commercialization of perovskite based applications. At the beginning of my project, I will optimize the synthesis of perovskites nanocrystals. For coating perovskites, amphiphilic molecules are used as coating materials. The amphiphilic molecules may also function as ligands. Different types of amphiphilic molecules will be introduced. Detailed and comprehensive characterizations of (HR)TEM, XRD and optical spectroscopy of materials will be carried out before and after degradation. The stability improvement of perovskite nanocrystals is now urgent, whilst getting the insight of how perovskites are decomposed is also necessary with regard to optimize synthesis and to evaluate protected nanocrystals. At the next stage, the as-prepared high quality stable perovskite nanocrystals will serve as emitters and catalysts for the demonstration of applications. My results are of great feasibility and practical significance, which pave the way towards the applications of stable high performance perovskite based devices. 
Combining my background with the training of optical spectroscopy offered by the host as well as being an independent investigator of this project, the Marie Curie fellowship will not only provide an excellent chance for me to become a research group leader in my future career, but also offer a markedly benefit to the development of sustainable energy for society by more efficient and more stable solar cells and LEDs.
Thermal vision augmented awareness

The new ways of driving and use a vehicle as expected in the scope of Smart Mobility asks for reliable and affordable versatile perception systems. Perception systems need to be accurate and reliable both for what happen in the cabin and out of the cabin. The driver and passenger monitoring needs to be improved as well as the environment surrounding monitoring, in all light and weather conditions. For both of these topics, the extension of current perception systems (mainly based on visible imaging, LIDAR and RADAR detection) to the thermal sensing is a must.  Thermal sensing, especially in the LWIR (= 6 to 14 µm) bandwidth, provides valuable additional information and has to be considered as a must for the next generation of L4 (‘’Eyes off’’) and L5 (‘’Mind off’’) autonomous driving.
In this context, the HELIAUS project aims to deliver breakthrough perception systems for in-cabin passengers monitoring, as well as for the car surrounding by developing smart thermal perception systems that extend the current systems to the LWIR bandwidth.
From general point of view, the main objectives of the HELIAUS project and work to be carried out are as follows:
1/ to develop cutting-edge and cost effective technologies leading to low cost, high performance LWIR module,
2/ to specify, develop, test and validate the thermal perception systems first prototypes for in-cabin and out-of cabin application,
3/ to quantify the valuable addition of the thermal sensing into the current systems and future systems,
4/ to promote the benefit of such systems in the future autonomous vehicles, in particular, and for smart mobility in general.
The HELIAUS project is a first and essential step to the creation of a future industrialized affordable thermal perception systems offer. Being a part of the IPCEI Microelectronics, in which ULIS leads a project in the framework of the ‘’Smart Sensors’’, the HELIAUS project will positively contribute to the global competitiveness of the European industry.

La population française devrait continuer de vieillir d’ici un demi-siècle

Selon les projections de l’Insee publiées en 2021, la France comptera entre 58 et 79 millions d’habitants en 2070. Le scénario central conduit à une population de 68 millions d’habitants. Il annonce une population plus vieille qu’aujourd’hui, et en légère diminution à partir de 2044 alors que les projections précédentes tablaient sur un maintien de la croissance. L’excédent des décès sur les naissances ne serait en effet plus compensé par un solde migratoire positif. L’écart avec le chiffre annoncé pour 2070 par les projections précédentes (publiées en 2016), 76 millions, est important. Il vient de la révision à la baisse à la fois de l’effectif de la population de 2021 et des hypothèses de fécondité, d’espérance de vie et de migrations.

Imaging spectral deconvolution specialist

Stand-off trace detection of chemicals in vapour, liquid and condensed phases in real world cluttered and environmentally varied conditions has a range of applications, e.g. oil & gas security & defence and environmental services. Optical detection methods are the most promising solution as they can offer highly sensitive, non-destructive and remote sensing capabilities. Practical systems must be eye safe, compact format, highly sensitive and have an imaging capability. Laser-based, hyperspectral sensing and imaging in the infrared (3-12 µm) offers these benefits but with current technology, the detection limits are too low to address all market requirements. Recently, an active, coherent laser spectrometer that meets these needs was developed by the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) and has been developed into a prototype at M Squared Lasers Ltd (MSL). Although the practical elements have been demonstrated there are significant improvements possible in the detection algorithms. Heterodyne IR imaging produces significant volumes of data at high repetition rates that must be interpreted in real-time. Coupling this with inherent changes in intensity and alteration of spectra from heat, moisture and background interferents make this a challenging task. Spectral deconvolution is a niche field in which a unique skill set spanning spectroscopy, programming and photonics is required to tackle the task effectively. MSL have found it hard to source a candidate with the computer programming expertise in search and fitting algorithms and with the practical background in experimental spectroscopy to effectively design and implement a real-time spectroscopic deconvolution method. To meet this innovation opportunity MSL needs to overcome barriers to recruitment by widening its recruitment pool from UK to EU and increasing visibility. This project provides the framework to overcome these barriers and deliver the envisaged project results and impacts.

Olfactory loss after head and neck cancer radiation therapy

Background: A reduced sense of smell may be one explanation for why patients with cancer in the ear, nose and throat (ENT) region who are treated with radiation therapy lose weight. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether radiation therapy has a negative effect on olfactory function and, if so, whether this effect is dose-related. Methodology: Seventy-one patients were tested using odour-detection sensitivity and olfactory identification tests before radiation therapy and 20 months after it. Results: Patients who received radiation close to the olfactory organ showed a reduced sense of smell, in both tests. A multiple regression analysis showed that the radiation dose was related to decline in the olfactory function, while age, sex, chemotherapy and interactions between these variables were not. Conclusion: Radiation therapy can damage olfactory cells.
