Additive-manufactured MIEC ceramic membranes for solar-driven green fuels generation – MEMBRASOL
The production of renewable and dispatchable synthetic fuels using green processes constitutes a major challenge of the next decade for the decarbonation of the transport and energy sectors. This project aims to develop a novel groundbreaking approach that bypasses the use of electricity while being
Adjusting nitrate fluxes in plant growth responses to shade or temperature – NitReST
Plants constantly adjust their development in response to variations of environmental parameters, both above and below ground. How do plants sense and integrate various concomitant external signals? How does each signal influence the response to another? These questions are at the heart of the NitRe
Advanced 2D and 3D material design for operando techniques of bioelectrocatalysis – MatOpeBioCat
Enzymatic electrocatalysis is regarded as an eco-friendly process for various applications in the field of electrochemical energy conversion as well as environmental and medical sensing. Thanks to advanced 2D and 3D electrode design, ranging from planar, over array to 3D porous transparent conductin
Advanced Bipolar Membranes for Energy and Electrodialysis Technology – APRiCOT
Bipolar membranes dissociate water (H2O à H++OH-) at the interface between a proton and a hydroxide conductor under applied bias. This is being exploited industrially in electrodialysis to produce acid and base, and could be of great value for water and CO2 electrolyzers. Recently, some of us introd
Advanced Monte Carlo Methods for Medical Physics – MoCaMed
The numerical simulation of particle transport in medical physics, known as Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS), is widely used in the research and development of medical imaging systems and radiotherapy treatment systems. However, the growing need for detailed and accurate simulations results in extremely
Advanced Monte Carlo and Quasi-Monte Carlo Sampling for Computer Graphics Applications – AMCQMCSCGA
Stochastic and quasi-stochastic sampling is a key component of Monte Carlo and Quasi-Monte Carlo (MCQMC) integration, a technique widely used in applications that require the evaluation of complex integrands, which cannot be calculated analytically, such as the light-transport calculations commonly
Advanced Nanoscale Thermal Imaging and CHaracterization Instruments – ANTICHI
For fundamental thermal science and numerous nanomaterials no mature solution to the issue of thermal measurement at the nanoscale currently exists. In ANTICHI our goal is to provide a versatile instrument that allows analysing in highly controlled experimental conditions thermal mesoscale processes
Advanced design PrActice for New aero engine Developments and bearing Optimization undeR Extreme conditions – PANDORE
To achieve the objectives set by Europe regarding carbon neutrality, all aircraft engine manufacturers have started seeking original engine architectures that allow them to reach these goals. Several directions for development have been considered which all aim at improving performances in terms of
Advanced eco-compatible mRNA vaccines for induction of protective immune responses in farmed fish – Fish-RNAvax
Infectious diseases in fish farming cost about 20% of the production value. In the context of ever expanding aquaculture industry, which already outgrows wild fish capture and is forecasted to double by 2050, disease prevention by vaccination has become crucial to reduce the aquaculture burden on t
Aeronautic and Automotive Gathering for Pulsating Heat Pipe Development – AARDECO
Facing primary societal challenges (greenhouse effect reduction, fossil energy rarefaction), the industry of transportation vehicles has to change profoundly to provide the economic use of resources for the sake of future generations. This important transformation passes through the minimization of
