StrUctured Graphene frameworks designed for Electrochemical Storage – SUGGEST
The aim of this project is to develop chemically designed 3D graphene architectures with the objectives to favor the intercalation of both cations such as Li+, Na+, but also Ca2+, Mg2+ and Al3+, and/or anions (PF6-, BF4-, TFSI) in batteries or dual cells by controlling the interlayer distance betwe
Development of nanobody-based vectors that cross the blood brain barrier via receptor-mediated transcytosis for brain delivery of imaging or therapeutic agents – NANOVECTOR
Central Nervous System (CNS) diseases are the world’s leading cause of disability and affect over 450 million people, causing disability and suffering. The total annual cost of brain disorders in Europe is in the range of €500-700 billion/year. CNS disease treatments, though essentially palliative,
Electric Vehicle Routing Optimization – e-VRO
Electric vehicles (EVs) are one of the most promising technologies to reduce petroleum dependency and greenhouse gas emissions. The latter, is especially true when we consider the potential benefits of using EVs for freight transportation, which is believed to be responsible for as much as 30% of em
ACTIVe Reduction Of Aerodynamic Drag. Wake control : from passenger car to long haul vehicle – ACTIV_ROAD
The objectives are the following : - Carry out a physical study on aerodynamic properties of the wake for square back bluff-bodies under the influence of high-frequency perturbations due to pulsed jets in the vicinity of solid surfaces. - Take advantage of advanced control strategies used in the p
Fast Univeral Tunable Optical Filter – FASTUNE
Design and realization of the tunable filter: - Choice of materials (glass, mirrors, glues, connectors) - Definition of the reflection rate of the mirrors, realization of a set of substrates covered with the 99% dielectric mirrors - Study and optimization of the shape of adhesive joints - Realiz
Automatic redistribution of a fleet of car-sharing vehicles and parking valet – VALET
The announced objective of the project is the development of an automatic redistribution system for sharing vehicles in an urban environment. The principle is based on the construction of automated vehicle platoons guided by manually driven vehicles. The collected vehicles are transported to a charg
Comodal freight transportation chains: a physical internet approach – pi-comodalité
The PI-co-modality project is devoted to the design of co-modal chains between preset origins and destinations according to environmental and economic objectives. The project is based on the concept of the physical internet (shortened by PI) that breaks with previous established approaches. The meta
Surface acoustic wave micro-sensors based on ALuminium nitride/Sapphire Structures for high-temperature Applications – SALSA
The SALSA project aims at developing a micro-sensor enabling wireless process control in industrial applications operating at elevated temperatures (up to 1000°C) where no conventional wireless sensor can survive. The sensor consists of a surface acoustic wave (SAW) device based on AlN/Sapphire laye
Encapsulation Process by Droplet Interface Crossing – EPIC
EPIC addresses the industrial scale development of an encapsulation process based on the generation of calibrated droplets of aqueous phase and their coating by crossing a liquid-liquid interface. The objective is to produce monodisperse capsules with controlled shell size, thickness and content. Th
Combination of Precipitation and grain Refinement for the Achievement of high Strength Aluminium alloys – PRASA
Aluminium alloys play an important role in the transportation industry. In the aircraft or the car industry, the demand for high strength alloy to design low weight structures is nowadays strongly driven by energy savings and low CO2 emissions. Thus developing, optimizing and producing new alloys wi
