Multi-configuration density-functional theories for excited states – MCFUNEX
Time-dependent density-functional theory (TD-DFT) is the standard approach for computing electronic excitation energies. Despite its success, TD-DFT, in its usual approximate formulation, cannot treat multiconfigurational electron correlation effects adequately and it completely misses multiple elec
Multi-functional memory elements using supramolecular self constructing interconnects – MultiSelf
The field of organic electronics is of growing importance, in particular for portable electronics, as well as low power and cheap electronics applications. Improving the conductivity of materials, as well as the interface between organic components and metallic interconnects are major problems, key
Multi-omic and multi-modal MRI signatures to unravel the role of glymphatic pathways in cerebral small vessel disease – Multi-SVD-glyph
Cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) is a heterogeneous group of pathologies affecting small blood vessels of the brain, and a leading cause of stroke and dementia. Numerous genetic risk loci have been identified for several magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) markers of cSVD, especially white matter h
Multi-scale modeling of ion transport in nanofiltration – MUTINA
Although nanofiltration (NF) has attracted increasing attention over the recent years, its current industrial applications are still limited compared to the great potentialities of this separation process. The major reason is that the physical phenomena involved in the separation process by nanoporo
Multifrequency low temeprature plasma at atmospheric pressure and metallic salt for a onde step nanocomposite thin film process, safe by design: application to plasmonic and magnetic nanocomposite – PLASSEL
PLASSEL aims to develop a low cost, one step, process able to prepare polymer/metal nanocomposite (NCs) thin films, with well-controlled properties on large surface substrates. This safe by design process at low environmental impact will be developed for gold plasmonic and nickel magnetic NCs. Its o
Multimodal Transit for Accessibility and Sustainability – MuTAS
Transit has a crucial role in the economics and the society of urban conurbations. To drive its evolution toward environmental sustainability and better user-centric performance, we envision optimally integrating new (Auto- mated) Mobility on Demand and classic Fixed Route Transit. This calls for a
Multimodal quantification and validation of 3D regional myocardial function – 3DSTRAIN
The 3DSTRAIN project was submitted last year under the acronym VSTRAIN3D. The main issues reported by the reviewers and the evaluation committee, have been addressed: need for the adaptation of the proposed algorithm to each modality, poor involvement of the industrial partner, evaluation process to
Multiphysics Imager for Microfluidic Fuel Cells – I2MPAC
In the current objective of massive deployment of renewable energies from wind turbines and solar panels, energy storage is the most critical issue to synchronize the electrical production to the consumption. Several studies in the literature have shown how energy storage can transform intermittent
Multiscale ab initio skyrmionics in 2D magnets – MATRICES
Magnetic skyrmions, topologically protected chiral spin structures with particle-like properties, have attracted tremendous attention due to their potential information storage and processing applications. The main focus of the community so far has been on skyrmions in bulk, ultrathin films, and mul
Multiscale characterization and modeling of charge transport properties and their influence on rate performance of high energy density composites electrodes for lithium batteries – PEPITE
In opposition to most of academic research on material development, this proposal addresses the issue of electrode technology, and its relation to limitation of power and energy of Li-ion batteries, reaching only 50 % of theoretical capacity. Indeed, in commercial batteries, practical electrodes mus
