Sonication and Microwave Processing of Material Feedstock (SIMPLIFY) responds to the EU Horizon 2020 call SPIRE-02-2018 and is an innovation action in which leading European industries and university groups in process intensification, ultrasound, microwave, multiphase processes, polymerization and crystallization team up to address the domain of electrification of chemical industry. In four years, a consortium of 11 European organizations, led by KU Leuven, will focus on intensified processes, where alternative energy sources enable flexible continuous technologies to achieve localized ultrasound and microwave actuation of multiphase, flow reactors powered by electricity from renewable sources for the purpose of high-value product synthesis.
The “NDTonAIR” project (Training Network in Non-Destructive Testing and Structural Health Monitoring of Aircraft structures) is funded under the action: H2020-MSCA-ITN-2016- GRANT 722134. The “NDTonAIR” consortium involves Universities, Research Organisations and major European companies working on new Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques for aerospace, of which both are key technologies. The goal is to train a new generation of scientists and engineers with a wide background of theoretical and experimental skills, capable of developing their research and entrepreneurial activities both in the academy and industry and playing an active role in promoting the importance of quality inspection and structural monitoring in aerospace components.
ADVISE – Advanced Inspection of Complex Structures is a collaborative research project awarded 4.17 million Euro funding from the European Commission’s EURATOM programme under the Horizon 2020 framework programme for Research and Innovation. The overall objective of the ADVISE project is to enhance – and in some cases to enable for the first time – the ultrasonic inspection of complex structures materials in order to improve confidence in and reliability of the inspection of Generation II and III reactors.
