Constructed life. Biography in the New Music Theater in the context of creation, innovation and communication KU Leuven
New Music Theater is often faced with the accusation of being stuck in traditional narrative structures. Still, in many new compositions non-linear narrative techniques of the music, libretto and staging forms appear that go hand in hand with a new attention to and forms of the narration. This phenomenon is to be investigated with regard to biographical narratives using the examples of Manos Tsangaris' 'Karl May' (2014), Mark-Anthony ...
Plasticised: Innovation inbiopolymerapplication by using optimized plasticisers and new processingtechniques Centexbel - Scientific and Technical Centre of the Belgian Textile industry
Goals
Both textile extrusion (fiber, monofilaments, multi-filaments, tapes) and plastics companies (foil, profile, injection molding) can implement the extrusion formulations in their productions. The newly to be developed coating formulations will become available for companies active in coating, finishing, impregnating and printing on various raw materials. Not only textiles but also applications on metal, plastic, ...

Innovative disease and pest control in outdoor ornamentals Ornamental plant research
This project was initiated in response to a request of several growers of outdoor ornamental plants, to grow high quality plants in an alternative way, with a reduced amount of chemical plant protection products. Because most growers of outdoor ornamentals still rely on preventative fungicide applications for disease control and chemical pest treatments based on damage symptoms, alternatives are needed. This project will focus on developing ...

Annotation Inference for Modular Formal Software Verification KU Leuven
Modular formal verification promises to enable software development teams to deliver software with
higher assurance of security, safety, and correctness at lower cost. However, in the current state of the art this is
hampered by the high effort required to author formal specifications and proof hints. I will perform
research into algorithms and techniques for reducing the user effort required to apply formal modular ...
TransBio:Biogas Versie 2.0:Â Technological transition of the Flemish biogas sector towards innovative business models with increased profitability and reduced support dependence Biogas-E - Anaerobic digestion platform for Flanders npo
The biogas sector in Flanders counts approx. 40 large scale installations, and 50 to 75 small scale (farm sized) installations. Biogas, as a renewable energy technology, produced 602 GWh of renewable electricity and 850 GWh of renewable heat in 2013. Yearly, 1.3 million tons of organic waste is converted to biogas, alongside hundreds of thousands of tons of manure. The biogas technology is therefore responsible for the valorisation of a large ...

Sense-IT: Evaluating new sensor technology for energy and growth optimization inornamental crops Ornamental plant research
De doelstelling van het Sense-IT project was via toepassing van sensortechnologie een antwoord bieden op twee vragen die de laatste jaren met regelmaat gesteld worden binnen de sierteeltsector: (1) 'Wat is het effect van mijn teeltmaatregelen en hoe kan ik de groei, ontwikkeling en kwaliteit van mijn gewas nauwlettend opvolgen?' en (2) 'Hoe kan ik het energieverbruik van mijn teeltsturing inschatten en waar mogelijk reduceren?'. Deze vragen ...
