ROMIL:Risk prioitization and development of multi methods for the analyse of migrating ink- and adhezive components through food contact materials in food Ghent University
An Archaeology of Comparative Colonialism: material culture, institutions, and cultural change in Malta, c. AD 1530–1910 Ghent University
The project aims to produce a novel, material culture-led narrative of daily life in Malta, AD 1530-1910. Archaeological analyses of artefacts and space shall be integrated with archival evidence to produce a social interpretation, which shall be viewed through the prisms of colonial institutions and identity formation. The project culminates in a diachronic comparison of colonialism under three ruling groups.
Electrodeposition of metals, alloys and composite materials from acetamide-dimethyl sulfone eutectic melts KU Leuven
Mixtures of acetamide and dimethylsulfone (DMSO2) with dissolved anhydrous transition metal chlorides are introduced as new non-aqueous electrolytes for the preparation of luminescent composite metal coatings. Red-emitting (Eu2O3 and Y2O3:Eu3+), yellow-emitting (Y3Al5O12:Ce3+), ...
Multi Scale Simulation Techniques for Metal Forming KU Leuven
This project aims at a breaktrough in modeling of AHSS. These steels are increasingly being used within the automotive industry but have a challenging forming behavior. An extremely fast crystal plasticity code will be used to derive macroscopically observable anisotropic plastic properties from complex 3D artificial multi-phase microstructures. this will be directly coupled to efficient Multi-Scale code, leading to numerically very efficient ...
Development of sample introduction methods and analytical protocols for high-precision and accurate isotopic analyses via multi collector ICP Mass Spectrometry for innovative and interdisciplinary applications Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Flexible Multi Electrode Array for electrical cellular interfacing KU Leuven
Silicon is a suitable material for electrically interfacing with biological cells and tissues. However due to silicon’s high modulus and hardness relative to biological tissues, limits appear in an ability to recapitulate cellular systems in vitro. The focus here is the physical design and development of a multi electrode array that features global mechanical properties similar to in vivo tissue. Additional features may be explored such as ...
A multi "-omics" approach to study the effect of cadmiuminduced oxidative stress on proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana. Hasselt University
Precision feeding of growing-finishing pigs: multi phase feeding based on European protein sources Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
The protein supplied by the pig feed is mainly intended for meat formation. The part that is present in excess or in an inappropriate composition is used as an energy source. Excess nitrogen is excreted in the urine and ends up in the environment. It thus is essential to adapt the supply to the pigs’ requirement. In this way, one can reduce both the environmental load and (soy-based) protein ...
Unraveling Interdiffusion Effects at Material Interfaces -- Learning from Tensors of Microstructure Evolution Simulations KU Leuven
Multi-materials, combining various materials with different functionalities, are increasingly desired in engineering applications. Reliable material assembly is a great challenge in the development of innovative technologies. The interdiffusion microstructures formed at material interfaces are critical for the performance of the product. However, as more and more elements are involved, their complexity increases and their variety becomes ...
