Invloed van structuur, morfologie en procesparameters op de eigenschappen en potentiële migratie van polyhydroxyalkanoaat nanocomposieten voor packaging applicaties Universiteit Hasselt
MicroWave Photonic Technologies for Communications and Sensing Applications in Space Universiteit Gent
The MWP4SPACE Doctoral Network will train the next generation of specialists in Integrated Microwave Photonic (IMWP) devices and systems in the framework of satellite and space applications. They will gain skills to integrate compact photonic and radio frequency (RF) circuits, and cutting-edge knowledge of photonic integrated circuit (PIC) design, fabrication, packaging, validation, and qualification, both at the device and system level – ...
CORNET project: PAPERONICS Universiteit Hasselt
Een trainingsnetwerk over het ontwerpen van nieuwe bio-gebaseerde vezelproducten voor gerichte geavanceerde eigenschappen en nieuwe toepassingen KU Leuven
FibreNet will train young fibre-professionals having multidisciplinary view to develop sustainable bio-based fibre products with tailored properties for different application fields in both academic and non-academic sectors. Bio-based fibre products are one of the corner-stones in the European bio-based industry corresponding to 12% of the employment in manufacturing. The industry, including such sectors as packaging, paper, biocomposites and ...
FROGS - Flexibel robotgrijpen en -picken Universiteit Gent
Flexible gripping and picking are currently still critical grand challenges for robots. Classical robot applications have a dedicated gripper engineered which is typically optimized for gripping and picking one particular object. For flexible assembly and packaging applications where the properties of objects to grip change frequently or for applications with inherent object variation (e.g., organic products) a different solution is ...
Een Europees trainingsnetwerk voor functionele hybride coatings door moleculaire laagdepositie KU Leuven
HYCOAT is the first ETN at the intersection of chemistry, physics, materials science and engineering dealing with the synthesis and applications of hybrid coatings grown by molecular layer deposition (MLD). With self-limiting binary reactions, MLD is the ideal ultra-thin film deposition technique, offering unique advantages for growing uniform, conformal hybrid films providing precise and flexible control over the film thickness and chemical ...
Innovatieve, kleinschaliger voedselverwerking in een doos KU Leuven
The unique FOX approach will research and develop innovative, small scale technologies in mobile or flexible processing units for different applications for small and medium enterprises and farmers in the fruit and vegetable sector in Europe. This will stimulate the transition from a centralised industry to regional hubs that employ innovative, flexible and sustainable technologies based on seasonality and demand. By this, FOX meets ...
Miniatuurimplanteerbare zenuwstimulator met hoge resolutie voor elektrotechnisch onderzoek (HiMISER) KU Leuven
In my ERC project ‘µThalys’, we are researching future concepts for electronic medical implants. The main idea is to replace current medical implants that typically consist of a titanium casing with electronics and a few lead wires with less intrusive, softer, tissue-like implants. These future generation implants consist of soft, modular, miniature transducer nodes that can act stand-alone, or be connected in a network, thus forming e.g. an ...
4D-biofotonica voor duurzame voedselproductie. KU Leuven
Om te slagen in de grote uitdaging om 10 miljard mensen te voeden en tegelijkertijd de ecologische impact van onze voedselproductie te verlagen, moeten we de dynamische processen in planten, dieren en voedingsproducten in detail kunnen opvolgen en sturen. Fotonische technologieën hebben groot potentieel in deze context, maar ondanks de grote vooruitgang op gebied van hardware, blijft hun impact op de agrovoedingssector eerder beperkt. Daarom ...
