Nanoscale Enhanced Characterisation of SOlar selective coatings (NECSO)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

Optical coatings are commonly deposited over large areas on different substrates: glass, metals (steel, aluminium...) or polymeric foils (PET...). Production processes involve normally large machinery including many times roll-to-roll processes to deposit multilayers over several square meters of substrates. However, properties of these coatings depend strongly on nanometric properties: compositio ...

Preloading to mitigate seismic liquefaction risk (PREMISERI)

Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

"Excessive deformations of level ground caused by earthquakes are of great concern for civil engineering works, human lives and the environment. Such ground deformations are usually associated with liquefaction, i.e., a decrease in strength caused by the increase in pore water pressures in saturated cohesionless materials during earthquake ground motion. Much earthquake damage caused by liquefacti ...
