JEt noise of high bypass RatiO eNgine: Installation, advanced Modelling and mitigatiOn (JERONIMO)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
The central goal of JERONIMO is the understanding of the physical mechanisms of ultrahigh bypass ratio (UHBR) engines with a bypass ratio (BPR) larger than 12 and the related installed jet noise with potential jet-wing interaction. The aim is to reduce uncertainties in jet noise characterisation of this novel installation configuration by wind tunnel tests and predictions and being able to derive ...

OPtimisation for low Environmental Noise impact AIRcraft (OPENAIR)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
Reducing noise from aircraft operations perceived by airport neighbouring communities is a major challenge facing the aircraft manufacturing industry, social society and the air transport business. By adopting a whole aircraft approach based on the latest developments in active / adaptive technologies, flow control techniques and advances in computational aero-acoustics applied to the major causes ...

Useful PLASMa for AEROdynamic control (PLASMAERO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"PLASMAERO seeks to demonstrate how surface & spark discharge plasma actuators could be used to control aircraft aerodynamic flow. This will be achieved through an enhanced understanding of their physical characteristics and an in-depth study of how they may be optimised to influence the air flow properties. The project will run for 36 months and will show the advantages and notably the ease of im ...

"Molecular Mechanisms underlying the link between the vitamin K-dependent proteins, Gas6 and protein-S, and phagocytosis of apoptotic cells during cell differentiation processes" (PHAGOCYTOSIS)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2010,
"The anti-coagulant factor protein-S and its structural homologue Gas6, two vitamin K-dependent proteins, are ligands for the Tyro3/Axl/Mer family of related tyrosine kinase receptors. Protein-S is the major factor responsible for serum-stimulated phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. The phenotypes associated with the invalidation of genes encoding Tyro3/Axl/Mer, further revealed the implication of pr ...
