Managed Aquifer Recharge SOLutions Storing water in aquifers during times of excess can help address water scarcity challenges experienced in many parts of the Mediterranean Basin. In principal, large storage capacity is available in shallow aquifers, either due to thick unsaturated zones or due to already depleted water resources in overexploited aquifers. In addition, water…
The main project objective is to establish a virtual internet-based engineering campus for laboratory exercises. These exercises will target students in mechanical, electrical and civil departments, as well as Physics education in high schools and preparatory engineering. This will be achieved through the following main tasks: 1. Develop several electronic laboratory exercises for engineering education….
Automated Driving Applications and Technologies for Intelligent VehiclesAdaptIVe enhanced the performance and improved the acceptance of automated driving of cars and trucks. The project developed new and integrated automated functions to improve traffic safety by minimizing the effects of human errors and to enhance traffic efficiency by smoother flows and reduced congestion. The approach was based…
Demonstrate Ecosystem Services Enabling Innovation in the Water Sector Water scarcity and water quality are important issues in urban areas across Europe and beyond. New technology or management approaches to tackle these issues are needed. Those approaches are more likely to turn into real innovations that are actually implemented and taken up by the market…
