ISy WiRe U: Internal Synergies for Wiser Resources Use in University Campuses

11th Cycle, 2015, ASP Cycle, ASP projects, Year

Sustainability has become an international agenda; and due to its size, complexity, and influence in society, it is important to enhance sustainability in Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs). Our team divide the big and wide terms of sustainable university into six clusters: Protocols, Economic and Feasible studies, Building Efficiency, Energy Efficiency, Food and Waste, and User […]

IntegraGreen: Integration of additive manufacturing and machining processes in view of green and sustainable development

11th Cycle, 2015, ASP Cycle, ASP projects, Year

The Additive Manufacturing technology is one of the agents responsible for the 4th industrial revolution for at least three reasons. First, it offers the possibility to produce complex parts without the design constraints of traditional manufacturing routes. Second, scrap rates for AM parts are usually below 5%, compared to scrap rates of more than 90%

Smart Light: Development of a smart automotive taillight system

11th Cycle, 2015, ASP Cycle, ASP projects, Year

The Smart Light project consists in the development of a car taillight that is smarter than what is currently available on the market. The objective is to overcome the mere signaling function of ordinary rear lights by producing a device that is able to effectively deal with variable weather conditions, so as to always guarantee

G-Neo Colloids: Development of novel guanidinoglycoside based nanoparticles and nanogels for an efficient delivery of unmodified therapeutics

11th Cycle, 2015, ASP Cycle, ASP projects, Year

Main purpose of the project has been the synthesis of a new nanogel based on a PEG-PEI copolymer decorated with a modified guanidino-glycoside compound. This nanogel should then offer the possibility to embody an antitumoral drug which did not need to undergo any previous chemical modification. The great strength of this nanogel is its ability

DREAM: Drone tEchnology for wAter resources and hydrologic hazards Monitoring

11th Cycle, 2015, ASP Cycle, ASP projects, Year

Climate change is happening now: temperatures are rising, rainfall patterns are shifting, glaciers are melting and the global average sea level is rising. Everyone seems to know about it, but unfortunately most of this common knowledge is based on misinformation rather than on scientific facts. The truth is that it is actually very difficult to
