Participation (Post Doctoral Fellow – Constantine Michailides) in the European Union funded project (FP-7 Energy) MARINA Platform. MARINA is a European project dedicated to bringing offshore renewable energy applications closer to the market by creating new infrastructures for both offshore wind and ocean energy converters. It addresses the need for creating a cost-efficient technology development basis to…
The STEAM Project (Coordinator – Michalis Michaelides, Scientific Coordinator – Herodotos Herodotou) is a three-year project expected to start on January 2019 with a budget of approximately 1 million EUR financed by the Cyprus Research Promotion Foundation. The general objective of the STEAM project is to develop Port of Limassol to become a world-class transshipment…
PREM_ISES (Coordinator – Elia Tantele) is a Research Promotion Foundation funded research programme aiming to create a unified performance prediction model for structures and infrastructures incorporating diverse monitoring data. A performance prediction model that incorporated and combined in a novel way corrosion and strain data from remote periodic monitoring was developed.
An EC funded Marie Curie IEF programme INSIST (Marie Curie Intra Fellow – Stelios Yiatros from CUT with Cranfield University) is an experimental investigation on the structural stability and integrity of novel steel foam sandwich panels (SFSPs) under monotonic and cyclic loading. Metal (including steel) foams is a special type of porous metal that can…
This was the first in-depth study (Principal Investigator – Theodoros Zachariades) of the energy efficiency potential in Cyprus funded by the European Commission (Structural Reform Support Service) and the German Federal Ministry of Economy and Energy through the German Organisation for International Cooperation. Different energy models were combined in order to conduct simulations and provide…
