Reality-Connected Machine Simulation of Heavy Machinery

The RealSim project proposal aims to connect machine simulation to reality in the framework of heavy machinery, which is an interdisciplinary application. The results of this project are expected to optimize machine performance, accurately and reliably predict machine failure, and reduce overall development and operation costs, thus, serving the Europe’s priority of green transformation and the United Nation’s sustainable development goal 9. The RealSim project will close the gaps of: (1) Onboard estimations of force and pressure components of heavy machinery; (2) Estimating deformability, cylinder friction, leakage, and valve dynamics of heavy machinery using independent nonlinear Kalman filters; (3) Employing dependent nonlinear Kalman filters in state estimators of heavy machinery; (4) Tuning algorithms for the covariance matrix of plant noise in the state estimation of heavy machinery. 

I will consolidate and leverage my research career and position as a leading researcher in the field through integration in Assoc. Prof. Mohammad Poursina’s group at the Department of Engineering Sciences of the University of Agder (UiA), Norway. Here, I will acquire hands-on experience of working with actual mechatronic systems and develop efficient control algorithms. I will improve my knowledge of fluid power designing, control theory, instrumentation, and develop efficient coding skills. I will also develop entrepreneurial skills. The skills, knowledge, and international network that I will develop during this fellowship will put me in an excellent position to achieve my long-term goal of becoming a professor with my own independent research group at an esteemed university in EU. This fellowship will help me to prepare a strong ERC Starting Grant application in the future. It will also cater my additional goal of setting-up a research-related start-up in the future.

Algebraic Theory of Information Quantities

Information theory is a discipline at the intersection of statistics, engineering and computer science. As the study of information quantities, such as compression or communication capacities, information content or measures of statistical dependency, it is one of the theoretical underpinnings of data science.

Computational problems in information theory are highly non-linear. The goal of this project is to transfer state-of-the-art methods of computational non-linear algebra to information theory, to study the inherent algebraic complexity of information-theoretical problems and to provide tools for solving them in practice. The algebraic point of view has proven to be fruitful in seemingly unrelated areas, as witnessed by a surge of recent work in algebraic statistics, in particular on likelihood geometry. However, maximizing the likelihood function is the same as minimizing relative entropy — a specific information quantity. Hence, this project also aims at generalizing the techniques developed in likelihood geometry.

One focus is on the practical computation of information quantities using numerical and differential algebraic geometry. Such quantities are defined via non-linear optimization problems and we aim to pinpoint the algebraic complexity of these problems in instances of general interest, such as common information measures. The final objective is finding fundamental laws and limits of data science imposed by non-linear inequalities constraining the entropic region. These inequalities provide, by duality, universal bounds for many of the optimization problems studied in information theory.

WHeelchair Activity Monitoring project (WHAM)

Wheelchair users (WCU) are three to five times more inactive than the general population, leading to a high risk of developing preventable secondary conditions. Although physical activity (PA) guidelines have been specifically developed for WCU, we lack systematic approaches to implement them in practice, as well as valid algorithms to monitor PA change in WCU through sensor-based solutions. Accordingly, the overall scientific aim of the WHeelchair Activity Monitoring project (WHAM) is to advance PA research and practice in WCU by developing valid digital markers for monitoring of and providing feedback on PA, paving the way for implementation and intervention. I will accomplish this through combining the complementary research fields of 1) behavioural intervention studies focusing on increasing PA in WCU (core competence University of British Columbia, UBC; outgoing phase) and 2) sensor-based PA monitoring (core competence Norwegian University of Science and Technology, NTNU; returning phase – consolidated by non-academic placement at Maastricht Instruments, which develop research prototypes including PA monitors). WHAM’s scientific aim is achieved through three objectives: 1) Measure the effect of a pragmatic exercise intervention trial on self-reported physical activity levels and cardio-respiratory fitness, 2) Develop valid algorithms for tracking PA markers in WCU, and 3) Co-create a framework that outlines how PA can be conjointly monitored and provided feedback on in WCU. This fellowship will enable me to become established as an internationally recognized researcher in the field of “physical activity and disability”, while bringing together ongoing national disjointed research activities in this field. Altogether, my overall ambition is to contribute to reducing inequalities in daily-life participation among WCU compared to the rest of the population.

EOSC Beyond: advancing innovation and collaboration for research

EOSC Beyond overall objective is to advance Open Science and innovation in research in the context of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) by providing new EOSC Core capabilities allowing scientific applications to find, compose and access multiple Open Science resources and offer them as integrated capabilities to researchers. To do so, EOSC Beyond supports a new concept of EOSC: a federated and integrated network of Nodes operated at different levels, national, regional, international and thematic, to serve the specific scientific missions of their stakeholders. Further specific objectives of the project are to accelerate ‘time to product’ of new scientific applications with software adapters, enable Open Science with machine composability and dynamic deployment of shared resources, support innovation in EOSC with a testing and integration environment, and align the EOSC Core architecture and specifications to integrate with European dataspaces. The project extends the state of the art of the EOSC Core and adopts a co-design methodology, including requirements elicitation, software development and validation in collaboration with different use cases from EOSC national and regional initiatives (e-Infra CZ, Czechia, NFDI, Germany, and NI4OS, South East Europe region), thematic research infrastructures from Social Sciences and Humanities (CESSDA), Life Sciences (CNB-CSIC and Instruct-ERIC), Environmental Science (ENES and LifeWatch), and Health and Food (METROFood-RI). EOSC Beyond builds on the capacities of prospective EOSC Nodes and partners with multi-annual experience in developing solutions for large-scale federated digital infrastructures and aligns with the technical architecture and requirements of data spaces from different business sectors. Ultimately, EOSC Beyond supports Open Science in modern, data-intensive, and multidisciplinary research, facilitating resource discovery, access, and reuse across scientific communities, organisations, and countries.

Engineering carbon quantum dots for zinc ion hybrid capacitors

Zinc ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs) integrate two energy storage mechanisms of battery-type electrode and capacitive electrode, bearing the advantages in energy density, power density, and safety. Until now, the cycle retention rate of ZIHC's capacity reported is still not more than 80%, restricting its development and commercial application severely. Focusing on the issue, the project aims at overcoming the limitation of traditional electrode materials and re-defining the designing concept to construct Carbon Quantum Dots (C-QDs) for ZIHCs. Advanced methods will be used to harvest carbon quantum dots from coal tar pitch (a sort of industrial solid castoff). The bulk sp2-carbon network, innumerable edge sites, profuse surface functional groups, and regular size ensures that as-synthesis C-QDs have high electrical conductivity, sufficient ion transport channels and rich adsorption sites. Moreover, the new concept of dynamic evolution is introduced for insight into the structure and interface failure of ZIHC's electrode. The interface-reconstruction mechanism and the attenuation model of capacity will be established for the first time. Further, the methods to strengthen structures of C-QD electrode will be developed based on a trade-off strategy. The ultimate goal is to improve the energy storage efficiency of ZIHCs by 20% and to increase their cycle performance more than 95% unprecedentedly. This research will develop long-running high performance ZIHCs, for contributing European energy storage industry. The ER will achieve abundant research experience and scientific skills from the project and the capability to launch her own research group in future.

A thematic and geographic focus will be the hallmark of the proposed transnational Calls, aligning with the Lighthouse Regions, that is, the Baltic and the North Sea Basins, Black Sea, Atlantic/Arctic, and Mediterranean Sea along with their associated rivers.

EOSC-ENTRUST: A European Network of TRUSTed research environments

The mission of EOSC-ENTRUST is to create a European network of trusted research environments for sensitive data and to drive European interoperability by joint development of a common blueprint for federated data access and analysis. 
Countries and institutions have made significant investments in secure and trusted data environments to meet the need for research and policy-driven analysis of sensitive datasets such as people's health and socio-economic status, the habitats of vulnerable species and geo-spatial locations of protected sites. There are now a large number of such secure environments in operation - linked to national centres, individual organisations or specific research communities. This fragmented landscape poses challenges for both users and providers: researchers are faced with a large number of different systems and access procedures; providers need to manage federated access across multiple, potentially incompatible, technology and governance frameworks.
EOSC-ENTRUST brings together providers of operational Trusted Research Environments from 15 European countries with a shared goal to implement, validate and promote their capabilities through a common European framework using shared standards and common legal, operational and technical language. This blueprint for interoperability is anchored in the EOSC Interoperability Framework spanning the four dimensions of Legal, Organisational, Technical and Semantic interoperability. EOSC-ENTRUST has identified four driver projects covering Genomics, Clinical trials, Social science, and public-private partnerships to benchmark capabilities, inform blueprint design and demonstrate secure  data analysis using federated workflows.
Targeted outreach activities will expand this open network with further providers and develop policy papers and guidelines for the full range of stakeholders to create a long-term operational TRE framework within the European Open Science Cloud.

INOREG. INnovations in use Of REGister data in analyzing effects of health care interventions in primary care.

Recent strategic initiatives from the Norwegian government and parliament calls out for research on how multimorbidity, primary and municipal health care services influence work participation, functioning, quality of life and use of specialized care for chronic patients. Although the vast majority of care occurs outside of hospitals, this care has been difficult to capture and limited in research. Focusing on two important chronic groups, patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD), the INOREG project will meet exactly this need. The primary aim of the project is to identify ways of improving care in the municipality, resulting in higher social and working life participation, reduced hospitalization, better functioning and overall quality of life for the patients involved. This is achieved using a novel approach combining analyses of primary and municipal care patient register data and in-depth studies of patients having particularly good or poor results of treatment. In short, identify combinations of care that seems to work well, and those that do not seem to work. We will also identify the characteristics of patients that are especially vulnerable to poor outcomes. The results should inform policy makers on how services can be designed in order to prepare for the expected future challenges to the overall sustainability of the health system, both due to the increase in the share of elderly and the increase in patients with chronic diseases. In the long term, this may contribute to better coordination and use of care services as well as reduced health inequality.

INOREG addresses two of the main policy challenges related to the primary and municipal health care system: The need for more information on how variations in health care services and multimorbidity affect outcomes, and the lack of a necessary data foundation onto which the future direction and design of the services can be based. We will
undertake register-based analyses to find effects of multimorbidity, primary and municipal care variables on outcomes such as employment, hospital admissions and quality of life, concentrating on two patient groups that represent different needs: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Musculoskeletal disorders. Both groups use a wide range of the health services offered by municipalities and primary care. They are both care intensive and vulnerable to sick leaves, disbility benefits, hospitalization and poor functioning. This means that there are cost savings to be made by first identifying characteristics of patients at particularly high risk of poor outcomes, and second by improving services within primary and municipal care for these patients. By supplementing these quantitative data with qualitative data using mixed-method methodology, INREG will identify reasons and determinants for variability in patient pathways and the outcomes mentioned above. This will be done through in-depth studies of the decisions and prioritizations at micro-level using individual patient journals. Emphasis will then be put on identification of interventions and services modifiable by the municipalities, and that can be implemented in community health care. Through four work packages we will obtain knowledge on how to obtain data of high quality as well as how to use and interpret the data. We will also develop analytical methods that can be applied extracted data from the planned registry. Through close cooperation with municipalities, clinicians and patients, INOREG targets relevant topics for the stakeholders.

INOREG: INnovations in use Of REGister data for analyzing effects of primary and municipal care in patients with chronic diseases

Det er et gap mellom insentiver og målsetninger for akselerert bruk av batterier i maritime sektor og de faktiske forbedringer som operatører og redere erfarer.  Samtidig opplever flere norske skipsredere og operatører et økende økonomisk press  for å gi betydelige bidrag til det grønne skiftet, blant annet gjennom innstallering av batterier

Hovedmålet er å fremskaffe og teste metodikk for å optimalisere driften av batterier på batterihybride fartøyer for å maksimere nytteverdien av installerte batterier. Dette vil gjøres med utgangspunkt i allerede målte data på to kommersielle fartøyer samt målinger som vil bli gjort underveis i prosjektet. Optimaliseringen skal hensynta hvordan utslipp, drivstofforbruk, batteri degenerering og slitasje på dieselmotororer påvirkes av valgt driftsstrategi. Strategier vil bli testet ut på to kommersielle fartøy  i løpet av prosjektperioden. Prosjektet har videre som mål publisere resultater for derigjennom å bidra til å øke investorers tiltro til at installasjon av batterier vil være fordelaktig.

To remain at the forefront of international efforts towards the electrification of waterborne transport, this project aims at increasing the operational benefits of marine batteries (MBs) on vessels by 5 to 10%. The project consortium has brought Havila, Equinor, Corvus, SINTEF and IFE together. To unlock MB extra operational benefits, three major innovations have been planned as follows.  

Firstly, a new integrated MB operational model will improve the current operational models by integrating three new MB operational modules. The first new MB operational data analysis and learning module will use a large amount (6 years) of operational data to highlight MB performances where most improvements could be gained. The second new module: MB degradation diagnosis and laboratory testing of new operational strategies aims to understand and minimize MB degradation under operational conditions on vessels. The third new module will explore MB operations with the existing onshore and future offshore charging facilities. This extends the current MB operations supporting diesel generators by keeping the generator at optimal efficiency.  

Secondly, testing new optimized MB operational strategies has been planned on two commercially operating offshore supply vessels (PSVs) for two and half years. A comprehensive testing program will ensure sufficient iterations to improve new MB operation models and to test 50% optimized MB operational strategies. The workable new optimal MB operational strategies on vessels will be identified. 

Thirdly, roadmaps to enhance investor’s confidence in installing more MBs on vessels will be based on the cost benefit analysis of new MBs integration on vessels and synergies of cross sector collaboration. 

The amount of data and close cooperation between theoretical aspects and practical testing and implementation in this project are unprecedented. This project will have high impact on future R&D of MB applications.
