Project description DEENESFRITPL Unnatural materials may protect structures from natural and man-made vibrations Rumbling of the ground beneath our feet can originate from a variety of sources, both below and above the ground. Whether caused by the passage of cars and trains, construction or mining or by seismic events, these ground-based vibrations can have an important impact on structures and infrastructure – and on people in the case of failure. The EU-funded INSPIRE project is harnessing the combined potential of bright young researchers and metamaterials in a training network focussed on developing man-made materials engineered to inhibit wave propagation in all spatial directions. Show the project objective Hide the project objective Objective IINSPIRE aims to foster a new generation of highly qualified researchers and engineers, which will create a critical mass kernel, able to implement a holistic and novel soil-foundation-structure concept for the efficient protection of structures from all ground induced hazards, including earthquakes and all other sources of low-frequency noise and vibration excitations. This concept offers a drastic breakthrough over the existing approaches in crucial aspects:A)Wave inhibition capabilities over broadband low-frequency excitation in all three spatial directions B)General applicability to broad classes of structures and infrastructures C)Simple, reliable and resilient design, leading to easy and low-cost implementation and maintenanceINSPIRE mainly relies on recent innovative scientific and technological concepts, mainly developed within the broad concept of meta-materials. The notion of “meta-materials” refers to natural or artificial materials or structures which exhibit extraordinary properties for inhibiting or conditioning wave propagation in all spatial directions over broad frequency bands. Quite recently, the feasibility of the application of meta-material concepts has been also demonstrated for seismic and infrasound waves. These general developments of metamaterials will be further enriched and advanced through novel absorption and isolation concepts, such as negative effective mass and stiffness Fields of science natural sciencesearth and related environmental sciencesgeologyseismology Keywords SEISMIC-PROTECTION NOISE-PROTECTION META-MATERIALS Programme(s) H2020-EU.1.3. - EXCELLENT SCIENCE - Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Main Programme H2020-EU.1.3.1. - Fostering new skills by means of excellent initial training of researchers Topic(s) MSCA-ITN-2018 - Innovative Training Networks Call for proposal H2020-MSCA-ITN-2018 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme MSCA-ITN - Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Networks (ITN) Coordinator ETHNICON METSOVION POLYTECHNION Net EU contribution € 486 035,28 Address HEROON POLYTECHNIOU 9 ZOGRAPHOU CAMPUS 157 80 ATHINA Greece See on map Region Αττική Aττική Κεντρικός Τομέας Αθηνών Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Total cost € 486 035,28 Participants (12) Sort alphabetically Sort by Net EU contribution Expand all Collapse all UNIVERSITA DEGLI STUDI DI TRENTO Italy Net EU contribution € 261 499,68 Address VIA CALEPINA 14 38122 Trento See on map Region Nord-Est Provincia Autonoma di Trento Trento Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Total cost € 261 499,68 EIDGENOESSISCHE TECHNISCHE HOCHSCHULE ZUERICH Switzerland Net EU contribution € 562 553,28 Address Raemistrasse 101 8092 Zuerich See on map Region Schweiz/Suisse/Svizzera Zürich Zürich Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Total cost € 562 553,28 CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE CNRS Participation ended France Net EU contribution € 0,00 Address RUE MICHEL ANGE 3 75794 Paris See on map Region Ile-de-France Ile-de-France Paris Activity type Research Organisations Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Total cost No data UNIVERSITE DE LILLE France Net EU contribution € 274 802,04 Address 42 RUE PAUL DUEZ 59000 Lille See on map Region Hauts-de-France Nord-Pas de Calais Nord Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Total cost € 274 802,04 RHEINLAND-PFALZISCHE TECHNISCHE UNIVERSITAT Germany Net EU contribution € 252 788,40 Address GOTTLIEB DAIMLER STRASSE 67663 Kaiserslautern See on map Region Rheinland-Pfalz Rheinhessen-Pfalz Kaiserslautern, Kreisfreie Stadt Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Total cost € 252 788,40 ALMA MATER STUDIORUM - UNIVERSITA DI BOLOGNA Italy Net EU contribution € 522 999,36 Address VIA ZAMBONI 33 40126 Bologna See on map Region Nord-Est Emilia-Romagna Bologna Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Total cost € 522 999,36 UNIVERSITE DE MONS Belgium Net EU contribution € 256 320,00 Address PLACE DU PARC 20 7000 Mons See on map Region Région wallonne Prov.
