WP1 develops theoretical framework for matrix function factorization, essential for subsequent work in WP2 and applications in WP3-7. It also delivers fundamental outcomes and methods crucial for future exploitation, including reports on factorization procedures, method impact, and hybrid approaches for nonlinear models.
WP2 focuses on developing computational techniques for matrix factorization and solving Boundary Value Problems with moving boundaries. This is crucial for advancing the impact of the analytical methods of EffectFact in various fields and for creating advanced software algorithms.
WP3 explores applications of Wiener-Hopf methods in bio-sciences, delivering analytical and numerical tools for modelling biological systems and solving respective nonlinear problems. The project is pure theoretical and
does not fall within the scope of the EU Access and Benefit Sharing (ABS) Regulation (Nagoya Protocol).
WP4 designs innovative materials like phononic crystals, acoustic and elastic metamaterials and, with applications in controlling wave propagation. The deliverables include studies on microstructural influence of materials for guiding acoustic and elastic waves and guidelines for applying Wiener-Hopf techniques to aid in the development of novel materials.
WP5 develops hybrid methods for enriching testing datasets and training machine learning algorithms using factorization techniques. Focus is also given to data analytic methods and improving neural networks.
WP6 investigates phase transition and fracture propagation in discrete materials, aiming to improve their design and understand failure processes. It also explores failure in biologically inspired materials and civil engineering structures.
WP7 addresses civil and environmental engineering challenges, focusing on constructing resilient defence structures and safer civil engineering assemblies. It also develops numerical codes for robust structure design.
The first reporting period emphasized efforts in WP1-2 and WP6-7, with the associated results presented on the project webpage:
