  1. 2003 AMS WorkshopUCL, Louvain-la-Neuve, 22 October 2003 Hendrik Van Brussel K.U.Leuven – Division PMA Belgium hendrik.vanbrussel@mech.kuleuven.ac.be www.mech.kuleuven.ac.be/pma

  2. Advanced Mechatronic Systems • What? • Interuniversity Attraction Pole (IAP) nr. IAPV/06 • Financially supported by the Belgian Federal Science Policy Office, Ministry of Science and Economy, Minister: Mrs. Fientje Moerman • Duration: 5 yrs (2002-2006) • Budget: 2 850 000 Euro • Project officers: Mrss. Véronique Feys and Corinne Lejour

  3. Advanced Mechatronic Systems • Aim • Foster and stimulate collaboration in fundamental research into selected open problem areas in mechatronics • Develop methods for integrated design, control and optimisation of complex mechatronic systems • Proof of concepts through generic demonstrators

  4. Advanced Mechatronic Systems • Consortium • PMA/KULeuven, Principal partner • CEREM/UCL, Associate partner • ASL/ULB, Associate partner • ARTI/VUB, Associate partner • AMEC, KULeuven, Associate partner • PSI/MICAS, ESAT, KULeuven, Associate partner • LTAS, ULg, Corresponding partner • LAAS, Toulouse, European partner • ISVR, Southampton, European partner

  5. Advanced Mechatronic Systems • Work programme • WP1: Modelling, Control and Optimisation of Mechatronic Systems • WP2: Micromechatronic systems • WP3: Nanomanipulation • WP4: Dealing with complex environments and user/machine interaction

  6. Advanced Mechatronic Systems • International Advisory Committee • Prof. Jan van Eijk, TUDelft, Philips • Prof. Frans Groen, Univ. Amsterdam • Prof. Andres Keczkemethy, Univ. Duisburg

  7. Advanced Mechatronic Systems • Management structure • General Project manager (GPM): Hendrik Van Brussel • Workpackage managers: • WP1: Paul Fisette, Wim Desmet + Jan Swevers • WP2: Dominiek Reynaerts • WP3: André Preumont • WP4: Marnix Nuttin • Project Management Committee (PMC) • PMC + Local Project Managers (LPM) • Workpackage Technical Committees (WPTCs) • WP manager organises ad hoc meetings

  8. Advanced Mechatronic Systems • Points of attention • Excellent inspiring environment for Ph.D. students! • Use the possibilities for contacts and exchanges offered by the project and by the workshop • Make new contacts here! • Visibility to the outside world as a group is enhanced through • Participation as a group in EU-proposals. Ex.: Network of Excellence in Mechatronics (not approved yet) • New activity, sponsored by OSTC, with limited consortium of 12 EU-labs, to prepare the next EU-submission • Plans for an International Mechatronics Conference in 2005-2006, eventually in collaboration with an international organisation (IFToMM?, IFAC?, …) • Website • http://www.mech.kuleuven.ac.be/pma/project/ams (Michael Devoldere)
