Summary
New models of replacement care for working carers. This project aims to investigate the replacement care arrangements that will support different groups of informal carers of a person with a disability, chronic illness or older relative to participate in paid work in contemporary Australia. Using mixed methods, field trials, and an innovative conceptual approach focused on time synchronicity, it will generate critical new knowledge about the characteristics and effectiveness of sustainable repla ....New models of replacement care for working carers. This project aims to investigate the replacement care arrangements that will support different groups of informal carers of a person with a disability, chronic illness or older relative to participate in paid work in contemporary Australia. Using mixed methods, field trials, and an innovative conceptual approach focused on time synchronicity, it will generate critical new knowledge about the characteristics and effectiveness of sustainable replacement care models that enable carers to enter or increase paid work and maintain work/care balance. Significant benefits include improving aged, disability and carer service models and policies to enhance women’s workforce participation, boost national productivity, and improve carer wellbeing.Read moreRead less

Summary
Triple hybrid fuel-cell-based propulsion for long-range eVTOL operations. AMSL Aero's Vertiia is an Australian-developed electric Vertical Take Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft that will provide rapid response air ambulance and low-cost passenger transport for rural Australia. This project will optimise a fuel cell/battery/ultracapacitor triple hybrid system for Vertiia by combining dynamic energy source models, hardware-in-the-loop simulations, aero-propulsive flight mechanics models, and accel ....Triple hybrid fuel-cell-based propulsion for long-range eVTOL operations. AMSL Aero's Vertiia is an Australian-developed electric Vertical Take Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft that will provide rapid response air ambulance and low-cost passenger transport for rural Australia. This project will optimise a fuel cell/battery/ultracapacitor triple hybrid system for Vertiia by combining dynamic energy source models, hardware-in-the-loop simulations, aero-propulsive flight mechanics models, and accelerated degradation testing. The triple hybrid will extend the life of both batteries and fuel cells for eVTOL aircraft. It will allow AMSL to fast-track the improved durability needed for cost-competitive long-range eVTOL operations, giving them an up-front and industry-leading experience on hybrid systems for eVTOLs.Read moreRead less

Summary
Scalable semiconductor quantum processor with flip chip bonding technology. Australia is famous for quantum computing research based on electron spin in silicon quantum dot. This project aims to enable the manufacturing of such scalable quantum processor. Currently, superconducting quantum processor has reached >100 of qubits by the utilization of 3D integration fabrication technology such as flip chip bonding. Likewise, for semiconductor spin-qubit to grow, it is inevitable that novel 3D archit ....Scalable semiconductor quantum processor with flip chip bonding technology. Australia is famous for quantum computing research based on electron spin in silicon quantum dot. This project aims to enable the manufacturing of such scalable quantum processor. Currently, superconducting quantum processor has reached >100 of qubits by the utilization of 3D integration fabrication technology such as flip chip bonding. Likewise, for semiconductor spin-qubit to grow, it is inevitable that novel 3D architecture by expanding the building block to the next dimension must be explored to pave the way to scalable semiconductor quantum processor. This project will spearhead Australia's semiconductor quantum processor to the realm of hundreds of qubits and put this technology on par with superconducting quantum processor.Read moreRead less
