This week, Kristian Wold will tell us about quantum chaos. Kristian is a PhD candidate at OsloMet: 

Hylleraas seminar, hosted in Oslo

Doctoral candidate Kilian Krikova at the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis "Small-scale energetic phenomena in Hε: line formation and diagnostic potential" for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

PhD candidate Aleksandr Berezovski at the Department of Biosciences, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis 'Optical effects and coastal darkening caused by terrestrially-derived dissolved organic matter' for the degree of PhD.

Uneven solid surfaces are ubiquitous in Nature and can significantly impact fluid flow over them. In this presentation I will discuss two different configurations were the wall unevenness govern fluid transport.
First, I will consider wet ceilings. When liquid is coated on an upside-down surface, it destabilizes to form pendant drops surrounded by a thin film of liquid. I will show that these pendant drops ‘feel’ surface defects even though they have no contact line. The defects induce a gravito-capillary pinning-like force that can be harnessed to control the drop motion.
Second, I will consider hairy pipes. Many biological surfaces are covered with long and elastic filaments or ‘hairs’. I will show that when a fluidic channel is covered with hairs, the hydraulic resistance can become non-linear. This non-linearity is mediated by the hair flexibility and degree of channel obstruction and can be rationalized with a multi-scale model.

_{Weekly Theory Seminar.}

Arnt-Børre Salberg is a Chief Research Scientist at the Norsk Regnesentral, affiliated with the Department of BAMJO (Image Analysis, Machine Learning and Earth Observation).  

His research primarily focuses on the developing deep learning, computer vision, and remote sensing methods to image data. This includes work on forest mapping and monitoring, marine science applications, coastal habitat mapping, foundation models, and analysis of data from various sensors like satellites, seismic, and marine echosounders.
