Tidlegare arrangement - Side 45

Welcome to this year's first gathering of the Oil & Society research network, which will focus on carbon capture and storage (CCS).

Doctoral candidate Harish Jain at the Department of Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis "Collective emergent behaviour of active cellular systems" for the degree of PhD.

Kjære bachelorstudenter med prosjektoppgave (KJM3010/20, MENA3020)

QOMBINE seminar by Håkon R. Fredheim (University of Oslo)

Three workshops will be organized for potential applicants to new convergence environments. At least one person from each project must attend one workshop in order to apply.

Join us in this Open Science Lunch session to hear about the work that is done to allow Norwegian researchers to read and to publish. What do libraries and publishers negotiate about on behalf of researchers and journals - and should researchers care?

Velkommen til dette studentarrangementet. Her blir du kjent med jobbmuligheter, får deg en matbit og treffer andre studenter. Denne gangen får du møte Silje som jobber som ingeniør på dopinganalyser ved Oslo Universitetssykehus og Sigurd som er medstifter og vitenskapelig sjef i Node Pharma. 

Qombine presentation by Delphine Martres (UiO): postponed to 5 March 2025

Lauren Barth-Cohen will hold a seminar about students sense making about conceptual and procedural inconsistencies in an introduction physics lab. 

The concept of the seminar is to stimulate academic, industrial and educational exchange between Norway and Japan.

Go on exchange to the world's northernmost campus, 78° north! As a science student at UiO, you can take courses at the University Center on Svalbard (UNIS) as part of your degree.

Center for Planetary Habitability

This week, Viktor Svensson will tell us about tensor network

Recent advances in experimental techniques have enabled remarkable discoveries and insight into how the dynamics of thin gas/vapour films can profoundly influence the behaviour of liquid droplets: drops impacting solids can “skate on a film of air” [1], so that they can “bounce off walls” [2,3]; reductions in ambient gas pressure can suppress splashing [4] and initiate the merging of colliding droplets [5]; and evaporating droplets can levitate on their own vapour film [7] (the Leidenfrost effect). Despite these advances, the precise physical mechanisms governing these phenomena remain a topic of debate.  A theoretical approach would shed light on these issues, but due to the strongly multiscale nature of these processes brute force computation is infeasible.  Furthermore, when films reach the scale of the mean free path in the gas (i.e. ~100nm) and below, new nanoscale physics appears that renders the classical Navier-Stokes paradigm inaccurate.

In this talk, I will overview our development of efficient computational models for the aforementioned droplet dynamics in the presence of gas nanofilms into which gas-kinetic, van der Waals and/or evaporative effects can be easily incorporated [8,9].  It will be shown that these models can reproduce experimental observations – for example, the threshold between bouncing and wetting for drop impact on a solid is reproduced to within 5%, whilst a model excluding either gas-kinetic or van der Waals effects is ~170% off!  These models will then be exploited to make new experimentally-verifiable predictions, such as how we expect drops to behave in reduced pressure environments.  Finally, I will conclude with some exciting directions for future work.

Dear last semester master student KJEMI/MENA/Lektor

Doctoral candidate Ola Sande at the Department of Mathematics will be defending the thesis Hyperétale Framed Correspondences for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

Welcome to the first SUSTAINITtalk where Professor Einar Broch Johnsen will present the innovative project, Digital Twin. What is a digital twin?

“Oxides as Pt Capture Materials - Combining Experiments and Theory”

Alexander is Professor of music technology and Director of RITMO Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Rhythm, Time and Motion (IMV) at the University of Oslo.

This week, Kishore Thapliyal will tell us more about sensing, by giving a journal club on the paper:
