Former FLOW PhD student Nicolò Fabbiane has won the ERCOFTAC da Vinci Prize for his PhD thesis ’Transition delay in boundary-layer flows via reactive control'. Nicolò was one of the five finalist who presented their research works at the recent ERCOFTAC meeting in Delft.
Outi Tammisola and Luca Brandt have been awarded a Marie Curie RISE grant on the proposal Control of Turbulent Friction Force (CTFF). The KTH part of the proposal is to study smart surfaces for drag reduction. The funding is 500k € for the consortium and it is to be used for mobility of researchers and training.
FLOW PhD student Jacopo Canton won the "GKN aerospace award in mechanics" at the 25th Svenska Mekanikdagarna in the historical university town of Uppsala, with a prize sum of 20kkr.
The Swedish technical newspaper, NyTeknik, has dedicated an article to the research of Docent Christophe Duwig. The topic is new technologies for harvesting waste heat and pressure in a Fuel Cell based power-train. The academic focus is on complex thermodynamic effects in fluid flows with expansion.
The paper ‘Ultrastrong and Bioactive Nanostructured Bio-Based Composites’ by Nitesh Mittal, Ronnie Jansson, Mona Widhe, Tobias Benselfelt, Karl Håkansson, Fredrik Lundell, My Hedhammar and Daniel Söderberg has been published in ACS Nano, the second highest ranked journal in the area of Nanotechnology and top ten in the area of Material Science. The research is a collaboration between scientists from Linné FLOW Centre, Wallenberg Wood Science Center, the School of Biotechnology at KTH and RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden).
