Using mathematics to understand how the brain worksData and mathematics can help us analyze and simulate how networks of braincells work. This is the topic of Jan-Eirik Welle Skaar’s doctoral dissertation at NMBU.
Producing biodiesel from coffee grounds and eggshellsHow many times can a product be used before it becomes useless? Researchers at NMBU are investigating whether they can employe used coffee grounds and shells from mussels, shrimp, or eggs to produce b…
Feeding fungi with Norwegian spruce to produce biofuelCristian Bolaño Losada has researched how we can use a type of fungus, called Mucoromycota, to produce oils and other useful products in a sustainable way. He used Norwegian spruce as feedstock for th…
Coupling Molecular Thermodynamic Models for Predicting Thermophysical Properties in Continuum Simulations
BatCAT modelling and simulation initiative: On the path of modelling liquid electrolytes on the mesoscopic scaleRedox Flow Batteries (RFBs) rely on fluid electrolytes as charge carriers. Water – the most abundant liquid on our planet – is naturally the main solvent for vanadium-based RFBs. As would be expected…
