Building machines to solve our most complex problems
Wallenberg Scholar Johan Åkerman has his sights set on solving combinatorial optimization problems using large networks of oscillators.
Understanding flowing, soft particles – a step toward artificial blood
The flow of complex fluids is impacted by velocity, pressure, and the softness of its particles. The last-mentioned factor is the one that has been least explored. Andrea Scotti wants to understand the effect of softness on the particle flow in both synthetic and natural complex fluids. This knowledge might pave the way for creating a synthetic form of blood.
