This is the last publication from Ailo Aasen , David Reguera and Øivind Wilhelmsen available under the PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 124, Issue 4. The study of nucleation in fluid mixtures exposes challenges beyond those of pure systems. A striking example is homogeneous condensation in highly surface-active water alcohol mixtures, where classical nucleation theory yields an
A landmark national agreement has been signed on January 28, 2020 by the Norwegian Directorate for ICT and Joint Services in Higher Education & Research (Unit) and the leading open access publisher Frontiers. The terms of the agreement will simplify the publishing process for Norwegian researchers who publish in Frontiers’ journals. The deal includes a
The University of Grenoble is organizing a short workshop on “Mechanics of geomaterials from micro to macro“, which will be held in Grenoble (France) on June 29 and 30, as a pre-event to the IACMAG conference in Torino. This short event will be devoted to multi-scale numerical modelling in geotechnical engineering and geomechanics. The first

During the
The last article from Astrid Gunnarshaug, Signe Kjelsptrup and Dick Bedeaux entitled “The heat of transfer and the Peltier coefficient of electrolyte mixtures” was accepted for publication under the Journal Chemical Physics Letters: X DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cpletx.2019.100040 Congratulations! Abstract We prove that the heats of transfer of a mixture of solvents can be expressed by their
Congratulations to Magnus Aa. Gjennestad and Øivind Wilhelmsen ! Their article on “Thermodynamic stability of droplets, bubbles and thick films in open and closed pores” is one of the most downloaded Fluid Phase Equilibria articles in the last 90 days. This is a major accomplishment! Their article is available in the volume 505 from 1.
Dr. Tom Bultrey, winner of the 2019 InterPore-PoreLab award for young researchers, came for a short visit in PoreLab Trondheim in the period 13-17 January 2020. He came to visit different PoreLab teams and to scope out specific collaborative projects. The program for his visit can be found here. A workshop was organised on January 13th, 2020, in his
CSC2I Spring course from 30 March – 3 April 2020, TU Delft, The Netherlands The course on Corrosion Science & Corrosion Control for Infrastructure (CSC2I) www.csc2i.tudelft.nl is an interdisciplinary course, encompassing fundamental aspects of corrosion science & technology, corrosion control and materials science for civil engineering. The course targets material classes as metals & alloys, concrete,
Lithium ion batteries are used to store and produce electric energy. During the charging- and discharging processes, net heat is released or adsorbed in the battery. Temperature is one of the most important factors for battery ageing. In this study we are seeking a fundamental understanding of one of the heat effects, the reversible heat
