Nordic Rheology Society

Rheology is defined as the science of the deformation and flow of matter, which means that rheology in some form enters almost every study of material properties. In the Nordic countries, rheological measurements have become standard techniques in both industrial and academic research. The Nordic Rheology Society has been formed as a meeting ground for engineers, physicists, chemists and biologists engaged in rheology in industry and academia.

We are glad to announce that Prof. Maria Charalambides will give a plenary lecture at the joint Nordic Rheology Conference & DRG Symposium 2025 in Berlin.

Maria Charalambides (PhD, DIC, CEng, FIMechE) is a Professor in Mechanics of Materials at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College London. She is the current President of British Society of Rheology. Amongst Maria’s research interests is mechanics of soft solids and particulate polymeric composites, rheological characterisation and modelling of soft solids found in various applications such as in foods, plastic bonded and granular explosives, paints and plastics in art conservation, adhesives, foams and mechanical recycling of plastic packaging. She leads the Soft Solids research group. Maria has published over 100 papers and has received funding from both industry and Research Councils UK. Her published research includes material modelling and mechanical characterisation, micromechanics models of particulate filled composites as well as cellular and porous structures, experimental and numerical modelling of industrial food processes as well as oral and gastric processes and fracture and deformation in paint and adhesive coatings.

The 33rd Nordic Rheology Conference gathered 75 rheology enthusiasts in Stavanger on May 29-31, 2024. This was the third time that Nordic Rheology Conference was organized in Stavanger, the previous times being in 1996 and 2007. The conference was a great success with insightful scientific presentations, lively discussions and unforgettable social events.
A big thank you to everyone who attended the conference and made it a memorable and enjoyable event for all of us. In particular, we would like to thank the NRC2024 plenary speakers for their exceptional scientific contribution to the conference: Pier Luca Maffettone, Helen Wilson, John Hinch, Manfred Wilhelm and Jan Schäffer.
We would also like to thank the conference sponsors and exhibitors for their financial contribution to the organization of the conference and for showcasing their products and services at the conference: Tine, TA Instruments, Netzsch, Oleinitec, Gammadata Instrument & Thermo Fisher Scientific, Houm, Reokonsa AB and Colloids and Interfaces.
Last but certainly not least, we would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the NRC2024 organizing committee: Conference Chair A. H. Rabenjamanantsoa, Arild Saasen, Vanessa Grace Ochon Booc, Linda Natalie Borho, Guro Mette Viker Bråthen and Kjetil Tjåland.
