Nordic Rheology Awards

NRS may present two awards a year and all members of NRS are encouraged to propose nominees. The Carl Klason Rheology Award and the Young Rheologists Rheology Award are given to persons active in the Nordic countries.

The Carl Klason Rheology Award amounting to 1000 Euro may be given to a person who either

  • has made outstanding contributions to the basic understanding of rheological phenomena or to the application of rheology, or
  • has made outstanding contributions to the progress of rheology in one or more of the Nordic countries.

The Young Rheologists Rheology Award with 500 Euro may be given to a young person who has made outstanding work in basic or applied rheology at the graduate or postgraduate level.

The awardees are selected from the nominations by the Award Committee which consists of Annika Sahlström, Kurt Ingar Draget, Ole Hassager and Jón Elvar Wallevik. A letter describing the nominee and a motivation can be sent to the NRS president before January 15 every year or when separately announced.

 

 

  HIGHLIGHTS
NanoLund/RheoMAXESS Workshop on Scattering for Soft Matter: static and in flow
Learn more about scattering for soft matter, including a hands-on session in the afternoon!

🗓️ When: 29 September, 2025, 09:00-17:00
📍 Where: LINXS (The Loop, Rydbergs torg 4, 224 84)
👨‍🏫 Organisers: NanoLund/RheoMAXESS theme at LINXS

This workshop will cover neutron and synchrotron X-ray techniques to probe soft matter, including small angle scattering, reflectivity and imaging. We will describe sample environments that allow both static measurements and time-resolved data collection, including combined measurements enabling simultaneous data collection with techniques such as rheology, dynamic mechanical analysis, polarised light imaging and flow in microchannels.

In the afternoon data analysis session, we will present typical analysis software and allow participants to try data fitting with their own, or supplied data (see survey during registration)
