In addition to the reception and conference banquet, please join us for a guided tour at the Iron Age farm at Ullandhaug which is a living, open-air museum that is open all year round. Open fireplaces provide warmth and atmosphere in the longhouses. Sitting around these open fires gives visitors an intriguing feeling, knowing that a family sat right here 1500 years ago!
More information later.
Prof. Pier Luca Maffettone, PhD, is Full Professor in Chemical Engineering at the University of Naples "Federico II" where he was [2013-18] Chairman of the Department of Chemical-Materials-and-Production Engineering and is [2020-] Member of the University Board. He graduated in 1988 in Chemical Engineering under the supervision of Prof. G. Marrucci, and received the Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering at the University of Naples “Federico II” in 1993 under the supervision of Prof. G. Astarita. Pier Luca Maffettone became Assistant Professor in Chemical Engineering at the University of Naples “Federico II” in 1994. In 1998 he became Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering at Politecnico di Torino, and then became Full Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Naples “Federico II” in 2005. He was visiting scientist at the University of Delaware, at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, at the Stanford University, and at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology. His main research activity is focused on modeling and simulation of the flow behavior of soft matter.
More information on his biography and abstract can be found here.Prof. Helen Wilson has a PhD in applied mathematics from the University of Cambridge, where she worked on instabilities in viscoelastic fluids. Moving to Chemical Engineering for postdoctoral research at the University of Colorado at Boulder, she became interested in suspension mechanics. These two themes have continued through her career, first as a lecturer at the University of Leeds, and later at UCL in London where she has recently completed a 5-year term as Head of the Department of Mathematics. She was President of the British Society of Rheology from 2015-2017.
Applied Rheology is kindly inviting authors to register at their processing system and submit their contribution (both original papers or reviews are welcome). All manuscripts will undergo the standard peer-review process (single-blind, at least two independent reviewers) and will be treated in the same way as other regular articles (indexing, abstracting, immediate publication, etc.). Instructions for authors are available here.
The submission deadline is 31.07.2024.
In case of any questions please contact Open Chemistry Managing Editor: Małgorzata Komadowska
