In process engineering fluids are exposed to shear, rotation and temperature differences leading to complex flow patterns.

Dissolution kinetics of copper-based nanoparticles (diameter 10 nm) adapted to the environment for targeting of tumour cells (red) without affecting healthy body cells (green). Diameter of cells about 20 µm.

A team led by theoretical physicist Professor Thomas Frauenheim (University of Bremen) and Dr. Antonietta De Sio (University of Oldenburg) has observed directional energy transport between molecules of a nanomaterial for the first time. The results have now been published in Nature Nanotechnology.

The Priority Program "Creation of synergies in customised mixtures of heterogeneous powders " applied for by Lutz Mädler and Udo Fritsching from the Process and Chemical Engineering Department at the Leibniz IWT and the University of Bremen was recently selected for funding by the German Research…

It is often more turbulent in the human bloodstream than is actually good for the human body. That is what an international research team led by Dr. Duo Xu from the Center of Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM) at the University of Bremen has found out.

The research group of Professor Peter Maaß from the Center for Technomathematics will receive two million euros to realize new applications using artificial intelligence (AI) as a scientific partner - because AI is inconceivable without a correct and powerful mathematical basis.
