NANO2021-Nanoteknologi og nye materiale

Arrangement of the 25th “Geilo School” 2019

Tildelt: kr 99 999

The main theme of the School, Evolving Soft Matter, is in the forefront of current research in the area of soft matter and biological systems using the tools in physics. The subthemes of the School are outlined below. A) Shape is an important concept in many areas of soft matter like colloidal and interface science, crumpling of two-dimensional sheets, as well as surfaces and membranes in biology. The description and control of shape in surfaces and interfaces is thus of wide interest in evolving soft matter systems. B) Dynamics in evolving soft matter occurs as nonequilibrium phenomena where local shape and curvedness changes in moving surfaces and interfaces as for example in growth, fracture, deformation, pattern formation, flocking behavior and morphogenesis in living matter. C) Functionality of evolving soft matter is important in many applications like the use of foams, adhesives, detergents, cosmetics, paints, food additives, lubricants, smart materials and soft robotics. In addition, functionality is obviously abundantly important in all biological materials. Topics will cover both experiments and theory. In addition to about 40 hours of invited lectures and seminars, there will be tutorials and discussions. Participants are encouraged to submit abstracts for a poster session.
