Welcome to my research group

I am a Professor at the Department of Chemistry at NTNU and responsible for the Thermodynamics group. I am also one of the PIs of the Norwegian Centre of Excellence for research on porous media, Porelab.

Our research group has a broad portfolio of activities within equilibrium and non-equilibrium thermodynamics. We combine experiments, theory and molecular simulations to address a variety of scientific and industrially relevant challenges, where sustainability and development of fundamental knowledge is important. Our lines of research are:

New paper on the Lennard-Jones spline potential

Our article entitled Thermodynamic properties of the 3D Lennard-Jones/spline model has been published in the journal Molecular Physics. The Lennard-Jones spline potential is a truncated LJ potential so that both the pair potential and the force continuously approach zero at rc≈1.74 sigma. The advantage ...

Pauline Zimmermann will make progress on electrodialysis

Pauline Zimmermann shown on the left, started her PhD this autumn. In her PhD, she will investigate to what extent undesired ions in wastewater from industrial processes can be removed by use of electrodialysis by combining cation and anion exchange membranes. She ...

New equation of state and force fields for hydrogen, helium, neon and deuterium

Our article entitled Equation of state and force fields for Feynman–Hibbs-corrected Mie fluids. I. Application to pure helium, neon, hydrogen, and deuterium has just been published in the Journal of Chemical Physics. Liquefaction of hydrogen is a promising method for large-scale transport and distribution ...
