Experiments on perturbed Saffman-Taylor flows
We have performed pattern formation experiments where a relatively well understood system (flow in a Hele-Shaw cell) is perturbed either by means of a lattice of grooves or by the use of viscoelastic fluids. We have extended ...
Experiments on the role of the number of alternatives in choice
Whereas people are typically thought to be better off with more choices, large sets may lead to "choice paralysis". This thesis explores the processes underlying the choice from multiple alternatives in different settings. ...
Explaining and reducing variability of distribution coefficients of radionuclides in soils: improvement of input data for radiological assessments
The assessment of the potential radiological risk for the human health and the environment that a radioactive contamination episode may entail is one of the most concerning issues in the current society, due to the increasing ...
Explaining the invasive success of the eastern mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki): the role of temperature
The eastern mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki) is one of the most widely distributed and invasive inland fish. It is known that it has not been established in northern Europe or upstream of rivers, where the temperature is ...
