The Swedish Electricity Storage and Balancing Centre (SESBC) brought together researchers, companies and public-sector representatives at a conference in Karlstad to discuss future energy solutions.
The Centre has recently been granted funding for a further five years, starting in 2027.
Students at Karlstad University have developed a method that enables more realistic simulations of how future 6G networks could be used for both communications and positioning.
Moyses Araujo, Professor of Physics at Karlstad University, recently participated as a plenary speaker at the Brazilian Materials Research Society Meeting (SBPMat), one of the leading materials science conferences in Latin America.
The conference brought together around 2,300 researchers, engineers and students from across the world to discuss the future of materials for energy, environmental and technological applications.
As one of only seven invited plenary speakers,
"Loneliness is not only about who you live with or how many people you meet," says Malin Knutz, researcher in public health science at Karlstad University. "And young adults stand out in our study."
Many people experience loneliness despite not living alone. This is one of the key findings of a new study conducted by Karlstad University and Region Värmland.
How can forest-based materials be made stronger, more functional and at the same time contribute to a more sustainable industry? This is a question being explored by doctoral researcher Morassa Raouf.
Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) are renewable materials with a large surface area and an excellent ability to form dense networks.
Cleaner process air, efficient energy use, and clothing made from recycled textile waste were among the topics in focus when the EXACT Industrial Research School brought together PhD candidates and industry partners for its autumn meeting at Gammelkroppa Forest School on 30 September.
During the autumn meeting, doctoral students presented their ongoing research projects, while industry representatives provided insights into current challenges and development needs within
Pain management in people with dementia is complex. Pain can manifest itself in many different ways, and changes in behaviour may have several different causes. New research indicate that the solution is not a single assessment tool, but rather a more structured and person-centred care process that helps healthcare staff identify, assess and follow up on pain.
“Small deviations from a person’s usual behaviour can be important signs of pain.
How can recycled wood fibres be used to create sustainable construction materials that also store carbon for long periods of time? This is one of the questions being investigated by two exchange students from France.
Aylal Gaultier and Robin Grandzinski are engineering students at Supmicrotech in France.
When a video call stutters, an online game lags, or a webpage feels slow, internet speed is not always the problem. More often, the issue is network delays, known as latency. In his doctoral thesis, Simon Sundberg investigates how such delays arise and develops new methods for measuring them.
Most people associate network performance with bandwidth, that is, the amount of data that can be transferred per second.
Karlstad University has been awarded SEK 11.5 million from the Swedish Energy Agency and Region Värmland as the SOLVE research centre enters a new five-year phase. The investment will contribute to the development of future solar energy systems and support Sweden’s transition towards a more sustainable energy system.
SOLVE brings together universities, businesses and public-sector organisations in research aimed at enabling a faster expansion of solar energy in Sweden.
On 7 September, representatives from the Knowledge Foundation (KK-stiftelsen) visited Karlstad University to gain deeper insight into how the university collaborates with industry in research and education.
