At this seminar PhD students, postdocs and Master´s students in life sciences at UiO and NMBU heard inspirational talks from people who have made careers outside academia. And got advice on how to build their own careers.

LMI and partners welcome you to join this day with presentations and discussions from the Norwegian life science ecosystem and industry leaders from Global Pharma.

For boys in upper secondary schools.

"The Lapse of time" oratorio of excerpts from Charles Darwin "On the Origin of Species" composed by Bjørn Morten Christophersen will take place in Frogner kirke.

At the main event we discussed how to prepare for the next pandemic. What does it take to prevent a global pandemic? How should the authorities handle pandemics in the future? In what way can research and innovation contribute to preparedness and prevention of the next pandemic?

Njord Seminar with Salima Rafai (Université Grenoble Alpes): "Flowing Active Suspensions: plankton as a model active particle"

Hylleraas interdisciplinary seminar, hosted in Oslo

Abstract: Gravitational settling of a droplet in air onto a soft substrate is a ubiquitous event relevant to many natural processes and engineering applications. We study this phenomenon by developing a three-phase lubrication model of droplet settling onto a solid substrate coated by a thin, soft compressible layer of elastic material. By combining scaling analysis, analytical methods and numerical simulations we elucidate how the resulting droplet dynamics is affected by the soft layer. We discuss extensions to droplet settlings onto thin viscous liquid films and elastic sheets. Our results provide new insight into the coupled interactions between droplets and solids coated by a thin film of a soft material.

Talk can be followed online on Zoom as well as in person. Please contact "timokoch at uio.no" for the Zoom link. This talk is part of the Mechanics Lunch Seminar series. Bring-your-own-lunch and lots of questions.

Maintenance plays a crucial role in ships and especially in the vital electric propulsion system. Intelligent predictive maintenance idealistically aims at preventing system failures and minimizing needless repairs, i.e., predicting failure likelihood and time to failure while providing the crew explainable predictions and recommending the best action for timely intervention. This presentation will cover a relevant work in collaboration with Sensor Systems in BigInsight, particularly a paper published under https://doi.org/10.1109/TII.2022.3144177. The failure prediction approach is driven by event logs, which include warnings, alarms, and operational information that describe all the happenings onboard the ship. The failure prediction objective is turned into classification and regression tasks; however, the training data pose three challenges. The events are irregular textual messages. The training data samples are not labelled. The datasets are extremely imbalanced, due to sparse failure events and multiple failure modes. The problem is casted into a weakly supervised machine learning framework. In a multiple instance learning process, the ungiven data labels are learned recursively while fitting the model parameters using deterministic annealing. The overall approach was tested on real ship data, and it successively forecasted few propulsion failures with explainable causes.
