Climate is changing, and this will affect future energy systems based on solar and wind. But how? A new research project at Aarhus University will focus on this with a Sapere Aude grant from Independent Research Fund Denmark.

Can changes in the tiniest branches of our cardiovascular system help doctors detect and prevent a number of diseases decades before they become serious?

AU Engineering is launching three new, cross-disciplinary and data-driven research projects funded by the Villum Foundation. Among other things, the new projects will help to limit the effects of environmental disasters and improve our understanding of how cells react to mechanobiological influences.

Members of the Danish business community came in large numbers to meet engineering students at Aarhus University.

A new research project at Aarhus University will explore the possibilities of developing a financially efficient green production bubble, in which the energy used is greener than the national average. The project will also make it easier for companies to buy electricity at the right times.

Every year in August, in collaboration with two major players in the wind industry, Vestas and Siemens Gamesa, Aarhus University brings together a team of talented engineering students at an international summer school on wind energy. The aim is to attract talent to the Danish energy sector. And it is urgent.

The biggest day of the year has dawned for hundreds of new engineering students starting the first day on their new degree programmes at Aarhus University. “It’s a landmark day on which it’s crucial to remember the key role of student advisers," says the director of studies.

Associate Professor Marta Victoria from the Department of Mechanical and Production Engineering has received the prestigious IEEE Stuart R. Wenham Young Professional Award for her important research into energy modelling and photovoltaic systems.

Turbulent flows play an important role in many engineering systems, but high computational costs still make it virtually impossible to simulate these flows accurately for complex cases like wind farms. A new project aims to solve this problem by developing a new approach to turbulence modelling.

1.5 degrees, 2 degrees or more? The Paris Agreement and the climate ambition of a carbon-neutral EU in 2050 have been put back by the war in Ukraine. Or have they? New research from Aarhus University shows that the very high gas prices currently experienced by the Eurozone are a very efficient driver for the green transition.
