Mathematics for Life

KTH researchers are developing advanced computer simulations that may help decrease the number of experiments on animals and at the same time reduce environmental protection.
“Simulation can already reduce the need to produce industrial prototypes,” says Johan Hoffman, professor of numerical analysis at KTH. “And computer simulation may soon be used as decision support for certain medical procedures.”

A Range Tracker for Electric Cars

A major shortcoming of electric cars is drivers’ uncertainty over how far the vehicle can be driven before the battery dies, a phenomenon known as “range anxiety.” But a new Web-based tool developed by KTH researchers promises to show just how far an electric car can go before the charge runs out.
