M Project: OceanCleanup
Plastic pollution is a major threat to our planet with severe effects on marine and freshwater ecosystems. In 2020, around 30 million tons of plastic entered aquatic ecosystems and it is expected that this number rises to over 50 million tons per year by 2030. In collaboration with The Ocean Cleanup (TM) and Maritime Research Institute Netherlands | MARIN, we are studying the fundamental fluid physics of ocean plastics with odd shapes to improve the current experimental and theoretical tools available for capturing plastics in the ocean and rivers.

M Project: 3D Printing
3D printing has proven to be a game-changer in space exploration and has revolutionized the way astronauts and space agencies approach problems in space. With 3D printing, it is possible to produce complex components and parts on demand, reducing the need for large inventories and saving space and weight on spacecraft. It also enables the production of spare parts, tools, and replacement parts on-demand, reducing the need for expensive and time-consuming resupply missions. Moreover, 3D printing enables the creation of custom-fit components that are optimized for the specific conditions of space, such as temperature fluctuations, vacuum, and radiation.

M Project: Bioluminescence
Bioluminescence is the ability of living organisms to produce light as a defence or communication mechanism. Some single-celled algae flash light if they are exposed to fluid flow. If the environmental conditions are right, the algae-populations grow exponentially and breaking waves at the coast can cause the organisms to flash light. We have recently discovered the mechanism of light production due to mechanical forces and are currently working on the detail of fluid flow excitation that results in the light production.

M Project: Life in Complex Fluids
Single cellular organisms like Algae or Bacteria and animals like C. Elegans can swim and crawl in order to explore their environment. But as they are commonly found in heterogeneous and complex environments like mud, puddles or the porous sea-floor, they developed techniques to propel themselves through these environments. Nonetheless, the physics of swimming in such complex environments is not clear yet.

M Project: Algal Bloom
Algal or Cyanobacterial Blooms refer to a rapid increase of the population of algae in fresh water or ocean. In many cases the algae are toxic, hence disturbing the drinking water reservoire. Cyanobacterial blooms are increasingly treat to water systems in the Netherlands and worldwide. In collaboration with a team of ecologists at UvA, we are currently working on new technologies to mitigate cyanobacterial blooms.

M Project: Physics of Volcanoes
Lava flows from the volcanic eruptions constantly threaten the residents and the infrastructure around the world. The recent activities in Indonesia, Italy, Iceland, and Hawaii highlight the importance of hazard mitigation when the volume of lava is excessive. The physics of lava flow is complicated due to the nonlinear material properties of lava, the complex surface structures, and the heterogeneous temperature distribution. Such features have limited our understanding of the underlying physics of lava flow. Consequently, our attempts to divert lava flows have mostly been unsuccessful.

M Project: The Game of Knots
Our recent experimental observations show motion of subcellular structures (also called atom or specie in different contexts) that avoid certain regions of the cell and also some parts of the cell wall. We hence developed a new theoretical framework to explain such behviours. We have made successful models for 1 specie (atom or structure) systems in 2D and now aim to develop this unique model to n-species in 3D.

M Project: Ice sheets
Climate change is affecting our planet in numerous ways. One of the most noticeable impacts is the melting of ice caps and glaciers, leading to the breaking of icebergs. This phenomenon is particularly evident in the polar regions, where temperatures have risen significantly, causing the ice to melt at an alarming rate. The breakage of icebergs contributes to the rise in sea levels, which can have severe consequences for coastal communities and low-lying islands. It also affects marine ecosystems, altering migration patterns of animals, and disrupting the food chain.

M Project: 3D Printed Marangoni Boats
Active Matter refers to a class of physical systems made up of self-propelled, interacting entities, such as living organisms or synthetic particles, that exhibit collective behavior and can produce forces and fluxes at the macroscopic scale. Active matter systems can generate directed motion, spontaneous pattern formation, and display emergent properties that are not present in passive physical systems. Research in this area is interdisciplinary, drawing on physics, chemistry, biology, and engineering, with applications ranging from the design of new materials and technologies to the understanding of biological systems and living matter. Understanding the behavior of active matter is a fundamental challenge in the natural sciences, and its study has the potential to lead to new insights and technologies in a variety of fields.

M Project: population dynamics
Algal bloom refers to sudden growth of toxic algae in water systems. Due to climate change, algal bloom became one of the biggest threats to our inland water systems in the past few years. A major problem on our way to combat algal bloom is to predict when it happens. Here we aim to make a computational tool to study bloom of algae in chaotic flows. Algal bloom in the Baltic sea (esa satellite image). Inset: An example of our computational work on growth of algae inside a small computational domain.

M Project: Robo Glasses
Can we use robots to study biological materials like tissues? We think we can! We are developing experimental and computational platforms to study the dense population of moving cells using robots. To this end, we program the robots about the size of a 2-Euro coin to move like cells. We then explore how robots move when they are densely packed. Analysing the trajectory data, from these experiments, we then make computational models to explore different conditions/parameters, which are hard to explore experimentally.

M Project: VP emulsion
Many industries and technological developments benefit by designing new materials to optimized performances and save energy. For instance, cosmetic or food industries significantly benefit from materials that have engineered mechanical properties. Designing material in the lab is however expensive and require many steps. Here we aim to use computational fluid dynamics to explore emergent behaviour of materials with complex properties. We will particularly focus on materials that have elastic and plastic properties (materials like toothpaste, or whipped cream!).

M Project: Plants
When plant face different light conditions they have to adapt, sometimes the light is too strong and they get a “sun burn” which destroys the biochemical machinery for photosynthesis. If the light is too weak they “starve” because photosynthesis does not work well. Plants seem like very calm organisms, but if you zoom into their leaves (Figure b,c) there is a lot happening! Chloroplasts, the photosynthetic organelles inside plant cells (Fig c) can actively move by consuming chemical energy. This so-called active matter can locally break energy conservation and therefore gives rise to astonishing new physics far from equilibrium. Additionally, chloroplasts move thought a complex fluctuating “living” environment and might impede themselves due to their dense packing.

M Project: Billiards
Mathematical Billiards are the simplest form of dynamical systems. They consist of particles that move on a straight line with a constant velocity. Despite being so simple in fundamental laws, they pose some of the most challenging open problems in classical and modern physics and mathematics. Inspired by experimental observation, we have recently made a new type of mathematical billiards in which the particle has memory: it remembers where it was before and react to that “spatial memory”. This opened many new open problems for us which we would like to explore in the future.
