Organisations
Theoretical Physics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The Main research subjects are: 1. Aspects of non-lineair dynamics: - integrability and chaos - Direct methods for the investigation of integrable and nearly integrable systems; - Analysis of integrable hierarchies and their reductions; - Spectral decomposition of chaotic maps, perturbations of integrable maps involving transition to chaos. 2. Elementary particle physics beyond the standard model: from supersymmetry to strings - Study of ...
Ecology and Systematics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
AMPHIBIAN EVOLUTION LAB (Prof. Franky Bossuyt) http://www.amphibia.be ABSTRACT: Research centers around the use of molecular phylogenetics to elucidate evolutionary patterns, and the processes that produce them, in amphibians. We are trying to understand the relationship between tempo and mode of evolution in relation to biogeography, speciation and morphological diversification. Our research also integrates this phylogenetic background with ...
Hydraulics Section KU Leuven
The Hydraulics Section of KU Leuven is active in the following three domains: (1) urban and river hydrology and hydraulics (prof. Patrick Willems), (2) coastal and estuarine hydrodynamics (prof. Jaak Monbaliu), and (3) sediment mechanics (prof. Erik Toorman). Research priorities are:
Urban and river hydrology and hydraulics. Key words: river hydrological and hydraulic modelling, urban drainage, hydrological extremes (floods, ...
Flanders Hydraulics Flanders Hydraulics
For more than 85 years, Flanders Hydraulics (FH) has been a centre of expertise for research and advice on hydraulic, nautical, sediment-related and hydrological topics. As a scientific institute and technical support service, we are a division of the department of Mobility and Public Works of the Government of Flanders. Flanders Hydraulics Research supports the preparation and execution of the policy of the Government of Flanders by ...
Hypertension and Cardiovascular Epidemiology KU Leuven
The Research Unit Hypertension and Cardiovascular Epidemiology (HCVE) coordinated influential clinical trials, published in top-ranking journals, such as the Systolic Hypertension in Europe Trial (Syst-Eur), the Ambulatory blood Pressure monitoring and Treatment of Hypertension trial (APTH) and the Treatment of hypertension based on Home or Office blood Pressure trial (THOP). HCVE led the Data Safety and Monitoring Board of large clinical ...

Applied Mechanics and Energy Conversion Section KU Leuven
The Applied Mechanics and Energy Conversion Section also contains the Centre for Nuclear Engineering.
The research activities of the group are situated in the following areas : - Simulation of thermal industrial processes and systems - Heat pumps : design and applications. - Heat transfer : boiling and condensation, augmentation techniques, measurement techniques. - Heat exchangers optimization : compact gas-gas heat exchangers, air ...
Applied mathematics University of Antwerp
Applied Physics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
We are a group of enthusiastic multidisciplinary young researchers from both the Departments of Applied Physics and Photonics (TONA) and Physics (DNTK). We use experimental and theoretical methods (nonlinear dynamics, stochastic processes, complex systems, electromagnetism, general relativity, etc.) to tackle and answer some fundamental challenges about nonlinear, complex and time-evolving systems. This combination allows an imaginative and ...
