• #### Casimir force and its relation to surface tension ﻿

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
From energy considerations there is reason to expect that the work done by Casimir forces during a slow displacement of the parallel plates reflects the free energy of the surface tension of the adjacent surfaces. We show ...
• #### Casimir force between a half-space and a plate of finite thickness ﻿

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
Zero-frequency Casimir theory is analyzed from different viewpoints, with the aim of obtaining further insight into the delicate Drude-plasma issue that turns up when one considers thermal corrections to the Casimir force. ...
• #### Casimir friction between dense polarizable media ﻿

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
The present paper—a continuation of our recent series of papers on Casimir friction for a pair of particles at low relative particle velocity—extends the analysis, so as to include dense media. The situation becomes, in ...

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)

• #### Numerical Simulations of Flow Past a Truss Tower with an Evaluation of Tower Shadow Models for Wind Turbines ﻿

(Master thesis, 2011)
The performance of steady-state tower shadow models for a wind turbine truss tower have been evaluated. The Reynolds-Averaged-Navier-Stokes (RANS) approach, in conjunction with the $k-omega$ Shear-Stress-Transport (SST) ...
• #### Presence of negative entropies in Casimir interactions ﻿

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
Negative entropy in connection with the Casimir effect at uniform temperature is a phenomenon rooted in the circumstance that one is describing a nonclosed system, or only part of a closed system. In this paper we show ...
• #### Radiative corrections to van der Waals interaction in fluids ﻿

(Master thesis, 2012)
The van der Waals interaction energy is derived for a homogenous fluid of polarizable particles. Low-temperature corrections to the van der Waals interaction energy are computed numerically for three cases: Dilute media ...
• #### The reality of Casimir friction ﻿

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
For more than 35 years theorists have studied quantum or Casimir friction, which occurs when two smooth bodies move transversely to each other, experiencing a frictional dissipative force due to quantum electromagnetic ...
