Welcome to my homepage. The main reason for having this page is to help friends and colleagues keep track of my whereabouts and my research activities. Welcome to look around!
I currently live in Grenoble (since January 2001), but I will probably move back to Sweden in the spring. Job offers are most welcome... ;)

Research activities
Starting in 1996 with my thesis, my main area of research has been the numerical modeling of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows, and in particular the development of accurate one-point models for MHD turbulence. See the separate page on my research for an overview of these activities and a bibliography.
My current work at CEA is
an interesting side-line which
concerns the development of simulation tools to support the development
of future gas-cooled high-temperature nuclear reactors
("Generation 4").
