NTU in Singapore gives extra power to WASP

The Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation is donating SEK 50 million to Nanyang Technological University. The donation will provide financing for 25 young researchers from all over the world to spend one year in Singapore and one year in Sweden.
Victor Fors

WASP doctoral student with a focus on safety

The many sensors with which cars are now fitted can be used to create active safety systems. In his licentiate thesis, Victor Fors examines how a car behaves when it is at the very limit of what it can achieve when avoiding a collision.
