Experts from Poland and Norway are collecting and analysing information that will help understand how people travel around cities. The conclusions will be used to define actions that would promote a wider use of environmentally-friendly means of transport. The work is performed by a team from the WUT Faculty of Mathematics and Information Science, headed by Professor Maciej Grzenda.

Researchers from the Faculty of Physics of the Warsaw University of Technology and Białystok University, thanks to their cooperation with Japanese and Dutch scientists, have proposed a novel method of recording 3D holographic images. The results of their work were published in „Nature Communications”.

Teodor Sawicki and Katarzyna Połczyńska from the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering and the Power Engineering Student Research Group have developed a project of a microgrid powered only with renewable energy sources. Such a solution could provide energy self-sufficiency for buildings and even for cities. 

Work on materials important for energy storage and conversion has become particularly important in recent times. This has been influenced by the changes and challenges facing the modern world.
