Edström Per

Per Edström is a Professor at the Department of Engineering, Mathematics and Science Education (IMD) within Mid Sweden University. His research focuses on mathematical modeling of light scattering in paper and print, particularly addressing challenges in optical interactions and radiative transfer.

• Education: Doctoral thesis (2007) and Licentiate thesis (2004) on light scattering in paper, both from Mid Sweden University.

Research Interests: Edström’s work spans radiative transfer theory, fluorescence modeling, and computational methods for simulating optical properties in turbid media. He has developed advanced models like DORT2002 to improve accuracy in paper industry applications, focusing on phenomena such as dot gain, goniochromism, and edge effects in halftone printing.

Recent Publications: His studies (2013–2015) explore Monte Carlo simulations, particle dynamics, and high-speed nanofilm deposition, contributing to fields like optical measurement techniques and color prediction models.

Labs and Teams: Affiliated with the FSCN (Fibre Science and Communication Network) at Mid Sweden University, he collaborates on projects involving microroughness analysis, inverse radiative transfer problems, and open-source simulation platforms.
