I received my Ph.D on the area of Atom, Molecule and Laser Physics from the University of Helsinki, in 1997. I worked as a teaching assistant and as a researcher in Quantum Optics group where my main intrest was how to control molecules using ultra short laser pulses.
I joined NRC in 1997. I have led projects in the area of acoustics developing simulation methods in collaboration with Research Institutes and Universities. My multi scale acoustics simulation tasks have included a hybrid method for car acoustics to optimize multi microphone beamforming, Head Related Transfer Function simulations for 3d audio with Ultra Weak Variational Formulation method and coupled linearized Navier-Stokes FEM and Helmholtz Multilevel Fast Multipole BEM for predicting the full acoustics chain for mobile phones.
Recently, as a research manager of the Predictive Engineering group in Mechanics and Integration competence area in Multi Media Technologly laboratory, I have coordinated the research on Multidisciplinary design to enable optimal structural, thermal, acoustical and chemical performance of future Nokia devices.
Presently I am leading a Nanosystems team working on new computation methods using nanocomponents, functional materials and carbon based nanomaterials.
