Biography

Gustav has been at KAUST since 2016 and is so one of the veteran members of Professor Johansson's team. He is originally from Sweden where he developed a sense of always improving whatever he puts his hands on. The area of IC engines research is therefore well suited for Gustav with many challenges and areas of development. In his spare time, Gustav enjoys exercising and sports since he used to be a competitive swimmer, but he is sure that you would beat him at swimming today. For the future, Gustav is open for any possibilities to learn and develop with a planned graduation in 2020​

Research Interests

Current research: High-efficiency ICE concepts through the Double Compression Expansion Engine
