Once a year, the University of Stuttgart opens its laboratory doors. Exhibits, lectures, or hands-on experiments will be showcased. SFB 1313 participates with its mini exhibition "Pretty Porous - Alles Porös". Children and adults will be introduced in the world of porous media and have the possibility to understand them through exhibits and experiments. Join us at 25 May 2025 from 1 to 7 pm at the Pfaffenwaldring 47 on the Campus Vaihingen.
Mini Exhibition "Pretty Porous - Alles Porös"
What do sponges, sand, skin, plants and even asphalt have in common? They are all porous media. We find them almost everywhere in our everyday lives. Examine various porous media under the microscope and discover their physical properties in experiments. Visit our exhibition and experiment with us at four stations!
- What are porous media? Sample table with different porous media
- Porous Media under the microscope: examine porous structures
- Hands-on exhibit "Below the surface": an earthworm explains to us porous media processes
- Experiment: How fast does water flow through porous media?
