Reaction simulators and visualizations for arbitrary shapes and flows

Reaction-diffusion pattern from an aqueous Belousov-Zhabotinsky — Replying to @PhysRevLett Reaction simulators and visualizations for arbitrary shapes and flows Is this just a pretty picture or did they put a live tool online to let the 5.4 Billion humans using the Internet play with the reaction simulations and visualizations for arbitrary shapes and flows?

Controlling and shaping the near field to generate 2 meter or 20 meter long plasma channels

It should be possible to form that into a single beam. Thanks for sharing. Controlling and shaping the near field to generate 2 meter or 20 meter long plasma channels It would need an additional array of charge and voltage nodes, sensors and machine intelligence algorithm. I am just saying it should be possible. My

Find higher frequencies and flows for industrial applications of your methods

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.05.06.592707v1.full from https://x.com/RichardKCollin2/status/1838458035947090197 My Comments: Find higher frequencies and flows for industrial applications of your methods When I was at UT Austin and Ilya Prigogine and others were chipping away at chemical clocks, chemical oscillators, talking constantly about “systems far from equilibrium” (his Nobel Prize), it was always dissipative open systems fed by outside energy.

Broader view of nuclear energy applications by energy density

S3: The future of Nuclear = Small, Mobile, Microreactors, Radiant at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTgS7tOOzsE This reminds me of Elon Musk – low tech (graphite, heat, coolants, everyday materials) rather than fields and high energy density. At least the people are able to do those things now. Remote chemical processes can be economic with mostly heat, not electricity.

Pulse jets are periodic internal combustion engines with high frequencies – OpenAI needs to step up its game

MRP Ingenious: DIY Acetylene in DIY Pulse Jet at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoRvFLAn56g You had to make a diagram and measurements to be able to cut and assemble it. There are also mathematical models and computer algorithms to model and design engines like yours. It means knowing the pressures, densities, flow rates, temperatures, energies, reactions, ignition. Even if you

Field Propulsion is 3D Electromagnetic Force management with high frequencies and high sampling rates

Master Ivo: Field Propulsion, Explained with Working Proof at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVjC47NBqfM You are wasting a lot of time inventing theories that are well known and trying to learn quantities that are relatively easy to measure and calculate. Start by thinking what you want to do. I suggest you use magnetic levitation first. Forces on wires and magnets

Note to NIST about gold Au typos The Thermal Expansion of Pure Metals

Hello, I was looking at The Thermal Expansion of Pure Metals: Copper, Gold, Aluminum, Nickel, and Iron at https://materialsdata.nist.gov/handle/11256/32 It has a spreadsheet.  In the “Au data” sheet There is a temperature 38136.  I think that ought to be 381.36. The value for 157 centigrade, 37.3417?  Should it be 0.00373417? The value at 34.6 centigrade,

Twitter simulation of fluids stirred by pointed paddles

Physics Magazine @PhysicsMagazine 8h Simulation videos illustrate how changing different parameters of the system alters how well two fluids mix together when stirred. (For the stirrers, tadpole and teeth shapes are best).

Comment on Video Removing Heavy Wind Shake from FPV footage

Removing heavy wind shake from FPV footage at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDRJCyCKWfQ I have been collecting live video streams on the Internet for some time. I call the collection “shake wind”. Mainly beaches, bridges, mountains and places where the wind is fierce and the camera will often shake, sometimes violently. But the equation of motion of the camera is
