Immersing myself into #physics , where do I start? Why #textbooks start with #mechanics and #kinematics ? What should I read starting from #scratch ?

I am looking forward to COMPLAS 23 in Barcelona, Spain, tomorrow.

Excited for 15 Plenary Lectures, 37 Invited Sessions, and 515 oral presentations about computational mechanics.

In 1805, Oliver Evans invented the first amphibious self-powered vehicle to dredge the Philadelphia harbor. #Poetry #Science #History #Mechanics #OruktorAmphibolos #Evans (https://sharpgiving.com/thebookofscience/items/p1805b.html)

Hey, exciting news about quad/hex-meshing: Easily ceate planar quad meshes between two line meshes by interpolation. Same applies for hex meshes between two quad meshes. Will be included in the upcoming release 7.7.0 of FElupe on PyPI!

So that can't be good.

#MotionAmplification is pretty damn incredible technology. Every pixel on the camera becomes a vibration sensor, and camera software can “amplify” motion to visualize potentially damaging/dangerous motion in complicated systems!

So apparently in #orbit #mechanics (both large and #quantum #physics) there are the obvious conservation laws of energy and angular momentum, but also a conservation of the Hermann-Bernoulli-Laplace-Hamilton-Runge-Lenz #vector (I'm not even joking about that name, although Laplace-Runge-Lenz aka LRL is more common).

I'm not sure if this will help the problem I'm working on, but it'll be fun trying to find out.

Any experienced #mechanic here that has worked on cars from areas with lots of snow? Im looking for some advice. #cars #mechanics

Today I implemented the #door #mechanics for the #underground area... #ausbruch #playdate #1bitcolor #1bit

I should probably ask this on a specialized forum such as mechanical stackexchange or sth, but you know, #lazyweb.

What is the reason some cars keep the radiator fan (or even turn it on) after the engine stops? It's gonna cool down eventually and it seems counter intuitive to quickly cool anything mechanical (differential temps/contraction/expansion and the likes).

Idea Number G-63342-04 to become a millionaire: sell tires with reduced thread depth, for those who wish to replace a single tire but keep all four tires wear-balanced.
