AmperZand Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 According to an article in the Winter 2009 issue of Johns Hopkins Magazine (pages 16-17), chemical and biological engineers at the prestigious university are using Lego to model how nano-sized particles travel through liquids. Details of the resulting studies can be found in The Journal of Fluid Mechanics and Physical Review Letters. Cool, eh? Amps Quote
Big Cam Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 It'd be cooler with pictures of their build. When will the world learn that all the mysteries of the world can be answered by staring intol a LEGO brick. Quote
CP5670 Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 Do you have a link to the article or paper? That might be interesting to read. Quote
Sumendar Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 This one? (Includes pictures of the "build") http://releases.jhu.edu/2009/08/25/legos-h...a-chip-devices/ Quote
AmperZand Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 This one? (Includes pictures of the "build")http://releases.jhu.edu/2009/08/25/legos-h...a-chip-devices/ Yup, looks to be the one. The write-up is slightly different but the topic is the same. The 'build' is the same but there's only one pic in the hard copy version. Amps Quote
