Twisted elastic filament pairs are often used in windup toys and are proposed as functional soft batteries. In a new preprint https://t.co/aE3foYqveV with Julien Chopin at UFBA and postdoc Animesh Biswas, we discuss the energy stored as a function of twist.
Richard Feynman was a brilliant physicist best known for his exceptional contributions to quantum mechanics and his captivating teaching style, among others.
Here are all of Feynman's Freely available Lectures at one place.
A Thread 🧵
Some people mistakenly claim that I have superpowers.
Like stopping people from killing each other, or something.
Then they accuse me of moral bankruptcy for not using those superpowers.
Twitter is such a strange place!
"MARANGONI", notre nouveau projet, ce sont 6 expériences incroyables autour des bulles, du savon et des gouttes. Des vidéos magiques, des illustrations scientifiques au top, le tout est à découvrir, partager et réutiliser sans modération ici : https://t.co/Xu5gkNYpOJ
Elastic sheets self-assemble into delicate multilayered scrolled yarns under extreme twist. Our recent paper explains the science behind it through an elasto-geometric torque model, stretched Schläfli origami and helical wrapping! @KudrolliLab, @ufba. https://t.co/TW2RyQkOQs
Les quatre scénarios de l’@ademe résumés dans cette infographie. Énorme travail réalisé pour exposer les choix qui s’offrent (encore) à nos sociétés (et pas qu’aux individus) et leurs conséquences.

Vous pensez que la démarche d’investigation est la meilleure méthode d’enseignement des sciences ?
Ce n’est pourtant pas ce que montre la littérature scientifique.

RT appreciated!
We are looking to hire a new graduate student to work on a cool project funding by @BDevelopm involving clogging and water resources in collaboration with a colleague @TechnionLive. Feel free to contact me for more information! @UCSBengineering
the dumbest way to solve a maze? simulate a gas of thousands of particles diffusing from the start point, until one particle reaches the exit. trace back the winning particle
