[2016-5-28. : 4:49 am] TiKels -- There are things to be done, but to say that there a LOT? Ehhh. Now if you want big fields... 3d printing, artificial intelligence, drones[2016-5-28. : 4:49 am] Corbo -- And just imagine what we could do if we could ever tap into the quantum state or atoms. Imagine being the first to develop a quatum material of some sort.[2016-5-28. : 4:48 am] Corbo -- like, carbon nano tubes are a fairly old thing and as of yet most of its uses are mainly just theories. People don't understand them and they're like what, 50 years old? ;o[2016-5-28. : 4:48 am] TiKels -- CorboCorbo shouted: TiKels That's exactly the point. You'd think most has been done but just because there hasn't been any breakthroughs or anything new these days doesn't mean that the "ultimate" material has been done and is just being improved. you could argue that about any mature field[2016-5-28. : 4:47 am] Corbo -- TiKelsTiKels shouted: 45 years later ... most of it has been done. Now theres justhe research in trying to improve what's already been done That's exactly the point. You'd think most has been done but just because there hasn't been any breakthroughs or anything new these days doesn't mean that the "ultimate" material has been done and is just being improved.[2016-5-28. : 4:46 am] TiKels -- 45 years later ... most of it has been done. Now theres justhe research in trying to improve what's already been done[2016-5-28. : 4:44 am] Corbo -- TiKelsTiKels shouted: Materials has already really gone past its prime What does this mean? I don't understand the phrase and cannot really translate it.[2016-5-28. : 4:43 am] Corbo -- I see these peoplemaking all sort of fun stuff like aerogel, flexible solar cells, color changing concrete when exposed to certain variables, I mean, how do you even do that?[2016-5-28. : 4:42 am] Corbo -- Design of materials. I think part of the future is in how far can we advance materials. I mainly want to develop a crazy efficient solar cell[2016-5-28. : 4:41 am] Corbo -- like, really, if I do my PhD, that's one of the things I want to consider doctoring in.[2016-5-28. : 4:40 am] TiKels -- https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_composite_materials_(engineering)[2016-5-28. : 4:40 am] Corbo -- I don't know the math stuff but yeah, I do get how they work and mainly how light interacts with them so I can get better 3d renderings [2016-5-28. : 4:39 am] Corbo -- oh, I know about anisotropic materials. But only because of rendering [2016-5-28. : 4:38 am] TiKels -- So like the first layer they all are 90 degrees, next LAyer is 180 degrees[2016-5-28. : 4:38 am] Corbo -- http://www.aos.wisc.edu/~dvimont/aos575/Handouts/Chapter2.pdf the fuck[2016-5-28. : 4:37 am] Corbo -- TiKelsTiKels shouted: Corbo did you ever do any composites analysis? Don't know what that is. Might be called different in spanish, though.[2016-5-28. : 4:36 am] Corbo -- I'll just assume that's a semi circle (the drawing is probably poor) so that's just a rectangle which you substract a semi circle.[2016-5-28. : 4:36 am] Corbo -- Like, I see there's an oval, which you have to substract a huge part of a triangle(not all) minus one full triangle at the bottom which you can calculate ez.[2016-5-28. : 4:33 am] Corbo -- TiKelsTiKels shouted: My professor gave us obscure shapes and made us calculate moments of inertia every time I remember calculating centroids for shapes like this: http://walkytalky.net/extern/hull.png[2016-5-28. : 4:30 am] Corbo -- BeatMeistroBeatMeistro shouted: Hey,Corbo. Sorry, Hi! I got too engaged in this conversation [2016-5-28. : 4:29 am] Corbo -- I mean, common, that beam could have been solved in minutes with an structural modeling software [2016-5-28. : 4:29 am] Corbo -- TiKelsTiKels shouted: If the test covers so much information that it couldn't be memorized ... you're in for a treat This. but this pretty much means that they don't expect you to memorize it all, so that's cool.[2016-5-28. : 4:28 am] Corbo -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: schrödinger loads, is that a real thing or is that a joke? xD It was a joke xD the loads were both dead and alive xD[2016-5-28. : 4:28 am] TiKels -- If the test covers so much information that it couldn't be memorized ... you're in for a treat[2016-5-28. : 4:28 am] Corbo -- TiKelsTiKels shouted: Open note tests are almost always really tough This[2016-5-28. : 4:27 am] Corbo -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: D: that makes me afraid of open-note tests, since I'm usually lacking in notes you should ALWAYS be afraid of them.[2016-5-28. : 4:27 am] TiKels -- He didn't tell you what to bring either. So a fair number of people were bLind sided[2016-5-28. : 4:27 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- D: that makes me afraid of open-note tests, since I'm usually lacking in notes[2016-5-28. : 4:27 am] Corbo -- TiKelsTiKels shouted: Haha I had a professor give an open note test. He expected us to bring in charts from like ten homeworks ago. If you didn't have them... you couldn't do the problem hahahaha This was precisely that. He told us to bring "our book" for the final.[2016-5-28. : 4:26 am] TiKels -- Haha I had a professor give an open note test. He expected us to bring in charts from like ten homeworks ago. If you didn't have them... you couldn't do the problem hahahaha[2016-5-28. : 4:26 am] Corbo -- Now that I think about it he was a real asshole. He just said it was an office building, we had to consider everything ourselves...[2016-5-28. : 4:25 am] Corbo -- like, you usually expect them to give you at least some of the variables, but no thank you! bulding stores paper? WELL IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH PAPER WEIGHTS TOO BAD.[2016-5-28. : 4:25 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- like it totally sounds like something that would be real[2016-5-28. : 4:24 am] TiKels -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: schrödinger loads, is that a real thing or is that a joke? xD Sometimes.[2016-5-28. : 4:24 am] Corbo -- basically the whole thing was one variable which you could only get via solving like a million more of them ;o[2016-5-28. : 4:24 am] TiKels -- My professor gave us obscure shapes and made us calculate moments of inertia every time |
