We love interactions, in particular with particles

Admittedly, it’s a crappy first version, but it works.
The strangely satisfying dynamics of a rotating sphere floating on a thin layer of water. Can you estimate the pressure needed to lift the sphere? See also here.

And Kalman Migler is a pleasant person to talk to :).

The first WUR course in Solidworks is set up!

First try worked already. Probing the interaction between substrate curvature and instabilities in thin films. On a flat plane, a hole in a fluid collapses symmetrically, but on cylinder the front is unstable. What about the intermediate case?

In summer 2015 we made an effort to make instructional videos for our freshman General Chemistry lab classes. Other teachers also wanted to hear about how to do this!

Long story short: extracting power law exponents from even very clean numerical data is hard, but there are some good tricks around :). Do check the erratum that fixes a small, strange but possibly very confusing typo that crept in…

Not quite accurate enough for a plate, but the solvent trap works.
