Capillarity and Archimedes’ Principle of Floatation
We consider some of the complications that arise in attempting to generalize a version of Archimedes’ principle of floatation to account for capillary effects. The main result provides a means to relate the floating position (depth in the liquid) of a symmetrically floating sphere in terms of readily observable geometric quantities. A similar result is obtained for an idealized case correspondi...
متن کاملArchimedes’ Principle for Brownian Liquid
We consider a family of hard core objects moving as independent Brownian motions confined to a vessel by reflection. These are subject to gravitational forces modeled by drifts. The stationary distribution for the process has many interesting implications, including an illustration of the Archimedes’ principle. The analysis rests on constructing reflecting Brownian motion with drift in a genera...
متن کاملDevelopment of Aluminum Foams by Different Methods and Evaluation of its Density by Archimedes Principle
-Methods for producing metal foams are many, but obtaining repeatability in the properties is very difficult. The main challenge posed by the metal foam is that obtaining homogeneous porosity. Although lot of problems involved in the development of metal foams, research people are attracted to the metal foams because of its attractive properties like acoustic damping, bomb mitigation, light wei...
متن کاملHumanoid infers Archimedes' principle: understanding physical relations and object affordances through cumulative learning experiences
Emerging studies indicate that several species such as corvids, apes and children solve 'The Crow and the Pitcher' task (from Aesop's Fables) in diverse conditions. Hidden beneath this fascinating paradigm is a fundamental question: by cumulatively interacting with different objects, how can an agent abstract the underlying cause-effect relations to predict and creatively exploit potential affo...
متن کاملCapillarity and dynamic wetting
In this thesis capillary dominated two–phase flow is studied by means of numerical simulations and experiments. The theoretical basis for the simulations consists of a phase field model, which is derived from the system’s thermodynamics, and coupled with the Navier Stokes equations. Two types of interfacial flow are investigated, droplet dynamics in a bifurcating channel and spontaneous capilla...
