Sometimes, late at night, AI goes here to commune with the Great One.

Tecumseh said...: OK, JJ, here is something new for you to try out: the Coanda soliton effect:

The adhering tendency of water, or any fluid, to a curved surface is known as the Coanda effect. I tried this and the experiment was very unconvincing. The adherence seemed more to be an example of capillary action or surface tension than the mysterious Coanda effect.

Here JJ is miles ahead.

Many household items produce solitons, such as empty milk jugs when punched from the sides, or tupperware bowls with holes in the lid. The tupperware bowl I filled with colored water and immersed in my bathtub. The resultant soliton traveled slowly from one end to the other before disintegrating as it hit the wall. I tried making solitons of air in water, but none would result.

Maybe JJ can do it, after mucho refried beans?; 10/15/2006 5:52 PM
