Toward Better Physics Labs for Future Biologists
K. Moore, J. Giannini, W. Losert
We have developed a set of laboratories and hands on activities to accompany a new two-semester interdisciplinary physics course that has been successfully developed and tested in…
NEXUS/Physics: An interdisciplinary repurposing of physics for biologists
E. F. Redish, C. Bauer, K. L. Carleton +15
In response to increasing calls for the reform of the undergraduate science curriculum for life science majors and pre-medical students (Bio2010, Scientific Foundations for Future…
Numerical simulations of granular dynamics II. Particle dynamics in a shaken granular material
Naomi Murdoch, Patrick Michel, Derek C. Richardson +4
Surfaces of planets and small bodies of our Solar System are often covered by a layer of granular material that can range from a fine regolith to a gravel-like structure of varying…
Granular Dynamics during Impact
Kerstin Nordstrom, Emily Lim, Matthew Harrington +1
We study the impact of a projectile onto a bed of 3 mm grains immersed in an index-matched fluid. Specifically, we vary the amount of prestrain on the sample, strengthening the for…
Front Propagation of Spatio-temporal Chaos
J. W. Kim, J. Y. Vaishnav, E. Ott +2
We study the dynamics of the front separating a spatio-temporally chaotic region from a stable steady region using a simple model applicable to periodically forced systems. In part…
