PROFESSOR DAVID SVINTRADZE TO DELIVER A COLLOQUIA TALK AT UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS
Professor David Svintradze is invited to the University of Massachusetts Lowell Physics Department to deliver a colloquia talk titled “Moving Manifolds and Young-Laplace, Kelvin, Gibbs-Thomson Problems”.
The talk is about resolving well-known and long-standing problems in colloidal and surface sciences. For example, the Young-Laplace law describes the amazing shape of sitting water drops, the Kelvin equation explains the beauty of cloud formation and the Gibbs-Thomson effect predicts a change of temperature for differently curved objects. More than a century-long problem is to generalize these three laws so that it explains the formation of all possible shapes, such as for instance: beautiful flowers, amazing cheetah, or all the different faces of human beings we routinely experience in everyday life.
The colloquium is scheduled for 4-5 pm MA time at the Kenedy College of Sciences, live streaming Zoom link will be provided upon request.
