I am interested in applications of SMP in electronics and mechanical/aerospace applications. I have read one paper on optical shock waves in silica aerogels from the University of Rome. I thought it was really neat and would like to find more things like that. However, I am also eager on just...

Hello, I started out with wikipedia, but have then been looking at university soft matter research groups and other material. WIthin those links I have skimmed through some of their publications. Here are a few links: https://www.ph.ed.ac.uk/icmcs/research-themes/soft-matter-physics...

Hi all, I am trying to learn more about this field. Whether you work or have worked in this area or not, I would like to know where Soft Matter is going in terms of theory and applications. Thanks, A.D. *I apologize in advance if there are already many threads specifically addressing this...

Hello All, I am currently a junior in physics and have set sights on Materials Science (Electronic Materials/Nanotechnology) for grad school. My school does not offer MS.Eng as a degree and so the only Materials Science course I can enroll in as the general "Introduction to Materials Science...

Well I apologize, but you did not seem quite interested in giving advice in the first place. You are telling me to do every problem without specifying where these problems are coming from. Some intro books have hundreds of problems per chapter, while an AP review book might have like 20. If...

"All of them", does this mean do the 120 problems found at the end of each chapter in your typical heavy intro physics textbook? Explain what you mean here. I would prefer you answer the question and not get philosophical here. Otherwise, save your time and do not answer it at all.

Hello, I will take Classical Mechanics I (upper division) course fall of 2017. I have not seen Mechanics material since fall of 2014 and would like suggestions on how to review the concepts prior to taking the class. I was pretty good in that class and do not need to "re-learn" anything per...

Hello, I know this general question has been asked a million times, and I certainly would not want to be lumped in with those who troll and ask if anything can be faster than c. However, I have narrowed it down to being one relevant to my institution. I will be transferring to the Illinois...

I have been hovering over this forum for about a year now. I am very excited on becoming part of this community and hope that as I become more knowledgeable, I can help others out as well.
