Societies - 6th Feb 2012 20:30
Speaker: Prof John Lister

Anyone awake at breakfast-time can observe that a stream of honey falling onto toast from a little height buckles and coils on impact. This talk will describe the physics and mathematics of a falling viscous thread. Prediction of the coiling frequency is surprisingly complex. And what happens when you move the toast?

All talks will begin at 8.30pm with port and orange juice from 8.15pm.

Talks are for members only; non-members may join at the door. Membership is just £2.50 for life (Winstanley Lecture Theatre). TMS.
