Abstract

This artwork has a unique name, "Δt," which combines the Greek letter delta (Δ) representing a small increment in mathematics and physics, and the initial letter of "Thickness." This work :Δt-Sphere is part of the Δt series, and was born out of a study of the monement of living creatures. The principles of elasticity and pendulum is used by penetrating a piano wire through a stack of thin acrylic plates.

The theme of this artwork is "Floating Liquid Encased in a Sphere" Through the organic fluctuations originating from artificial objects, I aim to provide an opportunity for people to recognize that the relationship between nature and artificiality is not separate, but rather by designing physical phenomena at a microscopic level, we can seamlessly experience natural elements like liquid.

Participants can manipulate a sphere that sways in response to their hand movements, creating a sensation as if they were generating wind with the palm of their hands. Moreover, they can control the floating liquid within the sphere, which reflects LED lights, giving them an illusion of becoming a deity or a sorcerer.

In today's chaotic and unpredictable society, this work has the power to harmonize even complex events under a designed law through the power of combination of art and science. The man-made objects are the crystallization of human wisdom while the liquid, which is swaying like a wave as a metaphor of this artwork, is a source of all things. The "Δt-Sphere" is a work that gives interactivity to the beauty of the fusion and harmony of natural and man-made objects, and can give people a new perspective.

Creeping flow of micropolar fluid past a porous sphere

The creeping flow of incompressible micropolar fluid past a porous sphere with permeability k is studied assuming uniform flow far away from the body. The stream function is determined by matching the solutions of Stokes equations for the flow outside ...
Visualization of Turbulent Flow around a Sphere at Subcritical Reynolds Numbers

The shear layer evolution and turbulent structure of near-wake behind a sphere at Re=11,000 and 5,300 were investigated using a smoke-wire visualization method. A laminar flow separation was found to occur near the equator. The smooth laminar shear ...
Direct numerical simulation of free falling sphere in creeping flow

In the present study, direct numerical simulations (DNS) are performed on single and a swarm of particles settling under the action of gravity. The simulations have been carried out in the creeping flow range of Reynolds number from 0.01 to 1 for ...
