    When I calculate the Y values with my model and then put them in a data set for the chart, i just have some theoretical points that correspond to the experimental points, i don't have a theoretical line. If i choose for the chart to plot the theoretical dataset as a line and not as points it just connects the theoretical points with straight lines instead of plotting my function with my calculated constants. I can get around it by calculating points for very small steps of the x value so there are many small straight lines that emulate a curve but it takes a lot of time and I feel that there is another way for the line to just represent the equation. Any solutions? Thanks to everyone that read this. *ps I'm using Libre Office Calc and not Excel but I do not think it really matters

    Not necessarily. It's the number of items in a mall. You could have Avogadro's number of eggs instead of a dozen eggs or any other unit. So if you are talking about Atoms then it is Atoms per mole, if you're talking about molecules then it is molecules per mole etc

Work which I don't think I would have become qualified for if not for my skills with python, which I learned from you. Thank you once again professor. I've been working on PHAs at Centre of Excellence for Biopolymers, Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai, India. We are sponsored by Praj Industries, they are really big into bioethanol. You can check them out, they even got a whole facility dedicated to Biopolymers called Praj Matrix. Cool stuff.

    Man, I find this 10x more difficult than any other class I've taken. I thought calculus, Thermodynamics, Dynamics, Deform, Fluids, whatever, was pretty easy because If you understand the first principle relationships, you don't have to remember anything... I either just understand so well that it's so obvious that I would never 'remember' or derive it myself, when needed, through first principles. There's just so much information here. I wouldn't even know how to prepare for an exam in this class. Like here's a million ways a defect can happen; if I pull it out of a hat be prepared to tell me about it? Do you have any tips to really imbibe all of this?

    I’m a dental student and we are studying about the material science to know how prosthetics and orthodontic appliances work! Your video was absolutely brilliant and easy to understand thank you 🙏 I have a question will there be a phase where there is recrystallization with no change in strength and hardness? As in my slides it’s mentioned in the hot-working metals there won’t be change in the hardness unlike the cold-working (increase in hardness and decrease in ductility).

  • @TaylorSparks

    I think if the material undergoes recrystallization you will always see a pretty dramatic change in strength and hardness as well as ductility.

    I dont get why do we have nucleus after r star although delta g is positive? Shouldn't Delta G be negative for the nucleus to be stable?

  • @TaylorSparks
    @TaylorSparksАй бұрын

    Good question! It is positive, but shrinking makes it more positive whereas growing makes it more negative. So if it's going to do one or the other it's going to continue to grow because that will lower its energy. In other words, just above r star, it is metastable and it has to change, the only question is whether it will change by shrinking or growing.
