      Think about the spin of each ring. See the mushroom cloud effect at the start? The centers of the ring are moving outward faster than the outside and creating a backspin. When they collide, even as the low pressure pulls material together, both rings are still spinning opposite each other and because of the magnus effect(if I'm thinking of the correct effect), they create a forward, or outward away from the main ring, pull. I can't articulate it very well because I'm just not smart enough, but think of a basketball's backspin, and how it creates a forward pull that lengthens a shot.

      Maybe there is a direct collision between an area in the low pressure zone and in the ink or the space between that causes the smaller rings to be at a 90 degree turn.

    • @collinjenkins4651
      @collinjenkins4651 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Could the reason for the 90 degree turn be due to the low pressure zone pulling material to itself then the momentum carried from the movement colliding with the material from the opposing side create a backspin and then create a new vortex

    • @russellwile5694
      @russellwile5694 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I dont think there is an actual 90° turn. Looks like many smaller collisions similar to the first. Like fractals. Id love to see this done in a place with 0 resistance if it were possible.

      @@Chris.Davies If the current camera and media demands remain the same, that may be true for certain applications. But I think in 30 years, we'll be regularly recording immersive VR experiences instead of just 2D viewing. I see in 30 years (or around then) vlogs will be immersive and participatory, and movies will allow you to enter into the storyline and observe the characters side by side (or be one). We do have that to some extent with video games, but in 30 years I think VR will encompass video games, movies, online media, news, everything. I think anything media related will be participatory and interactive from a virtual reality standpoint. The camera's wouldn't just be 360 capture...they'd be able to map out 3D space and reproduce any environment for us to walk through, or fly, or shoot zombies, or have a virtual significant other that makes you happier than any real person you've ever met. "Hey, you talking to me?" "Nah, I'm just having a conversation in the Matrix."
      Of course that's assuming we don't blow ourselves up first.

    We used a computer controlled cylinder to pump fluid behind a rubber membrane to fire toroidal vortices out of the vortex cannons.
    We fixed one of the vortex cannon in a stationary position, and used a multi-axis microscope stage to align a second cannon to it… which sounds incredibly easy, until you realize that
    DYE density was an experiment all on its own.
    If the density of the dye mix was lighter than water, the vortex would go up.
    If the dye was more dense than water the vortex would fall.
    We had to overcome SO MANY VARIABLES and we basically spent about 4 hours figuring each variable.
    Water/dye temperature differential
    Water turbulence
    Water turbidity (cloudiness or haziness of a fluid)
    How to reset the aquarium
    Cannon Spacing
    Cannon Nozzle
    Cannon Shape
    Dye homogeneity in the vortex itself
    The piston displacement volume
    The piston stroke speed
    Rubber diaphragm tension, would make one side fire faster than the other.
    Water or air to drive diaphram?
    Firing speed (too slow and they drift, too fast and turbulence tears apart secondaries)
    We did a complete redesign of the cannon 3 different times.
    The Dye loading method was changed several times
    At times We tried to maintain negative pressure on the cannon chamber… we also tried to put shutters on the front of the muzzle. Ultimately I decided it was ok to live with dye dripping out of the front.
    We had to premix the dyes and eventually we got there.
    It got to the point where we didn’t even really know what success looked like and always thought we were there.

      Chris Heichel In my research, it was thermoelastic instabiliy. Friction causes temperature rise, which causes thermal expansion, which localizes heating to a narrow band. The higher the rotational speed, the greater the instability and the quicker the hot spots form. We even found that a plain paper ring could form hot spots on steel (blue oxide color) in about 0.7 seconds without even discoloring the paper!

      Since the pressure differential inside and outside the ring would be consiastent around the whole ring, the ring being symmetrical, then it seems feesible that the collapse would break into the lowest possible whole number larger than one, at intervals informed by the dimensions and momentum of the fluid. The rings in the video I mean.

    Passion is what really motivates people and it's real.

    If Pythagoras were alive today, he'd be asking 2 very obvious questions:

    Please, see for yourself - pause the video during each take and count the rings that form.
    18 lateral rings are formed after each successful dynamic collision, time and time again.
    18 is the constant, but why is this? What can we glean from this phenomenon?
    I'd suggest that the number 9 may hold the secret to this mystery...

      QuasiTron Gaming I agree. I always find these ‘what’s stopping you’ lectures very played out and condescending. What’s stopping people is money, or time, or maybe their dream job just isn’t economically viable. Maybe someone’s dream is held back by their genetics.
      Granted, there are people who don’t do things because they don’t want to make the effort, but most of the time there are legitimate, tangible obstructions to dreams and ideas.

    So beautiful. A team of scientists could spend a lifetime studying this structure. There's so much information in those shapes. With more data and accuracy this avenue of research could breathe new insights into how astral bodies interact during collisions, why wavicles behave the way they do, and even just a deeper understanding of fluidic systems in biology and the natural world. May even be the precursor to futuristic inventions yet to be imagined. Groundbreaking stuff. Truly inspiring 👏

    • @brunofretsnif

      Not really, but it is a nice link you made between those two concepts. A galaxy is formed from the gravitational force of millions of stars. Because they all attract eachother, they will tend to get closer to eachother.
      On the other hand, we could maybe observe a similar phenomenon if two galaxies were to collide in a perfectly perpendicular way. But this would be extremely rare.

      @BrunoFetSnif - it might actually have some interesting connections to really early universe when we are talking more about gas clouds than stars and gravity. the way the rings end up forming high/low pressure areas and spin, i could see that playing out on a large early universe scale.
