AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on an undergraduate mechanical engineering student seeking to engage in research and explore new areas, particularly in energy management. Participants suggest checking with the university for potential research assistant programs, though these are often reserved for graduate students. The student expresses a strong interest in renewable energy sources like wind and solar power, indicating a desire to build a foundation for future research. Recommendations include focusing on academic performance while seeking out clubs and independent study opportunities. The consensus emphasizes balancing current studies with aspirations for research involvement.

I am a undergraduate of mechanical Engineering.so I just learning theories regarding these section. but i want to do something different. I want to join researches, I want do something new. I have to find very reliable path to archive it. How can I do this?

So you want to be a research assistant? Check with your university. They may have some type of program for undergrads but typically RA's are grad students.

Thanks for giving your idea...
I hope little more friends..

In the next year we are going to have project.But still i am in my study sessions. I am so interested in energy management. Such as wind power,sea wave abstraction, solar power... I need to build some foundation for my own research. These kind of energy sources are readily available in this place where am I studied.

I think, what you mention is depending on what I want to achieve.I sorry for not mention much of my ambition of this thread.

You little idea, sometimes Encourage me lots,... so leave you idea..

It's great that your courses are getting you excited to learn faster, but the best path for now is probably to do your best in your classes and as long as you are doing well, seek out clubs and independent study courses in school. Just don't jump so far ahead that you start doing badly in your required courses and remember, the world will still be there when you finish your undergrad degree!
 
How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...
Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'
Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
