Graphene and Newtonian mechanics

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the suitability of graphene as a topic for a paper in a "Dynamics and statics" course. Participants explore the relevance of graphene within the context of dynamics and statics, as well as its connections to materials science.

Discussion Character

  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses interest in writing a paper on graphene for a "Dynamics and statics" course but is uncertain about its appropriateness.
  • Another participant suggests that graphene may be more suitable for a Materials Science class, though they acknowledge their lack of expertise in civil or mechanical engineering.
  • A third participant asks for clarification on what specifically attracts the original poster to graphene in relation to the course topic.
  • The original poster reiterates their interest in martial science and seeks to understand if graphene fits within the dynamics topic.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on whether graphene is an appropriate topic for the course, with differing opinions on its relevance to dynamics and statics versus materials science.

I am writing a paper for "Dynamics and statics" course. I am really interested in Graphene. I am not if this is a good topic for this specific course. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance

Seems to me that graphene would be far more appropriate for a class in Materials Science but I'm not a civil or mechanical engineer so can't say for sure that it would be BAD for a course in dynamics and statics

What attracts you to graphene, in connection with a "Dynamics and statics" course?
 
well that is my question actually, I just genuinely like martial science. Just want to a paper on graphene. not sure if graphene will fit the topic of dynamics or not.
