Structures: dynamic, complexity, organisation

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a school project focused on dynamic structures, complexity, and organization. The student seeks a manageable topic that allows for personal input rather than just documentation, expressing interest in programming but feeling overwhelmed by complex subjects like Saturn's rings. Suggestions include exploring Ilya Prigogine's work and the pigmentation patterns of mollusk shells as potential topics. The project requires experiments or a program to model a physical phenomenon and is aimed at a second-year college level. The student is looking for feasible ideas that can be implemented within the project's constraints.

Hi,

I have to make a project for school about the topic on the title. It must be a personal work, i mean i can't choose a difficult subject cause then all my presentation could be just a simple documentation. Also, the project could include just one or two of the topics in the title. I thought about writing a program (complexity). But i don't really have ideas. I thought of saturn rings, but i think it's difficult. Well, is there anyone who has any idea? Please, i really can't find any subject.

Thanks (and sorry for the passable english)
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I see that his work is about chemistry. I don't know. Our teacher told us that our work can be about computering, physics or mathematics...but not chemistry :(
 
Search "structure of spacetime" and you'll find topics in physical mathematics...like general relativity.

Must your project must be 'original work' rather than research ['documentation'] ??

What parameters did your teacher set for your efforts? At what education level is this?
 
As i said ...if it's a complex subject, it would be difficult for me to add something personal in my project. It will be just a domcumentary prensentation.

My work must include some experiements...or a program to modelise a physical phenomenon.
Well, in french we call this kind of project TIPE https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travail_d'initiative_personnelle_encadré
And for the level, it's the equivalent of second year of college.

Anyway, i found this. http://arxiv.org/pdf/1302.4097.pdf
It's recent and really interesting, but i don't know if i can do anything i mean reporting all of those formulas in a program that modelise all the rings' structure. I think that would be difficult and maybe impossible with python. This is why i asked if there is anyone who has any idea.
