Who wants to talk about heat transfer models or biomaterials? My Heat Transfer professor is actually having us run our models in Microsoft Excel instead of matlab, and I can't tell if he's screwing with us or if he is just a terrible engineer.

Picture unrelated, but should be nostalgic for the old /sci/ crowd.

>running models in excel

you must be lying

nope. We're running finite difference models of heat transfer through materials and for anything longer than a second or so he just has us copy our cells out for a few hundred columns. I really hope that's not how he does his research. I'm just going to keep this class a secret and deny everything if anyone asks me what we learned to model in.

Nobody here doing material science or biomaterials this term?

this is the only bump I'm going to make. maybe /g/ will talk about something beyond high school level.

let's get this shit started
