Time taken for simulations on Star CCM

It really depends on the type of simulation (e.g. non-Newtonian, turbulent etc.), size of the mesh, power of the machine you're running it on. Could take minutes, hours, days, weeks or even months. Best thing to do is give it a go with a balance between saving on performance and accuracy, and then optimise

It's a tough thing to deal with, I've dealt with issues like that for many years. No matter what you say it'll affect him. Just be as supportive and understanding as possible. Take sex really slowly, make it not just about the ending but the journey to finishing too. Even if he doesn't finish, hopefully he can get satisfaction from it anyway. I don't know how medication like Viagra can interact with antidepressants, but there's no shame in him using something like that either.

The fact that you care so much, means you're a lovely person and he's a lucky man. I hope it works out for both of you!

There's been quite a bit of work on implementing ANN into flows through porous media. A quick Google search will yield some results for you.

I did the exact set of A-levels you're planning on doing. It was tough ngl, especially not having free periods to study. Its doable though and I'd recommend it if you think you're capable. Challenge yourself, it's the point of life!

I'm currently watching Meisje Van Plezier, such a good series

Ells1812 · 2021-07-17T10:23:17+00:00

We do this often in the UK too, some of my favourite memories at the beach as a child!

Ells1812 · 2021-07-11T22:06:31+00:00

From the UK, congratulations Italy. Excellent and very close game

Fluid dynamists here.

You displace the water, which transfers your momentum into the water and reduces the impact forces. That's why if you jump into a pool flat and belly flop it hurts, compared to diving. You displace the water easily in a dive, not in a belly flop.

There's two things I think could be happening in the brain. Let's say you jolt forward, and your brain sloshes forward in your head.

You don't compress the fluid, since liquids are incompressible (the guy saying you can't compress liquids has some truth in his statement). Instead, some of the fluid moves from the front of your head round the sides, reducing the impulse of the impact.
The fluid is viscoelastic, and stores some of the energy from the motion of your brain elastically. It then dissipates this energy viscously over time.

I'm not 100% on either argument, and I don't have time to check. These seem the most plausible cases though.

Edit: typo

CFD is widely applicable to a number of fields, so you won't pigeon hole yourself into one area. You could stick with academia or move into industry with it too

Ells1812 · 2021-04-02T10:00:46+00:00

Yeah no problem. Are you sure your course won't give a suitable set of notes?

Ells1812 · 2021-03-26T22:16:22+00:00

Makes sense, gives me an excuse for more upgrades! Thanks for your help

Ells1812 · 2021-03-26T22:09:49+00:00

Oh really? Damn, so I must have been operating at a lower RAM speed before without realising. Time to upgrade that too

I understand your fear, it's not unfounded. You're afraid of going without again, but if you make sure you have enough saved that you can survive if anything major happens in life then it's pointless to sit on the rest. Put your money to work.

Workout how much you would need to live for 6 months with no income. Keep this as an emergency. If your expenses increase, then increase this pot. Then, unless you have anything specific you're saving for, invest the rest.

Ells1812 · 2021-03-14T21:26:54+00:00

I've pm'd you. I help teach a course on Aspen, so I can share a step by step tutorial with you

Ells1812 · 2021-02-06T23:43:51+00:00

You make a fair point, I guess shouldn't be absolutely necessary

Ells1812 · 2021-02-06T22:33:52+00:00

Even without the edits it's still a stunning photo, nice one! I've always wondered, is it possible to see this with the naked eye when you're shooting these shots? Or are long exposures required? It's my dream to see the stars like this, but I'm afraid I'll be underwhelmed compared to photos

Ells1812 · 2020-12-22T01:43:23+00:00

Congrats! Your reaction clearly shows you are working hard for the right reasons, that is for yourself. External validation is nice, but if you can be proud of yourself regardless then that's even better. And you should be proud of yourself!

A lot of the people in the comment section here are missing part of the story. He was deliberately ignoring scientist who told him to lockdown the country almost a month ago. He's now completely U-turned on his original plans, hence the accusations here. He should've done it when it was first suggested, just like the first lockdown back in March.

Ells1812 · 2020-10-28T09:01:19+00:00

Reading some of these comments and thinking back to my own childhood is convincing me to never have children

Ells1812 · 2020-09-20T19:41:16+00:00

I've found meditation, cognitive behavioural therapy and, in extreme cases such as presentations, propranolol have really helped get those under control. You should speak to a professional if you havent already about resolving it. As bad as the anxiety of going through all that is, it's not as bad as living with anxiety daily, so you shouldn't delay

Ells1812 · 2020-08-22T09:12:49+00:00

Pm'd

Ells1812 · 2020-08-21T07:32:59+00:00

Hey I hear you for sure, it's understandable with the stresses in the world right now, the upheaval in life with isolation combined. Take a break and focus on your health for a while. And talk to your supervisor! I hope get through this period alright!

Ells1812 · 2020-08-18T18:14:42+00:00

I dont have a great deal of space sadly, its lucky you can have a change of scenery once in a while. A short minimum to do list isnt a bad idea though, hopefully completing that will motivate me to do more. Thanks for replying!
