"Dizzy dendrite" pattern
grown in an 80-nanometer thick film of two blended polymers with
randomly dispersed clay particles.
Computer simulation
of the crystal structure for a copper-nickel alloy with randomly
dispersed particles.
Spiraling dendrites
produced when the simulation assumes that the particles are randomly
dispersed and rotating.
Multiple crystal structures
predicted with rotating particles. Each color represents a separate
crystal.
