Nanotechnology Basics — 3D Brownian Motion & van der Waals Aggregation
Free-orbit 3D volume of nanoparticles undergoing real Stokes-Einstein Brownian motion in a fluid, with a Lennard-Jones-like van der Waals force pulling nearby particles into 3D clusters.
This is the same foundational nanoscale physics as the 2D version — Stokes-Einstein Brownian diffusion competing with a Lennard-Jones-like van der Waals attraction — but modelled in a genuine 3D fluid volume with instanced spheres and a free-orbit camera, so cluster shapes and the true three-dimensional random walk are visible from any angle instead of being flattened onto a plane.
Explore 3D nanoparticle clustering in a fluid using Stokes-Einstein and van der Waals forces. Adjust temperature, particle size, attraction strength, and fluid viscosity to observe dynamic clusters.
