UW Combinatorics and Geometry Seminar: Dmitry Ryabogin
Topic
On equilibrium positions of convex bodies
Speakers
Details
Let be a convex body made of material of uniform density less than 1 submerged into water of density 1. How to find the directions of equilibrium of $K$? How many directions of equilibrium does a triangular prism have? (A direction orthogonal to the water surface is called the direction of equilibrium if the line passing through the center of mass of and the center of mass of the underwater part is parallel to ).
