  1. The mechanics of calculating curl.

  2. More on the mechanics of the Federal Funds rate and how it increases the money supply.

  3. Lecture 4 of Leonard Susskind's Modern Physics course concentrating on Quantum Mechanics. Recorded February 4, 2008 at Stanford University.

  4. Understanding conformational relationships makes it easy to draw idealized chair structures for cyclohexane and to visualize axial-equatorial interconversion. After quantitative consideration of the conformational energies of ethane, propane, and butane, cyclohexane is used to illustrate the utility of molecular mechanics as an alternative to quantum mechanics for estimating such energies. To give useful accuracy this empirical scheme requ...more

  5. Professor Diamond's review of the lymphatic system continues with the lymphatic vessels and lymph. Professor Diamond compares lymphatic vessels to the cardiovascular system and notes the differences in structure. Next, Professor Diamond defines lymph (tissue fluid) and its composition and function. The movement of lymph is also discussed, and again, this is compared to the movement of blood through the body. The absorption of fat by the ve...more

  6. Professor Barry Sharpless of Scripps describes the Nobel-prizewinning development of titanium-based catalysts for stereoselective oxidation, the mechanism of their reactions, and their use in preparing esomeprazole. Conformational energy of cyclic alkanes illustrates the use of molecular mechanics.

  7. Turner talks about how the James Bond character was done in the third person in the game and his style and control comes from the mechanics of how he moves.  He is always the master of his environment, she says.

  8. May 19, 2009 - Leonard Susskind lectures on a new class of systems, magnetic systems. He goes on to talk about mean field approximations of molecules in multidimensional lattice systems.
