Brownian motor Brownian motor Brownian motors are nano-scale or molecular devices by which thermally activated processes (chemical reactions) are controlled and used to generate directed motion in space and to do mechanical or electrical work. These tiny engines operate in an environment where viscosity dominates inertia, and where thermal noise makes moving in a specific direction as difficult as walking in a hurricane: the forces impelling these motors in the desired direction are minuscule in comparison with the random forces exerted by the environment. Because this type of motor is so strongly dependent on random thermal noise, Brownian motors are feasible only
Brownian Motion Ultimate proving that Brownian Motion could compete with the best teams in the country. It was also at this time that Brownian Motion re-constituted its "B" team, nicknamed Polyester Funkadelic or P-Funk. The success of 1998 continued as Brown lost only one other game on its way to its first National's berth ever in the Spring season. At Nationals, Brown went 3-3, losing to the eventual champions UC Santa Barbara and Stanford. However, Brown also beat the third ranked Carleton College 13-12. Brown left nationals as one of the top ranked college programs in the nation. These years also gave the
