scaling laws

What can scaling laws
tell us about nanomachines?

October 14, 2009

I recently posted my MIT doctoral dissertation, which (like my book on Nanosystems) discusses scaling laws in an introductory section.
The scaling laws inherent in geometry, classical mechanics, and the properties of materials can tell us a lot about what to expect from nanoscale systems. In particular, they show why an advanced mechanical nanotechnology can [...]
