Successes of modern physics and consequent technologies have enabled humanity to create our global village. However, despite their thorough training and proven, useful knowledge, physicists are nowadays often treated as a relatively inexpensive 'commodity'. Encouraged by experience of several former students, and by using selected examples, I argue that as a community we should better 'market' our physics profession that, in addition to its primary role - rational understanding of nature - provides: i) the most versatile undergraduate d • On Fractal Geometry for Water Implosion EngineeringWATER On Fractal Geometry for Water Implosion Engineering Jurendic T1, Pavuna D2* 1 Bioquanta Inc., Dravska 17, HR-48000 Koprivnica, Croatia 2 Physics Section, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) Station 3, FSB, CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland *Correspondence E-mail: davor.pavuna@epfl.ch Key Words: fluid mechanics, fractal geometry, implosion engineering, vortex, water clusters Received March 22nd, 2012; Accepted June 11th, 2012; Published December 9th, 2012; Available online December 15th, 2012 doi: 10.14294/WATER.2012.7 Summary 1988), even though there exists much more potent, and well established, mathematical approaches. In this brief paper we outline a more appropriate approach to water (and related fluids) by using fractal mathematics (Mandelbrot, 1983) in the context of fluid engineering. Such an approach could gradually enable numerous, useful engineering applications, specially in the implosion pump development
