self-assembling icosahedron
Description
Important: maybe you need multiply the size to 25.4 to convert it to right proportion This is a model 3d printed of "self-assembling" capsid of a virus: 20 fragments of an icosahedron that are mounted when agitated. Each fragment represents a unit of the capsid, and the shaking represents Brownian motions - random motion of the particles in a liquid or gas, which is the result of collision between the atoms. Each piece has two magnetos (magnets) on each side, and each side has two magnets with opposing poles: one positive and one negative. Parts printed in PLA in the printer Stella (https://boaimpressao3d.com.br/) and 3mm x 1,5mm. magnets view this pieces in Action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7NSUt8KItY&lc more references (Dodecahedron): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=br-YxeXWx6s
