Parameters

  • Components
    • Radius of each component: 25 mm
    • Thickness of each component: 8 mm
    • Radius of magnet: 1.5 mm
    • Strength of magnet: N48
    • Polyamide
  • Container
    • Radius of container: 125 mm
    • Depth of container: 9 mm
    • Material: Acrylic
  • Shaker
    • Mode: Orbital shaking
    • Speed: 300 rpm
    • Duration for shaking: until stable structures are formed

Experiments

  • Simulated experiments
    • Probability of the formation of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 targets for increasing number of components
  • Physical experiments
    • Probability of the formation of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 targets for increasing number of components

Particulars of experiments (10 trials each)

  • Photos of initial condition and final condition
  • Assembly of one target structure
    • Data to be collected: number of targets and number of incompatible substructures, time for steady state
  • Assembly of two target structures
    • Data to be collected: number of targets and number of incompatible substructures, time for steady state
  • Assembly of three target structures
    • Data to be collected: number of targets and number of incompatible substructures, time for steady state
  • Assembly of four target structures
    • Data to be collected: number of targets and number of incompatible substructures, time for steady state
  • Assembly of five target structures
    • Data to be collected: number of targets and number of incompatible substructures, time for steady state
  • Results to show
    • The simulated probability of the formation of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 target structures in self-assembly experiments
    • Comparison of simulated probability vs. probability achieved in physical experiments
    • Reasons for similarities and/or differences between simulated probability vs. probability of physical experiments
