Researchers showcased hands-on demonstrations linking theory to real-world uses. Scientists explained how studies in glass physics inform space station material research, and engaged families with interactive experiments simulating weightlessness, cavitation bubbles and impact protection systems.
An interactive "Mechanics in Poetry" corner explored the science behind classical Chinese verse — decoding Bernoulli's principle in Du Fu's lines about wind-lifted thatch and gravitational energy in Li Bai's depiction of a plunging waterfall.
