Civil Engineering students set to build a record-breaking beer crates bridgeAfter eight years without undertaking an attempt, students of the University of Twente are trying to break the inofficial record of the tallest beer crate bridge. Nine students are preparing the construction of a bridge, consisting of beer crates, with a span of over 28 meters. The attempt will take place in November.Read more
University of Twente students unravel the physics behind the perfect ‘water bottle flip’‘Water bottle flipping’ involves throwing plastic bottles partly filled with water end over end, and getting them to land on their base and remain upright. It was a huge hype among young people in 2016 and 2017. Five first-year physics students at the University of Twente explored the science behind this hype. They unravelled the physics behind the perfect flip, and calculated the ideal level of water involved. This study is being published in the American Journal of Physics.Read more
