	ICBP 2004
		The biological function usually depends on concentration variations of key chemical reactants, and a lyotropic modeling of this kind of living systems at non-equilibrium conditions appears to be the realistic type of approach for an understanding of their dynamics and biological function.
		There are 16 plenary lectures and 12 symposia, in principle covering all areas within biological physics with the aim to present the frontier developments.
		In particular, a quantitative knowledge of the harmonic-displacive type dynamics of DNA, its nonlinear dependence on density and distance variations, sequence of bases, and quantum effects, are also prerequisites to interprete and evaluate various recent experiments on the electronic and elastic properties of the “molecule of life”.

	Main Fluid Mechanics Site: Introduction
		Fluid mechanics is one of the oldest and richest branches of mechanics and applied physics.

	Amazon.co.uk: Fluid Dynamics for Physicists: Books
		Undergraduate or graduate students in physics or engineering who are taking courses in fluid dynamics will find this book invaluable, but it will also be of great interest to anyone who wants to find out more about this fascinating subject.
		It is over three hundred and fifty years since Torricelli discovered the law obeyed by fountains, yet fluid dynamics remains an active and important branch of physics.
		Beginning with a gentle introduction, the book goes on to cover Bernouilli's theorem, compressible flow, potential flow, surface waves, viscosity, vorticity dynamics, thermal convection and instabilities, turbulence, non-Newtonian fluids and the propagation and attenuation of sound in gases.

	Comments on the Culture of the Force - Physics Today August 2005
		I: Culture Shock" (PHYSICS TODAY, October 2004, page 11) appears to be that although the force is, in Wilczek's words, "vaguely defined," it "continues to flourish" because the microscopic details it conceals are not really relevant for the scale of the phenomena it serves to describe.
		Just as the contact force had to be found as the appropriate force to describe the dynamics of the continuum, the physically realistic short-time force derived from the mean instantaneous potential had to be discovered as the force that describes typical chemical dynamics in liquids,
		He commented that "many of the problems of molecular structure are concerned essentially with forces," that "forces are almost as easy to calculate as energies are," and that "the quantities are quite as easy to interpret." Another application of the concept of force is found in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics.

	Chaos theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Except for Smale, who was perhaps the first pure mathematician to study nonlinear dynamics, these studies were all directly inspired by physics: the three-body problem in the case of Birkhoff, turbulence and astronomical problems in the case of Kolmogorov, and radio engineering in the case of Cartwright and Littlewood.
		Linear and Nonlinear Dynamics and Vibrations Laboratory at the University of Illinois
		In mathematics and physics, chaos theory deals with the behavior of certain nonlinear dynamical systems that (under certain conditions) exhibit the phenomenon known as chaos, most famously characterised by sensitivity to initial conditions (see butterfly effect).

	Living State Physics
		It is an interdisciplinary field that draws upon the tools, methods, and theories of physics, biology, engineering, and medicine, as well as computational physics and non-linear dynamics, to increase our understanding of biological systems and phenomena.
		Apart from contributing to progress in biology and medicine, the knowledge that flows from Living State Physics simultaneously advances the physical sciences, particularly polymer physics, molecular dynamics, and solid state physics, as well as engineering fields such as electronics and materials science.
		Physicists have already made significant contributions to medicine and biology, primarily in medical physics, which emphasizes the application of radiation to diagnosis, imaging, and therapy; and in biophysics, which is concerned largely with the properties and behavior of biological molecules.

		Biophysics (also biological physics) is an interdisciplinary science that applies theories and methods of the physical sciences to questions of biology.
