Chris's Crazy Ideas

Only my opinions and life's experience 

• About me - My CV on-line
• Plasma Containment - another calculation using current sheets. new
• FET - teenage suggestion
• Germanium Triode - a childish construction.
• Lorenz contraction - a simple, but difficult way of measurement
• Velocity of light - a simple way of measuring the velocity of light.
• Molecular Computers - can molecules be used as logic gates.
• Thermonuclear Fusion Ideas Collection of essays
• Hunch - will a simple, low energy system work?
• Success!  Experiment to find central force inside solenoid gives positive result.
• New Experiments - Experiment planned to measure the central force inside a solenoid on a shorted loop.
• String Theory - a discussion
• Thermonuclear Fusion:  My idea on "how to contain hot plasma" was the result of a calculation that may have errors. See Field due to Solenoid and "inductance" and see force on shorted loop below
• Thermonuclear Fusion 2 Is this design a "Tukomak"?
• Containment Experiment - does this unauthorised experiment hold the key to plasma containment?
• Plasma Engine This model may be the result of a flawed calculation see SOLENOID and "inductance" below.
• Electricity From Fire This model may be the result of a flawed calculation see SOLENOID and "inductance" below.
• Inductance There may be errors in the calculation, I will be repeating this finite element analysis.
• NOTE I have been told that the principle of my calculation was correct and there is no conflict with other theories.  Practical devices are designed using calculations like these.
• Experiment to show the magnetic field due to a solenoid
• Experiment to show the magnetic field due to a current loop
• Experiment to test for force on shorted loop in a coil carrying alternating current.  This experiment refutes my calculations.
• Experiment two to test for force on a current loop inside another current loop carrying alternating current
• Further experiments with solenoids and shorted loops using a sensitive balance are planned.  Keep looking!
• Weather Cycle - Has all this weather occurred before?
• Urban Transport - to beat the traffic congestion
• Desert Communities - To populate the deserts
• Greenhouses - to grow crops out of season
• Fish Farms - to end hunting and gathering
• The Photon Rocket  -  is this the future of space travel?
• A Photographic Process (Copper as Photo-Sensitive Material)
• Magnetic Fields (On their non-existance)
• STAR WARS  (Suggestion for a GASER) A powerful beam device for destruction of matter. Now with outlined details of a hand held nuclear powered beam matter destroyer.
• Cellular Differentiation (Mathematical Model) based on Turing's suggestion, fundamental to Biology.
• Making the hot desert wet (Solar powered Fridge) - Updated 7-6-2003 May give wealth to arid regions. No Calculations here.
• Extracting Water from air (Air refrigerator based on expansion) (Could be used to provide water in arid lands)
• Artificial Intelligence (Perceptrons) The way our minds work? Contains Hebbian Algorithm and model for reflection.
• Intelligence Artificial (BOOK) A 218 pp essay on the nature of intelligence.
• An Associative Memory Device: Can we make an associative memory
• SETI some thoughts on the on-going search for extra-terrestrial intelligence. 
• The Lithium Cell (My investigation) An early cell may be useful in schools as a demo. Entirely practical.
• The Matter transmitter (a speculation) Star Trek inspired....?
• Relativity - Affine Geometry - The end of the "Twin" paradox?
• PhotoSynthesis - A demonstration with simple compounds may be done in school.
• Artificial Diamond Manufacture - A simple cheap process to try in your kitchen?
• Aluminum Extraction from soil - A practical way of extraction. Has been demonstrated.
• 600 AD, the Dark Ages and the Birth of Islam
• Encryption of Data - A practical example and shareware program
• Laser Accelerometer - an impractical suggestion. I now realize that this is a Michleson interferometer.
• Direct conversion of Fire into electricity - a suggestion.
• A Two Way 3-D Viewing Screen - A development from a Victorian Suggestion
• Worlds in Collision - an interpretation of a book by Veloski
• The Biblical Flood - Ice Age Meltdown?
• Economic Oscillator - Does the economy oscillate.
• ACME - simple treatment is OK
• AZT - to treat Cancer
• VIRUS to cure disease
• Psychiatry who is really sick
• Galactic Empire - is there a great civilisation "out in space"?
• Mars - is there "life"?
• Life in the Universe - does "life" occur elsewhere?

In these pages you will find some speculation and some practical devices. Any exploitation of my ideas is beyond my means so I'm asking any interested persons to.  Feel free to try-out any of these ideas (where practical), just acknowledge my contribution. I am an amateur at all these subjects, I do have three first degrees, but that does not make me an expert or to have any special knowledge.  Do not take my suggestions too seriously, any ideas you try are at your own risk, I do not know if any of them are correct or "true". 

If there are any comments please leave them on my guest book. or my feedback page.
