Tessa Bailey, Environmental Engineering and Geoscience at the U of Utah, Week 2
On Monday I started the week with two new topics: another coding problem and an introduction to a chemistry lab. The coding problem can be done two ways: 3D or 2D. The 3D version, REV (Representative Elementary Volume,) is the most relevant to our lab as it represents samples taken from rocks that show the […]
