Mine was probably solving a partial diff eq of mixed open channel flow.

Damn power series solutions to solve the boundary conditions

Trying to figure out why your mom keeps calling. Tell her to quit. It's annoying and creepy.

I had to figure the trans double volumetric intracapacity RMS of the flux capacitor.

That other thread damaged your ego pretty bad I guess.

Probably a fluids equation. I hate diff eq. That stacked on top of the experimental variables required to solve equation involving boundary and turbulent flow (I hate any equation that requires experimental variables as I cannot see where they came from and why they are what they are. You can only fit an equation to the results). Fluids taught me how to solve the problems they taught in the class. I am still not well versed on the subject.

Probably some problem in the second mechanics or quantum...actually those Kittel problems in condensed matter were mind fricks too. Reciprocal space wasn't my friend.

I figured out the deflection of a cantilevered beam today

Took me a couple hours but I got it

Determining human factors variables and risks. As a ChE, humans are too damn illogical to design around.

If the most difficult problem you've solved is one from a textbook, you haven't done much with your life.

Yeah, all that real world actual math and science shite won't get you past a government regulator on a power trip.

Imaginary Numbers never turn you down. When all the others turn you away, they're around.
