14 CHAPTER 1. DEAL WITH THE DEVIL Figure 1.4: Bohr caught while plotting to take control of modern physics in 1914: In order to describe our mental activity, we require, on the one hand, an objectively given content to be juxtaposed to a perceiving subject, while, on the other hand, no sharp separation between object and subject can be maintained, since the perceiving subject also belongs to our mental content.
1.5. PRANDTL: FATHER OF MODERN FLUID MECHANICS 15 Figure 1.5: Prandtl in 1904: I have now set myself the task to investigate systematically the laws of motion of a fluid whose viscosity is assumed to be very small.. Figure 1.6: Prandtl in 1904: A very satisfactory explanation of the physical process in the boundary layer [Grenz-schicht] between a fluid and a solid body could be obtained by the hypothesis of an adhesion of the fluid to the walls, that is, by the hypothesis of a zero relative velocity between fluid and wall.
