In science, the concept of chaos refers to systems that are so sensitive to initial conditions that their results seem random.
The first phase of the new work was to create simulations of various attractors so users could explore various options for choosing the desired shape – essentially allowing them to “create custom and mathematically coded jewels,” according to the scientists.
Based on the shape chosen, a file was created for the 3D printer and this file was sent to the printer to create a model. The mold was then sent to a jeweler who made the final metal parts. Some chaotic geometries were too complex for traditional jewelry making methods, so they were made directly on a 3D printer. Scientists have even experimented with a nanoscale gem authentication system (creating micro and nanoscale objects that can be embedded in jewelry).
