## Description

This MCP server provides computational tools for analyzing particle sedimentation dynamics under centrifugal force. It uses Stokes' Law to determine how particles move through viscous media. You can use `get_sedimentation_coefficient` to find the sedimentation coefficient based on particle radius and density, `calculate_terminal_velocity` to find speed at specific accelerations, `get_svedberg_constant` to characterize particles by mass, and `simulate_sedimentation_profile` to predict movement across various centrifugal intensities.

## Tools

### calculate_terminal_velocity
Determines how fast a particle will travel at a specific point in a centrifuge

### get_sedimentation_coefficient
Calculates the sedimentation coefficient for a particle

### get_svedberg_constant
Calculates the Svedberg constant to characterize the particle's sedimentation properties

### simulate_sedimentation_profile
Predicts the movement of particles over time across different centrifugal intensities

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What is the purpose of the sedimentation coefficient?**
The sedimentation coefficient measures how quickly a particle sediments per unit of centrifugal acceleration, which can be found using `get_sedimentation_coefficient`.

**How does particle shape affect the results?**
Real-world particles are rarely perfect spheres. You can use the `shapeFactor` parameter in `get_sedimentation_coefficient` to adjust for non-spherical geometries.

**Can I predict velocity across multiple accelerations?**
Yes, the `simulate_sedimentation_profile` tool allows you to provide a range of accelerations to predict velocity profiles.
