University physicists study urine splash-back and offer best tactics for men (w/ Video)

10 hours ago by Bob Yirka

(Phys.org) —A team of four physicists at Brigham Young University (calling themselves "wizz-kids") has been studying the physics properties of urine splash-back in a urinal-like environment. Their mission was to uncover the fluid dynamics involved in male peeing and to hopefully discern which approach leads to the least amount of splash-back (and less mess). They will be presenting their results at the American Physical Society Meeting later this month.
It's a problem males have dealt with since the advent of clothes and porcelain toilets—letting fly at the urinal inevitably results in some splash-back onto the floor, or worse, trousers. To better understand the problem, the team at BYU set up a water tank and nozzles (emitting colored water) to mimic the natural flow of human urine as it leaves the body. They then filmed the action using high-speed cameras. Scrutiny of the video allowed the team to clearly see which sorts of techniques cause the most, or least splash-back. They also set up another tank to mimic sitting on a toilet to pee, rather than standing at a urinal.

Darn, simulated splash back video. Maybe I can find a riveting cricket match on TV to make up for the disappointment of not being able to watch real pissing.

Pointing it in the right direction is usually a good start.

At long last! This phenomenon has seriously pissed me off since I was a kid.

A little splash back beats pissing into the wind. What evil will the Mormon scientists think of next.
