Destruction Value of Nuclear Pasta

[GodlyCharmander]

According to the current method we use, we scale shear modulus or modulus of rigidity of a certain material to fragmentation.

Sci-News describes Nuclear Pasta's shear modulus to be 10^30 ergs/cm3, or 10^23 mpa so we can scale things from there. Here too

Fragmentation: 1e+23 J/cm³

There is no info on tensile or compressive strength on the material, so this would be used as a low ball for destroying anything on that caliber, or stronger than said caliber.

Looks fine at a glance but uh...

What would we even use it for LMFAO

I don't fuggin' know, it's veeery situational lmfao

Oh well.

I guess you could call up DontTalkDT and Spino (Since they are the guys who worked with the chart) and if they agree, we can just add this to the Destruction Values chart? Maybe Bambu too, he did a bit of work as well. Since this is uncontroversial and so situational, I doubt it would cause any uproar.

Plus, we'd need explicit statements for an item to be made out of nuclear pasta to even qualify for this.

Yeah, sure.
It's too bad we lack info on it, although I doubt a lot of verses will use that anyway

Too bad indeed.

I think I know one verse or two which use this material, such as Satisfactory, but I don't think they have a page here.

when a character rips out a chunk of a neutron star

 

[KLOL506]

when a character rips out a chunk of the crust of a neutron star

FTFY

It's still super, super specific, most of the times they'd just blow up Neutron Stars for which we can just either go GBE or just figure out high-speed KE.

 

[Urshani]

i admit that it is

what tier is eating nuclear pasta, as if it were pasta?

 

[KLOL506]

bruh

well for starters, we gotta figure out the depth of the neutron star crust and the area it covers. And then there's the mass and density.

this thread is the first time i heard the phrase "nuclear pasta" and i actually thought it was like an irradiated pasta

assume average neutron star

 

[KLOL506]

assume average neutron star

we don't have crust values for average neutron stars AFAIK

My first thought was something akin to Ultron's "messy universe soup".

GOD DAMN IT

 

[GodlyCharmander]

The density is 1e17kg/m³

 

[Mr. Bambu]

I don't think this really needs to go on the chart, given the chart is intended to be concise information about the most common materials and I've quite literally never seen nuclear pasta mentioned in fiction ever. That said, that is indeed how we get our destruction values, yes.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Yeah not sure why anyone would need this lmao. But if you have a calc where someone uh breaks nuclear pasta or something then yes indeed we use shear strength as fragmentation.

 

[GodlyCharmander]

Wouldn't like, something stated such as "the strongest material in the universe" be suitable for this?

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

If it's literal then maybe, but most of the time statements like that are unreliable
