Same frequencies for smaller machinery
With frequencies kept constant for smaller machinery, speeds fall linearly for smaller machinery.
This is leading to a bad unter-utilization of nanoscale machinery capabilities.
Random example taking taking FFF 3D printing as a macroscale baseline for frequency.
- 100mm/s like average 3D printer speeds at 10cm=100mm scale (1Hz)
- => 1mm/s at 1mm scale => 1um/s at 1um scale
- => 10nm/s at 10nm scale
That is even slower than diffusion based transport in bilogical nanosystems.
Proposed speeds for advanced diamondoid/gemstone-based nanosystems.
In the book Nanosystems proposed where around 4mm/s at the smallest scales (~10nm).
And natural would be to (non-gradually) move back up to at least 100mm/s when moving back up to the the macroscale (10cm=100mm).
Same absolute speeds for smaller machinery seems to be a better baseline but also a bad one.
Still giving a design space point far away from even the beginning of any halfway decent optimization.
