<p>Teapot spout placed on the bottom where the pressure is highest.
The spout shape change from large opening to smaller one. it is curved like an S(and not U) shape(like a river band?) to "straighten" the water getting rid of eddys which can form after the first curve(which you have to have to pour).
The spout has a sharp tip which prevent the pot from dripping (ig nobel prize winner, teapot effect)
The tea is poured from a high distant to the cup(laminar) which cools the tea and causes the water to splash which traps sand(remember we are in the Sahara) by making a foam along with the green tea saponin molecules which have of it attracted to water and the other repelled.
The sugar makes the liquid viscous along the mints' essential oils which keeps the bubbles.</p>

<p>Her logic seems reasonable but stating that the fibers "return to their original crinkled state" is missing the fact that the fiber go through the process of spinning to improve tensile strength (as well as the options of making an infinite yarn from finite fibers by twisting them together). regardless to return to original "crinckled state" they need to overcome those forces as well as the forces of the geometry of the knit(on a different scale).<p>BTW Rayon is also made from cellulose, cellulose II. While Cellulose I(natural) is metastable it can be converted by disolving in lye to a stable form (beta-gllocouse molecolue chain goes from being parallel to being anti parllel which increases the # of hydrogen bonds as well as helping create a more stable 3d structure) which again improve tensile strength and resist wrinkles on a different scale.</p>

<p>Inspired by this post & TF comment I tried symbollic regression [0]
Basically it uses genetic algorithm to find a formula that matches known input and output vectors with minimal loss
I tried to force it to use pi constant but was unable
I don't have much expreience with this library but I'm sure with more tweaks you'll get the right result<p><pre><code>  from pysr import PySRRegressor

  def f(n):
      if n % 15 == 0:
          return 3
      elif n%5 == 0:
          return 2
      elif n%3 == 0:
          return 1
      return 0

  n = 500
  X = np.array(range(1,n)).reshape(-1,1)
  Y = np.array([f(n) for n in range(1,n)]).reshape(-1,1)
  model = PySRRegressor(
          maxsize=25,
          niterations=200,  # < Increase me for better results
          binary_operators=["+", "*"],
          unary_operators=["cos", "sin", "exp"],
          elementwise_loss="loss(prediction, target) = (prediction - target)^2",</code></pre>
)<p><pre><code>  model.fit(X,Y)
</code></pre>
Result I got is this:<p>((cos((x0 + x0) * 1.0471969) * 0.66784626) + ((cos(sin(x0 * 0.628323) * -4.0887628) + 0.06374673) * 1.1508249)) + 1.1086457<p>with compleixty 22 loss: 0.000015800686
The first term is close to 2/3 * cos(2pi*n/3) which is featured in the actual formula in the article. the constant doesn't compare to 11/15 though<p>[0] <a href="https://github.com/MilesCranmer/PySR" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/MilesCranmer/PySR</a></p>
