Purdue study supports WTC collapse findings

INDIANAPOLIS — A computer simulation of the 2001 World Trade Center attacks supports a federal agency's findings that the initial impact from the hijacked airplanes stripped away crucial fireproofing material and that the weakened towers collapsed under their own weight.
The two-year Purdue University study, funded in part by the National Science Foundation, was the first to use 3-D animation to provide visual context to the attacks, said Christoph Hoffmann, a professor of computer science and one of the lead researchers on the project.

Hmmm......a study by Purdue supports the Governments report......I guess though Purdue is now a Government lacky?

Yet again, a study done which fits a predetermined hypothesis..

Fireproofing or not, it makes absolutely no difference. It is simple physics that jet fuel can not burn hot enough to melt or weaken steel. Combine that with the sheer size of the core columns, and the number of them, aswell as the conduction of heat away from zone of heating.. and you have yourself a bogus simulation.

That is all irrelevant anyway once you come to realise the simple truth that no planes hit the towers..

Aluminium planes can slice through steel box columns like butter.. Jet fuel fires can weaken high grade steel.. A pancake collapse can pulverize 99% of the building into micron fine powder.. And still have enough energy left over to keep steel molten in the basement of the WTC for 100 days..

Hurray for cartoon physics!!

Sorry, we already have an existing discussion on this exact article.
