Graphically Interactive Periodic Chart Concepts by Bo Atkinson 1993

 

Following the example of Elsevier'sPeriodic Table of Elements*, this work outlines additional physical relationships and graphical tools for experimental interactivity. (* Elsevier Science Publishers .BV.) My severe abbreviation of charts intends to focus on more common elements (which have better known attributes).  Elements were rearranged only out of curiosity. In the early 1990's a now extinct and primitive software was used. Please bear with the low graphic quality and the experimental abreviation of elements listed. Expanding color ranges was intended, to take advantage of evolving PCs, but only B&W printing was available during that time. It is provided "as is.

The first interactive concept was to drag one chart (or more) over another chart to observe combined color-shade values. New inroads to physical properties might be found by graphically contrasting charted properties. Unfortunately only a hint of this feature is seen on this page. I did this: Click on a chart "half way" (click down and don't release button). Then drag the chart (button still down), over another chart. Note that as the chart is dragged, it becomes translucent. The objective would be to do so without loss of image size and with lasting ability to keep the images stacked for viewing the combined graphical effect. Chart examples follow.

The first two chart subjects were included in Elsevier's 1987 chart, but more color shades were added to explore possibilities of graphical potentials. Also the lanthanide and actinide series of elements were experimentally placed in numerical order,(in contrast to standard charts). So called newer elements were not deemed useful or relavent for these charts. Ability to move rows and columns might add exploration potential.

 

Successive increases of atomic weight gain was innovated by me, Bo. This concept should also apply to all other properties, (e.g.: successive changes of magnetic properties).

Magnetic Susceptibilities data was taken from "Magnetism An Introductory Survey" by E.W.Lee. This information reveals a charting weakness due to property ranges within single elements.

The remaining properties were taken from engineering references.
