Want to know how your tattoo will age with time? Well, a mathematical model might help you predict their designs will deteriorate over the years, claims a new study.
As incredible as it may seem, a formula has been laid out to evaluate the length and quality of life a tattoo can enjoy.
In a first-of-its-kind study, a mathematical model that can predict the longevity of a tattoo, even before it is designed on the body, has been brainstormed.
Dr. Ian Eames, a researcher in fluid mechanics, at the University College London (UCL), has put forth an intriguing model, one that would foretell the motion of tattoo ink particles over a long period of time and give silent advices as to which pattern to go for, reports the 'Mathematics Today journal'.
