I actually was in a University project once about designing centrifuges in a way to properly mix two powders for pharmaceutical purposes. This is absolutely non-trivial and apparently this used to be done by ear by experts in the field.

My work was about creating a computer simulation to test new designs.

I can totally see this going wrong in a secret back alley lab.
