In January I wrote a piece titled “ 5 Physics Equations Everyone Should Know .” Lots of you weighed in with your own ...

The math of even the simplest ocean waves is notoriously uncooperative. A team of Italian mathematicians has made major ...

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

A team of international physicists has brought Bayes’ centuries-old probability rule into the quantum world. By applying the ...

Mathematics is not about becoming a mathematician. It is about clarity of thought. It teaches precision, attention, and ...

Abstract: Recent research has shown that the load flow equations describing the steady-state conditions in a radial network can be formulated as a second-order cone program and solved using polynomial ...

Molecular dynamics is a method that uses Newton’s equations of motion to computationally simulate the time evolution of a set of interacting atoms. Such techniques are dependent on a description of ...

Math. It’s that five-letter word that still manages to haunt the dreams of both high school sophomores and overworked college students alike. Derivatives, matrices, word problems that somehow involve ...

"This booklet provides a very lucid and versatile introduction to the methods of linear partial differential equations. It covers a wealth of very important material in a concise, nevertheless very ...

Abstract: We investigate how to discover all common visual patterns within two sets of feature points. Common visual patterns generally share similar local features as well as similar spatial layout.
