Recent decades have witnessed a bloom in research at the interface of complex geometry and nonlinear partial differential equations. This interdisciplinary field explores the deep and intricate ...
For years, Rutgers physicist David Shih solved Rubik's Cubes with his children, twisting the colorful squares until the ...
In theory, almost any aspect of the physical world can be modeled and analyzed mathematically. In practice though, performing the mathematical manipulations required to perform an analysis can rapidly ...
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 ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) As our digital devices handle increasingly complex computations, scientists have looked to physics for inspiration on new computing paradigms. Rather than shuttling electrical ...
Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...
