Flower designs on 8,000-year-old Mesopotamian pots reveal a “mathematical knowledge” perhaps developed to share land and ...

Mechanical and civil engineers have created a new mathematical method to design better structures, machines and versatile computer-controlled robots called "robot manipulators." The research could ...

Two effective manipulatives that can be used to support fractions and base 10 learning are base 10 blocks and Cuisenaire rods ...

Even though our teenage children may not show it the proper appreciation (yet), math is often referred to as the “universal language.” And it is, even in EDA. Whenever I’m asked what the heck I do in ...

“We are already changing the injector designs,” said Chen. The mathematical model is also changing the way that engineers approach new fuel systems. Chen said that it has led to more research in areas ...

You might think that your mouse pointer, and the rest of your computer’s user interface for that matter, was designed with a bucket load of human intuition and large dollop of design savvy. You’d be ...

Mathematical modeling allows designers to find the best switching frequency, best components, compare two sets of components and optimize the system for any conditions that the application requires ...

As a rookie engineer in my first job, my boss presented me with a pile of notebooks that belonged to a recently retired senior engineer. He asked me to distill the most common calculations in them ...
