The Irish mathematician and physicist William Rowan Hamilton, who was born 220 years ago last month, is famous for carving ...

Beneath every perfect wave is a formula of wind, swell, and seafloor. But for those who chase them, the ideal ride is part science, part soul. Carson’s words reflect something surfers have long ...

A while back, [Chris Lu] was studying how analog circuits, specifically op-amps can be used to perform mathematical operations and wondered if they could be persuaded to solve differential equations, ...

While William Rowan Hamilton isn’t a household name like, say, Einstein or Hawking, he might have been. It turns out the ...

It was shown in two earlier papers that, if u(x, t) = u(x1, x2, x3, t) satisfies the wave equation in the exterior of some fixed sphere r = a and vanishes for t ⩽ r, then ru(rξ, r + τ) ∼ f(ξ, τ) as r ...

Extreme heat can pose several health risks, especially during sustained periods of high temperatures. However, a uniform definition of a heat wave doesn't exist. As a result, public health agencies ...
