New research could signal a step change in the quest to design the new materials that are needed to meet the challenge of net zero and a sustainable future. Researchers have shown that a mathematical ...

When it comes to teaching math, a debate has persisted for decades: How, and to what degree, should algorithms be a focus of learning math? The step-by-step procedures are among the most debated ...

Thanks to a complex mathematical algorithm, these plastic shapes follow a very specific route as they roll. In fact, researchers have shown that a shape can be designed to follow almost any path you ...
