DEMLab is a MATLAB program for performing numerical simulations of particle systems using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). Its purpose is to offer a modular and extensible environment that allows ...

Abstract: Clouds are an important factor affecting climate change and the cloud microphysical characteristics are an important aspect to describe the cloud. Airborne two-dimensional stereo probe ...

After more than three centuries, a geometry problem that originated with a royal bet has been solved. Imagine you’re holding two equal-size dice. Is it possible to bore a tunnel through one die that’s ...

Abstract: This study proposes an efficient Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for predicting the dimensions and feed point of microstrip patch antennas with three types of geometrical shape. The ...

John Etnyre receives funding from the National Science Foundation and the Elaine M. Hubbard Distinguished Faculty Award When you look at your surrounding environment, it might seem like you’re living ...

Before jumping on a new makeup or hair trend, the obvious question you may ask your friends or family is, "Do you think this would look good on me?" Totally fair, especially since different hairstyles ...

How few corners can a shape have and still tile the plane?” mathematician Gábor Domokos asked me over pizza. His deceptively simple question was about the geometry of tilings, also called ...

In two dimensions, it’s the Reuleaux triangle: an equilateral triangle with curved arcs connecting each corner, creating a shape with a constant width but a smaller area than a circle. Now, a team of ...

For the indecisive, having many different nail shapes can be both a blessing and a curse. On one hand (forgive the pun), it can be an easy way to elongate your fingers or elevate whatever intricate ...
