Dylan Kane likes his math curriculum. But there’s one important piece missing, he says. The 7th grade math teacher in Leadville, Colo., uses a program that teaches math skills through real-world ...

Last week, I introduced Emmy Noether, an extraordinary figure in the fields of mathematics and physics. To understand Noether ...

How Emmy Noether's theorem uses the Lagrangian to provide a formula for calculating the quantity of symmetries in a system—like the orbit of planets.

Time has always seemed like the one thing physics could count on. Matter changes, stars die, particles flicker in and out, ...

In this video I will work through 22 different examples of solving two-step equations using a worksheet I created for my students. I will use the properties of equality, inverse operations, and ...

Pulmonary function tests, or PFTs, help show how well your lungs are working. Your healthcare provider may recommend that you get this test to help figure out why you are feeling short of breath or if ...

This paper focuses on obtaining the exact solutions to the variable-coefficient forced Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation for modeling spatial inhomogeneity in fluids. By combining the direct similarity ...

All the tech we rely on, from cars to smartphones, was engineered using physics. You don’t need to know the science to use these things. But a well-rounded human should understand at least some of the ...

Abstract: In this article, the state estimation of distributed parameter systems using the modulating function method is extended to systems of two or higher spatial dimensions with spatially varying ...
