One useful feature of the Python math module is quick access to mathematical constants. You can make Python more effective as a scientific calculator by using these same functions with numerical ...

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

Abstract: In this paper, we consider a dynamical system whose trajectory is a result of minimizing a multiphase cost function. The multiphase cost function is assumed to be a weighted sum of specified ...

The Leidenfrost effect is known for droplets dancing on hot pans, but its inverse is even stranger. This documentary explores the science and mystery behind the discovery.
