Cellular Automata (CA) are usually modeled in a Cartesian domain with periodic boundary conditions - which is a torus topology. If instead a geodesic grid is used, the positive curvature of the sphere makes itself known in the form of pinch-points, discontinuities, or poles. The icoasahedron dis...

. The arrows show minus the shift — which can be thought of as the velocity of flow of space. The beginning of the inspiral is shown, and then the last several orbits, the merger of the two holes, and the vibrational ringdown. The final hole does not look pefectly spherical because the computer ...

This video shows the full ground to air launch and altitude sequence of a research weather balloon with a VadoHD video camera attached to it. The balloon and payload went to an altitude between 80,000 ft and 100,000 ft. The camera is attached to the payload of a research weather balloon...

www.larouchepac.com Couched in discussion of curvature and tensor related concepts, the basement project discusses the progress of unraveling the discovery of Gauss’s orbit of ceres, centered around his transformation of the heliocentric view to the geocentric view of the orbit. In addition, the...

(played with a slide), 12 strings (violin, cello), and is based on the glissando. The instruments have been orchestrated in terms of corresponding high and low registers, that reflect each other as though being viewed through a mirror. The exterior shape of Disney Hall informed the shape of the ...

In this lecture, Leonard Susskind continues his discussion of Einstein’s theory of general relativity. He also gives a broad overview of the field of tensor calculus and it's relation to the curvature and geometry of space-time. This Stanford Continuing Studies course is the fourth of a six-quar...

Freshman Organic Chemistry (CHEM 125) Professor McBride expands on the recently introduced concept of the wave function by illustrating the relationship of the magnitude of the curvature of the wave function to the kinetic energy of the system, as well as the relationship of the square of the wa...
