1+ mon, 3+ week ago (238+ words) The Times of India Bees may have helped solve one of solar energy's biggest problems According to a report by Ecoportal, engineers have developed a new type of solar panel using the honeycomb pattern that bees have mastered for millions…...
Triangular analog of the squircle
4+ mon, 6+ day ago (165+ words) TimF left a comment on my guitar pick post saying the image was a “squircle-ish analog for an isosceles triangle.” That made me wonder what a more direct analog of the squircle might be for a triangle. A squircle is…...
Heartwarming: The Thousands Of Texts And Photos Exchanged Between This High School Math Teacher And Her Male Student Were About The Pythagorean Theorem
4+ mon, 1+ week ago (278+ words) Looking to feel all warm and fuzzy? Well, here you go: Awwwww. Just a dedicated teacher working overtime off the clock to help a student understand a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry! When 16-year-old Reno High School student Bryan Clark’s…...
Free Nanite-Inspired 3DGS Renderer For Unreal Engine
5+ mon, 3+ week ago (243+ words) NanoGS aims to render large 3DGS efficiently while keeping VRAM usage low. Rendering really large Gaussian Splatting files is always challenging. To do it in real-time, you have to manage VRAM carefully, sort millions of splats efficiently, and only draw the…...
Two Twisty Shapes Resolve a Centuries-Old Topology Puzzle
7+ mon, 3+ week ago (1468+ words) For the first time, mathematicians have found an example of a compact doughnutlike surface (as seen above) that shares its local geometric information with another surface, despite having a completely different global structure. Imagine if our skies were always filled…...

8+ mon, 3+ week ago (990+ words) Part of MathsGeometry and measure Use trigonometry to find: In these formulae, the Greek letter θ (theta) is often used as a symbol for an unknown angle, and the formulae also include the names of the three sides of the…...
Perfect Shuffle: The Strange Fractals Hidden in a Simple Algorithm
9+ mon, 2+ day ago (942+ words) I have always been fascinated by elementary algorithms that create complex patterns. There is something fundamentally intriguing about such algorithms. One such algorithm is the Perfect Shuffle. Let's explore its unusual properties and create some striking fractals using this algorithm....
A hyperbolic triangle with three cusps
9+ mon, 2+ week ago (236+ words) In spherical geometry, the interior angles of a triangle add up to more than π. And in fact you can determine the area of a spherical triangle by how much the angle sum exceeds π. On a sphere of radius…...
Mathematicians Make Surprising Breakthrough in 3D Geometry with ‘Noperthedron’
10+ mon, 2+ week ago (33+ words) Prince Rupert of the Rhine first asked this question in the 17th century, and he soon found out the answer is yes. Later, mathematicians found more and more three-dimensional shapes that eventually......
