ScienceDaily—Math News
- AI-based math: Individualized support for schoolchildrenThis link opens in a new window Researchers have developed an AI-based learning system that recognizes strengths and weaknesses in mathematics by tracking eye movements with a webcam to generate problem-solving hints. This enables teachers to provide significantly more children with individualized support. Mar 10, 2025
- Scientists develop open-source software for modeling soft materialsThis link opens in a new window A team of researchers created Morpho, an open-source programmable environment that enables researchers and engineers to conduct shape optimization and design for soft materials. Applications can be for anything from artificial hearts to robot materials that mimic flesh and soft tissue. Mar 5, 2025
- Student refines 100-year-old math problem, expanding wind energy possibilitiesThis link opens in a new window An engineering student refined a century-old math problem into a simpler, more elegant form, making it easier to use and explore. Divya Tyagi's work expands research in aerodynamics, unlocking new possibilities in wind turbine design that Hermann Glauert, a British aerodynamicist and the original author, did not consider.
