Math to Touch
Math to Touch is a collection of 16 small apps, each of them opening a little mathematical world to be explored.
EUHFORIA: modeling the dangers of the sun
Enviado por Christine Verbeke el
The Earth’s magnetic field is protecting us from the dangers from outside. However, once in a while, it is possible that a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) launched from our Sun, has a large impact at Earth. Our model EUHFORIA helps with predicting the arrival times and impacts of such CMEs, so that we can prepare ourselves at Earth when a large CME is coming our way…
Drone in Greenland
Enviado por Guillaume Jouvet el
This 5-min-long film shows how scientists use drones to monitor and model the detachment of icebergs (calving) from the Bowdoin Glacier in Northwest Greenland.
Fractal Polyhedra
Enviado por Aubin Arroyo el
Take a few perfectly reflective spheres and arranged them at the vertices of a polyhedron.
Stereographic projection globe
Enviado por Henry Segerman el
A very small LED casts a shadow of a 3D printed globe onto a wall, illustrating stereographic projection. The globe can be freely rotated by a visitor, to see the changes in distortion of the map.
Mappae mundi
Explore the science of cartography and the geometry of map projections.
Symmetric solids - wireframe versions
Enviado por Oliver Labs el
In this hands-on set, MO-Labs presents its 3d print wireframe versions of some of the most classical symmetric solids for non-commercial use: platonic solids, archimedean solids, catalan solids.
MatchTheNet
MatchTheNet is a game about 3-dimensional polytopes for a single player. You will meet the five Platonic Solids and their best friends!

Algebraic Vibrations
Enviado por Bianca Violet el
We approximate and effectively simulate different characteristic patterns of a drum vibration using algebraic surfaces.
