Todos los años hay varios terremotos en el planeta Tierra con una gran pérdida de vidas humanas. Durante un terremoto, la mayoría de nosotros experimenta las vibraciones en la superficie de la Tierra debidas a la propagación de las ondas sísmicas por la corteza. La pregunta principal que se quiere responder con este proyecto es: ¿Cómo afectan las vibraciones sísmicas a las estructuras de ingeniería civil como puentes, presas o edificios?

These images were created using SURFER. I first started playing around with this wonderful tool when I read about it in ‘Spektrum der Wissenschft’ and took part in the Surfer competition 2008.

Sangaku were colorful tablets found in Shinto shrines in Japan during the Edo period and posing mathematical problems. They related to both principle of Euclidean geometry and more advanced mathematical issues requiring calculus and affine transformations. They were also original examples of widespread use of visualization in the teaching and appreciation of mathematics.

Polyhedra refer to a variety of related constructs, some geometric, others purely algebraic or abstract. Often named after the number of faces they have, most polyhedra are symmetrical and provides a geometric perspective for problems in linear programming. The following is an attempt at blending pure programming visualization and geometry.

Pattern recognition deal with issues in cognitive and neuroscience as well as mathematics, particularly in CAD systems, optical recognition and image analysis. From abstract outline classification to the addition of shapes, forms and color scheme and visualization techniques it allows a better understanding of the complexity of mapping and recognition in the visual environment.
