In inertial confinement fusion, a capsule of fuel begins at temperatures near zero and pressures close to vacuum. When lasers compress that fuel to trigger fusion, the material heats up to millions of ...

Using robotic fins, researchers at the University of California, Riverside have learned how stingrays are able to swim with ...

A tiny worm turns static electricity into a powerful weapon, launching itself through the air to catch flying prey.

In this tutorial, we use GlowScript VPython to build a dipole electric field simulation step by step. Learn how to model charges, compute field vectors, and create an interactive visualization that ...

Model electric flux through a cube using GlowScript. This short visualizes field vectors, surface normals, and how flux adds across each face—making Gauss’s Law feel intuitive with a clean interactive ...

Engineers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison uncovered a critical flaw in how lunar and Martian rovers are tested on Earth. Simulations revealed that test results have been misleading for decades ...

COMSOL Multiphysics version 6.4 accelerates engineering simulations and multiphysics models. Full GPU support across all physics delivers up to 5× speedups in benchmarks. COMSOL now supports GPU ...

Thomas Anderson – otherwise known as Neo – is walking up a flight of stairs when he sees a black cat shake itself and walk past a doorway. Then the moment seems to replay before his eyes. Just a touch ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

The true nature of our universe as been an open debate for millennia, and recently, scientists and philosophers have pondered whether it might be a hyper-realistic simulation perpetuated by some super ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...

A neural network is a machine learning model originally inspired by how the human brain works (Courtesy: Shutterstock/Jackie Niam) Precision measurements of theoretical parameters are a core element ...
