The engineering behind Evolutor

Futurum

We have come a long way since Darwin published his concepts, and engineers and scientists have borrowed the concept of ‘survival of the fittest’ and applied it to engineering biological systems for industrial applications. How these factories are designed and constructed is still a puzzle to engineers and scientists,” explains Tuck.

Plant polymers as plastic alternatives

Futurum

I strongly believe that the world needs engineers with strong critical thinking skills, who know how to ask questions, understand bias, construct and evaluate arguments, and think comprehensively and creatively. I love mathematics, problem solving and logical thinking. This goes hand in hand with ethical thinking.

Imaging the invisible: how can research software and imaging techniques help scientists study the things we can’t see?

Futurum

Scientific model — a conceptual or mathematical representation of a real-world phenomenon that allows scientists to study the phenomenon in more detail. Scientists can now turn their theories into mathematical models, which can then be expressed in software as simulations. Chemistry with Dr Nicole Hondow and Stuart Micklethwaite.

The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

Then for each function (or other construct in the language) there are pages that explain the function, with extensive examples. One new construct added in Version 13.1 —and And now there’s a way to specify that, using Threaded : In a sense, Threaded is part of a new wave of symbolic constructs that have “ambient effects” on lists.

A 50-Year Quest: My Personal Journey with the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram

It’s a story I’ve told elsewhere , but one of the important elements for our purposes here is that in designing the system I called SMP (for “Symbolic Manipulation Program”) I ended up digging deeply into the foundations of computation, and its connections to areas like mathematical logic. I wrote about SMP.
