If you think 3D printing is only good for benchies, key chains, and printer parts, you might enjoy the paper by two physicists from Wesleyan University and the University of Gothenburg. Lord Kelvin — ...

A strange shape described by mathematician Lord Kelvin in 1871 and predicted to behave unusually in a fluid has finally been fully studied in the real world thanks to 3D printing – and it seems Kelvin ...

For anyone who thinks camera scanning is too fiddly, Valoi keeps making it easier and easier with a new easy Precision Framing Helicoid accessory that looks like it will solve the headache of trying ...

Soap films were a favorite tool of 18th century mathematicians, and Frenchman Jean Meusnier used them in 1776 to prove a fundamental example in geometric optimization: An ordinary two-dimensional ...
