Glider pilots often fly faster than powered aircraft and race round 500km circuits, just seconds apart. This programme examines the development of gliding from the 1930s to the present and explores some of...
Shows the results of many of the most basic experiments on the behaviour of bodies carried out using the air track. The air track is used by applied mathematicians to study the effects of bodies under the...
Discusses the transverse and longitudinal stability of ships, using a mixture of graphics, tank model demonstrations and footage of real ship at sea and in port. Stability is governed by the internal...
The structures of medieval stone cathedrals and bridges relied on principles of statics. John Trapp examines the development of the design of arches in the cathedrals of Ely in England and Chartres in...
An overview of some uses for linear transformations, rotations in particular, and how they rely on matrix manipulation. Case studies include IKEA kitchens, news graphics and RAF cockpit research.
Video, audio and software package comprising 83 self-study modules for introductory physics and related mathematics. It is designed as a resource from which a variety of flexible-entry, self-study courses...
Thirty-two self-study modules, with 18 titles for Apple Macintosh platforms and 21 for PC, on mathematics for science and engineering students, each covering a separate topic. Approximately 5 hours of...
Recording of a lecture given by Professor Peter Saunders as part of the London Mathematical Society’s Popular Lecture Series. Mathematics can be applied to biology in its own right, not just as a sort of...
A short video introduces the problem of understanding population growth over time in the UK and Mexico, and the logarithm needed to solve it is explained in an accompanying animation. NB This is just one...
Video recording of a 60-minute talk by Professor Albert Bartlett based on his paper, "Forgotten Fundamentals of the Energy Crisis," originally published in the American Journal of Physics, and revised in the...
