Scientific discoveries can last for thousands of years, and technological inventions can be kept fresh for only a few decades, and they will be obsolete in a few hundred years. Such as electronic product updates, quite quickly. Life cycles are short, as are smart cars, smartphones, etc. Of course, the technological limit may also reach hundreds of years. Even scientific discoveries are not permanent. Tens of thousands of years later, people will have a new leap in understanding the universe and natural laws of natural phenomena. For example, people are on the moon and on Mars, and the human wisdom finds that the invention of wisdom is unbelievable. For us people on earth, we have become uncivilized ancient human beings. The intelligence quotient of lunar humans is dozens and hundreds of times that of our current Earth humans. The scientific discovery of that time was unimaginable. Mathematical, physical and chemical, natural, agricultural, medical, industrial, legal and commercial, literature, history, philosophy, classics, education, etc., everything will be renovated and mutated.
math
The science of studying quantitative relationships and spatial forms in the real world. It is produced and developed in the long-term practical activities of human beings. Originated from counting and measurement, with the development of productive forces, more and more quantitative research on natural phenomena is required; at the same time, due to the development of mathematics itself, it has a high degree of abstraction, rigorous logic and wide applicability. It is roughly divided into two categories: basic mathematics (also known as pure mathematics) and applied mathematics. The former includes branches such as mathematical logic, number theory, algebra, geometry, topology, function theory, functional analysis and differential equations; the latter includes branches such as probability theory, mathematical statistics, computational mathematics, operations research and combinatorial mathematics
■■■Basic technical sciences, mainly including civil engineering, electromechanical engineering, chemical engineering, information engineering, aerospace engineering, ocean engineering, mining engineering, medical engineering, materials engineering, computational engineering, agricultural engineering, energy engineering, lunar engineering, Mars engineering , life engineering and so on.

Modern mathematics is a edifice built from a series of abstract structures. It is based on the innate belief of human beings in the inevitability and accuracy of mathematical reasoning, and it is the concentrated expression of confidence in the capacity, origin and power of human reason. Deductive reasoning based on self-evident axioms is absolutely reliable, that is, if an axiom is true, then the conclusions deduced from it must also be true. By applying these seemingly clear, correct, and perfect logics, mathematicians The conclusions reached are clearly unquestionable and irrefutable. Naturally, mathematics is constantly developing and alienating, and eternal mathematics is also unrealistic, mainly due to the changes in the logical thinking structure of the human brain, and mathematics will continue to mutate or alienate. Mathematical logic, natural logic, image logic, hybrid compound logic.
In fact, the above-mentioned understanding of the essential characteristics of mathematics is carried out from the aspects of the source, the way of existence, and the level of abstraction of mathematics, and the essential characteristics of mathematics are mainly seen from the results of mathematical research. Common general-purpose mathematical software packages include: Matlab, Mathematica and Maple, where Matlab is good at numerical calculation, while Mathematica and Maple are good at symbolic operation and formula derivation
(2) Dedicated math packages include:
Drawing software: MathCAD, Tecplot, IDL, Surfer, Origin, SmartDraw, DSP2000
Numerical computing class: Matcom, DataFit, S-Spline, Lindo, Lingo, O-Matrix, Scilab, Octave
Numerical calculation library: linpack/lapack/BLAS/GERMS/IMSL/CXML
Finite element calculation classes: ANSYS, MARC, PARSTRAN, FLUENT, FEMLAB, FlexPDE, Algor, COSMOS, ABAQUS, ADINA
Mathematical statistics: GAUSS, SPSS, SAS, Splus
Obviously, the result (as a deductive system of the theory) does not reflect the whole picture of mathematics, another very important aspect that constitutes the whole of mathematics is the process of mathematical research, and in general, mathematics is a dynamic process, a " The experimental process of thinking" is the abstract generalization process of mathematical truth. The logical deductive system is a natural result of this process. In the process of mathematical research, the richness of mathematical objects, the invention of mathematics by human beings, "Mathematics is a language", mathematical activities are social, it is in the historical process of the development of human civilization, human beings understand nature, adapt to It is the crystallization of a high degree of wisdom that transforms nature and improves self and society. Mathematics has a key influence on the way of thinking of human beings. It is of great significance. Mathematics, physics and chemistry, mathematics is the first priority, and it is not an exaggeration.
Based on the above understanding of the essential characteristics of mathematics, people also discussed the specific characteristics of mathematics from different aspects. The more general view is that mathematics has the characteristics of abstraction, precision and extensive application, among which the most essential characteristic is abstraction. In addition, from the perspective of the process of mathematical research and the relationship between mathematics and other disciplines, mathematics also has imagery, plausibility, and quasi-experience. The "falsifiability" feature of Matlab is suitable for the engineering world, especially toolboxes, fast code, and many integrations with third-party software, such as optimization toolboxes
The most obvious third party is comsol
Mathematica syntax is excellent, so good that it comes with almost all programming paradigms
. The understanding of the characteristics of mathematics is also characteristic of the times. For example, regarding the rigor of mathematics, there are different standards in each period of mathematics historical development, from Euclidean geometry to Lobachevsky geometry to the Hilbert axiom system. , the evaluation criteria for rigor vary widely, especially when Gödel proposed and proved the "incompleteness theorem... Later, it was found that even axiomatic, a rigorous scientific method that was once highly regarded, was flawed. Therefore, the rigor of mathematics is shown in the history of mathematics development and has a relativity. Regarding the plausibility of mathematics,
◆◆◆ Mathematics is the tool and means of physical research. Some research methods of physics have strong mathematical ideas, so the process of learning physics can also improve mathematical cognition. Mathematical logic is the study of symbolic and mathematical logic in formal logic.

The Foundation Antoni Tàpies is a Museum and cultural centre of Barcelona. It is mainly dedicated to the life and work of the catalan painter Antoni Tàpies. The Foundation was founded by the artist himself in 1984. The idea was to create a centre for the study and promotion of contemporary art. It has one of the most comprehensive collections of Tapies, data by the painter and his wife Teresa. It has more than 300 works of all artistic periods and opened in June 1990. In addition to the permanent exhibitions dedicated to the Barcelona painter, the Museum carries out numerous temporary exhibitions that cover all artistic genres, and the "Combinatorial arts" project where the Museum blends to the Internet and attempts to create educational content, exhibitions and research. There is also a club of friends of the Foundation. The building is an old modernist printing classified as a monument of national interest.
Building
Headquarters are located in the Eixample neighbourhood in a building modernist architect Lluís domènech i Montaner. Projected in1879, it was built between 1881 and 1885. Its facade was the first of the Eixample to combine bare brick with iron forged into the urban fabric. It served as headquarters to the Édition Montaner i Simón, Ramon Montaner (parent of the architect) cleanliness i Francesc Simon, where worked with writers such as Pere Calders and Josep Soler Vidal, among others.
Between 1986 and 1990 it was restored by the architects Roser Amadó and Lluís domènech Girbau who transformed to accommodate the Foundation. Tapies realized sculpture Núvol i cadira (cloud and basin) which adorns the facade of the building and who has been transformed into a symbol of the Foundation. In 1997, this seat was declared historical monument. In 2010, the Foundation reopened its doors after two years of work by Iñaki Ábalos architecture and his pupil Abalos i Sentkiewicz. The emblematic work of the opening exhibition was Mitjosculpture, located on the terrace of the Foundation, according to a former project of Tapies following a command in 1992 of the Ayuntamiento of Barcelona to decorate the oval Sale in the national Palace of Montjuic, seat of the MNAC. The underground of the building House the private collection of the painter, composed of works of all kinds and all backgrounds, among others:Francisco de Goya, Zurbarán, Picasso, Joan Miró, Marcel Duchamp, Georges Braque, Hans Arp, Paul Klee, Max Ernst, Vasily Kandinski, Willem de Kooning, etc. as well as parts of African and pre-Columbian art, medieval, archaeological and various books: incunabula manuscripts, a Coptic ofe century xvibook and a bible of xve siècle

Happy Burger in Mariposa claims to have the “The Largest Menu in the Sierra.” If so, it gets there through a combinatorial explosion of meats/cheeses/french fry styles on a hamburger and fries.
I ordered a BBQ steakburger medium-rare. As you can see, it came out rare which disgusted Caitlin to no end. It was a little hard to eat since the beef wasn’t ground but it tasted much better than it looks.
Filters: none
Adjustments: manual white balance, medium sharpening
Issues: Because it was late, it was already dark. I stopped up the aperture for this macro which means the depth of field is miserable.

Sudoku (Japanese: 数独, About this sound listen (help·info)?); English pronunciation: /suːˈdoʊkuː/ soo-DOH-koo) is a logic-based, combinatorial number-placement puzzle. The objective is to fill a 9×9 grid with digits so that each column, each row, and each of the nine 3×3 sub-grids that compose the grid (also called "boxes", "blocks", "regions", or "sub-squares") contains all of the digits from 1 to 9. The puzzle setter provides a partially completed grid, which typically has a unique solution.
Completed puzzles are always a type of Latin square with an additional constraint on the contents of individual regions. For example, the same single integer may not appear twice in the same 9x9 playing board row or column or in any of the nine 3x3 subregions of the 9x9 playing board.
The puzzle was popularized in 1986 by the Japanese puzzle company Nikoli, under the name Sudoku, meaning single number. It became an international hit in 2005.
The Foundation Antoni Tàpies is a Museum and cultural centre of Barcelona. It is mainly dedicated to the life and work of the catalan painter Antoni Tàpies. The Foundation was founded by the artist himself in 1984. The idea was to create a centre for the study and promotion of contemporary art. It has one of the most comprehensive collections of Tapies, data by the painter and his wife Teresa. It has more than 300 works of all artistic periods and opened in June 1990. In addition to the permanent exhibitions dedicated to the Barcelona painter, the Museum carries out numerous temporary exhibitions that cover all artistic genres, and the "Combinatorial arts" project where the Museum blends to the Internet and attempts to create educational content, exhibitions and research. There is also a club of friends of the Foundation. The building is an old modernist printing classified as a monument of national interest.
Building
Headquarters are located in the Eixample neighbourhood in a building modernist architect Lluís domènech i Montaner. Projected in1879, it was built between 1881 and 1885. Its facade was the first of the Eixample to combine bare brick with iron forged into the urban fabric. It served as headquarters to the Édition Montaner i Simón, Ramon Montaner (parent of the architect) cleanliness i Francesc Simon, where worked with writers such as Pere Calders and Josep Soler Vidal, among others.
Between 1986 and 1990 it was restored by the architects Roser Amadó and Lluís domènech Girbau who transformed to accommodate the Foundation. Tapies realized sculpture Núvol i cadira (cloud and basin) which adorns the facade of the building and who has been transformed into a symbol of the Foundation. In 1997, this seat was declared historical monument. In 2010, the Foundation reopened its doors after two years of work by Iñaki Ábalos architecture and his pupil Abalos i Sentkiewicz. The emblematic work of the opening exhibition was Mitjosculpture, located on the terrace of the Foundation, according to a former project of Tapies following a command in 1992 of the Ayuntamiento of Barcelona to decorate the oval Sale in the national Palace of Montjuic, seat of the MNAC. The underground of the building House the private collection of the painter, composed of works of all kinds and all backgrounds, among others:Francisco de Goya, Zurbarán, Picasso, Joan Miró, Marcel Duchamp, Georges Braque, Hans Arp, Paul Klee, Max Ernst, Vasily Kandinski, Willem de Kooning, etc. as well as parts of African and pre-Columbian art, medieval, archaeological and various books: incunabula manuscripts, a Coptic ofe century xvibook and a bible of xve siècle

"Influx of visitors for Mathematics Dept.
The number of academic visitors to the Department of Mathematics reached its peak in June, 1988, when there were nine visitors simultaneously in the Department.
Professor John Borwein, from Dalhousie University, Halifax, Dr. Simon Fitzpatrick, from the University of Auckland, and Dr. G. de Barra, from the University of London, are functional analysts who came to collaborate with Professor John Giles.
Dr Robin Tucker, from the University of Lancaster, Professor J. Bicak, from Charles University, in Prague, and Mr Manash Mukherjee work in the general relativity and quantum theory. Dr Tucker is visiting the Department for six months and, in addition to research work, he is also taking part in teaching. Mr Mukherjee is his PhD student in a final stage of postgraduate studies.
Professor Bicak is one of the invited speakers at the Fifth Marcel Grossmann Meeting to be held in Perth in August. He stopped in Newcastle to take part in a series of research seminars about muons, black holes, and gauge theoretical structure of space-time organised by Professor Paul Smrz, as well as to give a general talk about life and work of Albert Einstein in Prague.
Dr Jack Gray has been visiting the Department of Mathematics for four months. He is the Director of the Industrial Mathematics Group at the University of New south Wales. Dr Gray was invited to help the Mathematics Department to establish contacts with industry and create an industrial mathematics consulting centre.
Dr Marvin Bishop, from the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, Manhattan College, New York, is working with Professor Clive Croxton on the structure and dynamics of polymer ring systems.
Mr Jim MacDougall is a visiting lecturer from the University of Prince Edward Island. He is spending his study leave in Newcastle and he works with Professor Roger Eggleton on geometrical representation of combinatorial graphs, and contributes significantly to the teaching effort of the Department.
The periods spend in Newcastle by the visitors vary from two weeks to over one year. The high number of visitors is partly due to the fact that in 1988 there are several international conferences held in Australia covering fields in which members of the Department of Mathematics achieved international reputation.

Aldo Gael Carranza, 2017 Dean's Honored Graduate
Pure Mathematics
Aldo Carranza is a Dean’s Honored Graduate in Mathematics. He is graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with a Certificate in Computational Science and Engineering and a Certificate in Elements of Computing. He is being recognized for his academic excellence and his honors thesis, Analysis of Belief Propagation on k-medioids Clustering via Linear Programming Relaxation.
In his thesis, Aldo is investigating a series of algorithms that can be used to solve a broad family of combinatorial optimization problems – tools which can, for example, identify which sets of nodes in a network can best act as a group to supply resources or pass messages to the network. He has already uncovered a theoretical equivalence between limit cycles in one key algorithm (the “Max-Product Belief Propagation algorithm”) and the corresponding behavior in any other optimization algorithm.
Aldo exhausted the undergraduate curriculum in mathematics courses by his junior year, and has moved on to graduate level work. In his coursework and research he has increasingly moved towards topics with connections to other sciences, ranging from physical applications (partial differential equations, harmonic analysis) to more computational ones (linear programming, packing problems). Aldo’s rigorous and interdisciplinary approach to research allows him to study topics in wide-ranging areas from medical imaging to artificial intelligence to financial mathematics, all within a rigorous mathematical and computational setting.
In addition, Aldo has served the Math Department as a Learning Assistant, Research Assistant and an important mentor and role model to other students. Next year, Aldo will continue his research at the Institute for Computational Science and Engineering (ICME) at Stanford University with a GEM Ph.D. Fellowship.

Spaccanapoli is a group from Naples - historically a crossroads for the cultures of the whole Mediterranean region. Their music is rooted in traditions that go back further and deeper than Catholic rituals to the pre- Christian rites of Dionysus. This is the expression of the working people- pulsing drums, impassioned vocals, the wild dances of the Tarantella adn Tammurriata - the vibrant energy of the street carnival celebrated in the shade of the smouldering Vesuvius. Naples and its surroundings own an astonishing patrimony of folk culture:the popular religion on which it is pivoted, is clearly a catholic overlap on pre-Christian rites, and during its collective moments, it still retains the ancient vitalise of the dionisyan cults, providing the faithful from the low classes with an articulated and rich symbolism. Music, together with dance, is an essential part of all this: whether it is Carnival with its wild Tarantella (the ancient individual dance of possession) or the spring festival for Madonna di Castello, one of the many Mediterranean Great Mothers, with its exhausting Tammurriata (a dance performed in couples, within a circle of people while people can really sing in a high strangled style up at the top the of human voice on the steady rhythm of the Tammorra the big traditional drum), a whole lot of different forms of traditional music are featured and, like for every traditional culture, music and dance, as ancient languages of the body, help to express and control (allowing to lose and recover identity) any kind of tension within the ritual. Since the 70s ,with the advent of a late heavy industrialisation and mass culture, the ancient mythical and ritual element, belonging to a still pre-modern society, has begun partly to disappear and partly to be refunctionalized , convening new and more suitable meanings for the anguish of the anonymous way of life of a post-modern world. The songs and the music contained in this album are not a sample of Neapolitan traditional music and they are not a proposal of re-arranged folk songs; that has already decently been done by ethnomusicologist and later on by the groups of the folk music revival. The song of this album are about folk culture and how it is dramatically undergoing mutation. Some of them come from the repertoire of E Zezi workers group. Since 1974E Zezi, mainly formed by workers of the automobile factories of the industrial belt of Naples, have been singing protest songs composed in the idiom of traditional music, giving to the more one hundred people that have joined the group during the years, the change to express their discomfort and rage. All the member of this new band come from E Zezi ; the name theyve chosen Spaccanapoli is meant as provocation: is the name of an old street of Greek origin in the centre of Naples, which has been reduced to a touristic symbol but were still now authentic folklore flourishes. There new songs try to describe some aspects of folk culture, and a possible contemporary meanings of it , emphasizing the research in to the Neapolitan traditional languages, both for music and lyrics to display their plasticity and their combinatorial skills.

This montage was created by pasting together the mirror images of a micromixer, inside a frame of the appropriate shade of blue so that the blue looks like it's a fluid connecting to the mixer. The interesting part of the montage is that it shows a physical impossibility -- this pattern cannot be created with a real mixer.
