Just a short walk away from the Central station in Rotterdam we can find these triangels on the Weena. Just in case you want to see it for your self.

The Mathematical Bridge is the popular name of a wooden footbridge in the southwest of central Cambridge, England. It bridges the River Cam about one hundred feet northwest of Silver Street Bridge and connects two parts of Queens' College. Its official name is simply the Wooden Bridge or Queens' Bridge. It is a Grade II listed building.
The bridge was designed by William Etheridge and built by James Essex in 1749. It has been rebuilt on two occasions, in 1866 and in 1905, but has kept the same overall design. Although it appears to be an arch, it is composed entirely of straight timbers built to an unusually sophisticated engineering design, hence the name.
Mathematical explanation:
The arrangement of timbers is a series of tangents that describe the arc of the bridge, with radial members to tie the tangents together and triangulate the structure, making it rigid and self-supporting. This type of structure, technically tangent and radial trussing, is an efficient structural use of timber, and was also used for the timber supporting arches (centering) used for building stone bridges. Analysis of the design shows that the tangent members are almost entirely under compression, while the radial timbers are almost entirely subject to tension with very little bending stress, or to put it another way, the tangent and radial elements elegantly express the forces involved in arched construction.

The Mathematics Bridge in the hart of Cambridge during the first light of the day.
Even the mathmatic proovs it. So I want to wish you all a happy time and a good timewith your frinds and family <3
I attempted Robert J. Lang's Tree Frog pattern from his book "Origami Design Secrets - Mathmatical Methods for an Ancient Art". I folded this pattern fully expecting to not be able to complete it. And while I did have to make a few changes due to folding errors, I'm incredibly pleased with the end result. I will definitely be revisiting this pattern to make a crisper model. Maybe with foil paper if I can find 35x35cm sheets or larger?
...under the "mathmatical" bridge.
The bridge is wooden and although it looks curved it is constructed of straight timbers.
It was designed by William Etheridge and built by
James Essex in 1749.

The River Cam,
Cambridge, UK
The "Mathematical Bridge" is a wooden footbridge over the River Cam, that connects the two parts of the Queen's College in Cambridge. It appears to be arched but is made entirely of straight timbers (tangent and radial trussing). It was built in 1749 and was repaired and rebuilt in 1866 and 1905.
A model for the pattern of florets in the head of a sunflower was proposed by H. Vogel in 1979, This is expressed in polar coordinates
r = c \sqrt{n},
\theta = n \times 137.5^{\circ},
where θ is the angle, r is the radius or distance from the center, and n is the index number of the floret and c is a constant scaling factor. It is a form of Fermat's spiral. The angle 137.5° is related to the golden ratio (55/144 of a circular angle, where 55 and 144 are Fibonacci numbers) and gives a close packing of florets. This model has been used to produce computer graphics representations of sunflowers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunflower
I'm no mathmetician, but the graphic looks pretty close to the center of the sunflower.
Thanks for your visit and all of your support. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

MIMICRY is the new building of the Center for Life Sciences at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of the University of Groningen, designed by Rudy Uytenhaak.
The building consists of two diagonally sloping sections with green roofs which rise from ground level. From the fourth floor up to the ninth and highest floor, the two sections are combined by a bridge over the park. This three-part composition also influences the organisation of the three fields of research: botany, zoology and fundamental studies.

You quit, again and again, because of what you love. Because certain things you don't want to compromise, because certain people you can't bear to hurt. And you start, again and again, because who you are is what you hate. You need something to work when things fall down. If only words and desire could be all, and not the hopeless mathmatics that you obsess over but that never adds up.

Llevo gafas. Pero podría llevar monóculo perfectamente, porque el cristal derecho es neutro (sin graduación). Y he querido jugar con eso.
El libro habla sobre los grandes descubrimientos matemáticos de la historia. En este caso, está hablando de los avances de los antiguos egipcios con respecto al número π (deducidos a partir del Papiro Rhind (lo que se intuye en la imagen oscura superior); y el paso siguiente en lo que a precisión de π se refiere, que fue llevado a cabo por Arquímides, quien logró delimitar su valor entre 3,1410369 y 3,1427201.
Además, la "casualidad" ha querido que el día 26 tenga un motivo matemático: el 26 es el único número entero de cuantos existen que está entre un número al cuadrado (25) y un número al cubo (27).
La foto está tal cual sacada de cámara, salvo por un poco de contraste. Muy poquito.

I have photographed this house many times. One evening I was walking by and noticed that it looked even better at dusk.
.......but how far did I travel?
I struggled to work it out because the maths started involving cosines and other such mathmatical stuff that I just don't understand. Wish I'd listened to my Dad now!!!
Log entry / / Dr. Eli Vaston, Head Researcher:
"The Artifact, or Artifact SPA-281 as it's been formally catalogued, really is a remarkable object, I mean we have no idea what it is. Is it a weapon? Be f__ked if I know! We really have no idea what it does, but it's perfect - every curve mathmatically exact, every flat molecularly smooth, it's astonishing! We havn't been able to take it apart because whatever it is, it was made as a whole. There are no joins, no seams, it's perfectly sealed, and more ennoyingly, impervious to x-rays, gamma and even ultrasound! It's like whoever built it didn't want to share their secrets. The Artifact has two strange properties - the first, it emits nothing from the surface, not even thermal radiation. This makes it impossible to carbon-date. The other, and this is very odd - it weighs exactly three times as much upside down, than it does upright!
We found it in a cave on Sparta IV, by complete fluke! Sparta's extinct population was tribal and not technologically advanced at all, so it's likely not of Sparta IV or any other planet in the system for that matter.
What mysteries does the Artifact hold? I couldn't possibly fathom. It may not even be possible to study it in depth without damaging it or drilling at it, then again, considering the lack of wear, even that may not work.
If we ever decipher the glyphs on the "stock", speaking in weapon terms of course, it may bring us closer to a technological revolution, but in the mean time, Humanity remains ignorant to the full brilliance of this wonderous object.
Close entry."
Haha. So I figure there's a mathmatic equation for this.
Beards = Hot
Girls = Cute
Girls + Beards = Sexy :)
This equation is just a joke.
I mixed purple paint black paint and yellow paint for this haha. Hope you guys like this shot. I know my parents think I'm crazy. I love paint and being silly.

The Galleria Italia runs almost an entire city block. It is an extraordinary space and one of the defining images of Frank Gehry's transformation of the AGO. For anyone who grew up in Canada, Gehry's use of glue laminated beams would be both familiar and new.
Our Daily Challenge - Homophone
A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but with a different meaning.
I've recently bought my little boy some chalk as a reward for doing some 'learning' during the summer holidays.
To avoid him dropping behind at school we are completing a summer reading challenge, doing 'mathletics' on the computer and keeping a daily scrapbook of our activities.
I'm hoping that the practice will enable him to make a good start back at school in September and help him progress!
He has been using the patio as a drawing board with his chalk and I thought that I'd join in the fun!

Maths and geometry 1950s style.
A book of various tables, a slide rule and a set of technical drawing instruments (for geometry)
In my school, we were not allowed to use a slide rule until we reached the 6th Form (Seniors in US, I think). Before that it was those horrific books of tables!
