Teaching Kindergarten and Elementary School Mathematics
As much fun as Nitinol, FEA, moire interferometry, medical devices and all the other cool stuff I get to work on is, nothing is [...]
Recent Moire Interferometry Experiments
We dusted off the interferometer recently to perform some new experiments on Nitinol. The photo on the left shows our four beam phase shifted [...]
Biomimetics/Biomimicry: State of the Art
It has been ten years since I first read Janine’s book and I am pleased to see that the field of Biomimicry, Biomimetics---or whatever [...]
Medical Imaging Data and Computational Fluid Dynamics
Significant advances are being made in simulations for medical devices. The picture on the left, shared with me by Dr. Tina Morrison, former post-graduate student in [...]
