Mathematics From Scratch: Learning With Coding, Kimberly Beck, Jessica F. Shumway, Jody Clarke-Midura Feb 2022

Mathematics From Scratch: Learning With Coding, Kimberly Beck, Jessica F. Shumway, Jody Clarke-Midura

Publications

Implementing successful cross-curricular lessons is challenging but possible. Participants in this session will learn about a partnership between Utah State University, Cache County School District, and Stanford University that has designed and implemented successful integrated mathematics-computer science lessons. Attendees will hear from researchers and in-service teachers on their experience with designing and carrying out the curriculum and will have an opportunity to view and interact with the computer programs that students used.

Parametric Art, Shaun Pollard, Daanial Ahmad, Satyanand Singh Dec 2020

Parametric Art, Shaun Pollard, Daanial Ahmad, Satyanand Singh

Publications and Research

Lissajous curves, named after Jules Antoine Lissajous (1822-1880) are generated by the parametric equations ��=��������(����) and ��=��������(����) in its simplistic form. Others have studied these curves and their applications like Nathaniel Bowditch in 1815, and they are often referred to as Bowditch curves as well. Lissajous curves are found in engineering, mathematics, graphic design, physics, and many other backgrounds. In this project entitled “Parametric Art” this project will focus on analyzing these types of equations and manipulating them to create art. We will be investigating these curves by answering a series of questions that elucidate their purpose. Using Maple, which …


Designing International Institutions For Global Security, Rupayan Gupta Nov 2012

Designing International Institutions For Global Security, Rupayan Gupta

Fall 2012 Faculty Showcase

This talk focuses on the challenges inherent in designing international institutions for global security. The area of inquiry is interdisciplinary in nature, incorporating insights from economics, international relations, and mathematics (game theory). It is argued that this line of research would benefit from greater incorporation of techniques from bargaining theory and mechanism design. An agenda is proposed for interdisciplinary collaboration and some interesting results are presented from author’s published and ongoing research.


Differential Equations: A Universal Language, Bethany Caron May 2008

Differential Equations: A Universal Language, Bethany Caron

Senior Honors Projects

“Mathematics knows no races or geographic boundaries; for mathematics, the cultural world is one country.” – David Hilbert Differential equations are equations of one or more variables that involve both functions and their derivatives. These equations have many applications to the everyday “non-math” world, including modeling in engineering, physics, biology, chemistry, and economics. Differential equations are used when a situation arises where one needs to study a continuously changing quantity (expressed as a function) and its rate of change (expressed through its derivatives). The solutions to differential equations are functions that make the original equation hold true, and they can …
