Fourier analysis and numerical methods have long played a pivotal role in the solution of differential equations across science and engineering. By decomposing complex functions into sums of ...

Optical systems employ a rich array of physical effects which are described by well-understood equations. However, for all but the simplest devices these equations are typically too complex to permit ...

in the 60s, mathematician and meteorologist Edward Lorenz hypothesized that there is a limit to how far in advance precise weather prediction is possible. A new study proved that he was right. A team ...
