Violin makers, aka luthiers, traditionally learn from hands-on experience how to craft parts and select materials to shape an ...

Theory, computation, and simulation are foundational to modern energy research. Theoretical understanding reveals why materials and systems behave as they do, predicting performance before experiments ...

Researchers at the University of British Columbia Okanagan have published a mathematical argument that, they say, rules out the possibility that this universe is a computer simulation. The claim, made ...

Computational electromagnetics applies advanced numerical methods to solve Maxwell’s equations in complex geometries, enabling accurate simulations of electromagnetic phenomena across diverse scales.

Computational models and simulations have had an important role in engineering analysis since as far back as the 1960s. It is widely recognized that the use of modeling and simulation tools can make ...

A recent study published in Evolution and Human Behavior provides evidence that the social benefits of playing games depend ...

I was invited by the American Humanist Association to present the arguments of my paper “Natural Evil and the Simulation Hypothesis” at the national conference this past weekend. It was fun: I met a ...
