IAP - The Science of Knots
| Thu 30-Jan-2020 | 18:30-20:00 |
Description
Meet in 66-144
Speaker: Vishal Prakash Patil. Phd student at MIT.
"Mathematicians and engineers from MIT have used color-changing fibers to help develop a mathematical model that can predict the stability of a knot. By combining the theoretical with the empirical, the new approach can explain why one knot is better for a specific application than another."
