Engineering is about more than just churning through equations, and Chuck Stricker wants people to realize that. That talent in math is the defining trait needed to become an engineer is a myth that ...

Modeling how cars deform in a crash, how spacecraft responds to extreme environments, or how bridges resist stress could be made thousands of times faster thanks to new artificial intelligence that ...

Long before robots could run or cars could drive themselves, mathematicians contemplated a simple mathematical question. They figured it out, then laid it to rest—with no way of knowing that the ...
