Sea ice covers around 7% of the surface of our planet. This article explores how researchers use mathematical models to study the changes taking place in the polar seas and how these might affect the global climate.
Simple models which help us to investigate how epidemics grow and die out.
Many natural systems appear to be in equilibrium until suddenly a critical point is reached, setting up a mudslide or an avalanche or an earthquake. In this project, students will use a simple simulation game to investigate the properties of such systems.
How would you design the tiering of seats in a stadium so that all spectators have a good view?
Investigate how avalanches occur and how they can be controlled
Could nanotechnology be used to see if an artery is blocked? Or is this just science fiction?
Maths is everywhere in the world! Take a look at these images. What mathematics can you see?
How would you go about estimating populations of dolphins?
