Abstract: Visible light positioning (VLP) is endowed with high accuracy in indoor scenarios. However, the positioning algorithms require plenty of beacon light-emitting diode (LED) coordinates stored ...

In this video, learn how to solve boundary value differential equations using the finite difference method in Python. We break down the mathematical theory behind differential equations and transform ...

The most high-risk conditions for fires are increasingly happening across countries at the same time, making resulting wildfires even more challenging to tackle, new research reveals. Scientists from ...

Efficient drilling in shale reservoirs requires detailed 3-dimensional (3D) horizontal well trajectories. An orthogonal-arc trajectory (OAT) method assumes a single constant curvature in the curved ...

The following is an extract from our Lost in Space-Time newsletter. Each month, we hand over the keyboard to a physicist or mathematician to tell you about fascinating ideas from their corner of the ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

If one has a set of observables (z1, ··· , zm) which are bound in a relation with certain parameters (a1, ··· , an) by an equation &zgr;(z1, ··· , a1, ···) = 0, one frequently has the problem of ...

A startling milestone has been reached in Florida's war against the invasive Burmese pythons eating their way across the Everglades. The Conservancy of Southwest Florida reports it has captured and ...

Climate change is increasing the risk of wildfires in many regions of the world. This is due partly to specific weather conditions -- known as fire weather -- that facilitate the spread of wildfires.
