The motion of rigid spherical particles suspended in a low Reynolds number fluid can be related to the forces, torques and stresslets acting upon them by 22 scalar resistance functions, commonly notated $X^A_{11}$, $X^A_{12}$, $Y^A_{11}$, etc. Near-f...

Computing has revolutionised the study of complex nonlinear systems, both by allowing us to solve previously intractable models and through the ability to visualise solutions in different ways. Using ubiquitous computing infrastructure, we provide a... Read More about VisualPDE: Rapid Interactive Simulations of Partial Differential Equations.

Going round in circles: Geometry in the early years (2023)
Journal Article
Oughton, R. H., Wheadon, D. M., Bolden, D. S., Nichols, K., Fearn, S., Darwin, S., …Townsend, A. (2023). Going round in circles: Geometry in the early years. Mathematics teaching, 286, 29-34

The research described here came from a collaboration between university-based mathematicians and early years (EY) educators. The project emerged naturally, driven by the felt need of the EY educators to develop a broader understanding and appreciati... Read More about Going round in circles: Geometry in the early years.
