…shows that sea-surface temperatures during the Pliocene Warm Period were warmer than sea-surface temperatures today. By studying the causes of past warming, and trying to figure out how the temperature…
…to simulate the interaction of liquids and gases with surfaces defined by boundary conditions. Today, almost every branch of engineering rely on CFD simulations for conceptual design and product design….
I checked our Web log today and the statistics showed that the Molecular Workbench software (Java version) has been downloaded for 1,014,439 times since 2005. This number doesn’t include those…
Energy3D is a free, open-source tool we are developing from scratch to empower students to design, make, and test energy-efficient model houses. Today we had some students design and make…
…work (see Ohm’s Law in Wikipedia). Ironically, today’s students seem to be more familiar with Ohm’s Law than Fourier’s Law. So the circuit analogy is used in textbooks to help…
…Earth that we have today with predetermined outcomes that would inhibit student exploration. View a cross-section of a plate boundary in Tectonic Explorer*. Our goal is to give students the…
…it is the learning analytics that concludes the research. Today we are seeing a lot of learner data, but we probably have no idea what they actually mean. We can…
…(calculator-based labs). Today, a huge variety of inexpensive probes is available. Probe software is used on laptops and mobile devices in schools. Probes provide opportunities for students to collect and…
…back paleoclimatic conditions that existed thousands of years ago, when many of today’s deserts were wet.” Previously, climate research has focused on Earth’s polar regions and forests. It is important…
…— really a good idea today when the entire house is heated by a modern distributed heating system? In terms of energy efficiency, the advice from science is that it…
