Educational Studies in Mathematics, Vol. 75, No. 2 (November 2010), pp. 191-212 (22 pages) The aim of this study is to describe and analyse the structure of 3D geometry thinking by identifying ...

Understanding the natural geometry of crystals has long fascinated scientists, especially when studying how materials behave ...

Archaeology's participation in the digital renaissance of the twenty-first century requires adequate operationalization of technological methods, such as three-dimensional scanning. Here, we describe ...

Examples of 2D soft cells in nature include an onion’s cross-section, biological tissue cells, and islands formed by erosion in rivers. In 3D, the shapes can be found in nautilus shell segments.

Scientists spot a new shape: Newly identified 3D form called the 'scutoid' lets cells pack together without wasting energy Team studying epithelial cells pinpointed shape that occurs as they pack ...

Physna, which raised $56 million in a Series B funding round, plans to use the capital to grow Physna Enterprise, its deep-learning platform and Thangs, its free geometric search engine which ...

Scientists have been studying how epithelial cells pack tightly together, and have discovered a new shape in the process, as published in Nature Communications. As an embryo develops, tissues bend ...
