Two styles of Brachistochrone Models were compared and discussed: one fabricated in metal by a machine shop at the University of Waterloo and housed in their Applied Mathematics Department, and the other 3d printed at York University and housed in the Experimental Math Space. Both constructed with slight differences that lead to differing performances. Sept 13, 2023.

Students in Math 3260 (Introduction to Graph Theory) were asked to use microscopes to take pictures of certain minerals and other common surface materials, such as clothing, skin, and textbooks. Once the pictures were obtained, students were then asked to generate a graph based on interesting features of those pictures and discuss the properties learned in class of those graphs. Shown is an image taken with the properties of the graph applied to it. Tuesday, April 4, 2023
