The image of the Mandelbrot set is one of the most recognizable representations of a fractal. But what's behind the entrancing picture? In this interactive, learn a bit about how we generated our ...

Hexagonal close packing is one of two crystal structures that derive from stacking close-packed-planes of hard sphere atoms. In the HCP structure only two stacking ...

He wondered about building Tetris, a Turing Machine, or rendering fractals purely in CSS and HTML. The jury is still out if a Turing machine is possible, but he did manage to generate some simple ...

The Fractal Design Refine may not look like a classic gaming chair, but it is one of the best chairs we have tested. Even when sitting for long periods of time, there are no signs of fatigue and ...

The space is designed with math in mind; in the bathroom, for instance, you’ll find hexagonal sinks and a ... “Tessellation Station” or creating fractals at the “Feedback Fractals ...

I caught a snowflake on my sleeve, perfectly hexagonal, with all the points intact. We got out a microscope, and Mum taught me about the Fibonacci sequence and fractals, and how Johannes Kepler ...

Here’s how it works. I can scarcely believe how good the Fractal Refine is, considering this brand has never made a gaming chair before. In almost every way, it’s a perfect all-rounder that ...

Quantum physics is the study of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. A central tenet of quantum physics is that energy comes in indivisible packets called quanta. Quanta behave very ...

When the cross-section is a triangle, the prism is called a triangular prism. When the cross-section is a hexagon, the prism is called a hexagonal prism. Image caption, The faces of a prism are ...
