How did @NancyPI just teach me a bunch of calculus in 45 minutes and it didn’t sound like rocket science. Thanks Nancy this is what STEM teaching should be.

Since the 1700s mathematicians have used the Euler equations to predict how fluids move. They’ve long suspected the equations sometimes fail. Now they have an example: quantamagazine.org/mathemati…

Famous Fluid Equations Spring a Leak

Researchers have spent centuries looking for a scenario in which the Euler fluid equations fail. Now a mathematician has finally found one.
