Biobots: The Scientists Building Robots Inspired By Nature's Design [4K] | The Age of Robots | Spark

Mankind has always looked at nature to solve problems, taking a cue from the solutions that biological systems have refined through natural selection. In this episode we look at a robotic plant that mimics the mechanics of plant roots, and dive underwater to see robots inspired by fish. -

Introduction to Tiling Theory

In this mini-lecture, we explore tilings found in everyday life and give the mathematical definition of a tiling. In particular, we think about: (i) traditional Islamic tilings; (ii) floor, wallpaper, pavement, and architectural tilings; (iii) the three regular tilings using either equilat

Nathalie Priebe Frank : Introduction to hierarchical tiling dynamical systems

Abstract: These lectures introduce the dynamical systems approach to tilings of Euclidean space, especially quasicrystalline tilings that have been constructed using a 'supertile method'. Because tiling dynamics parallels one-dimensional symbolic dynamics, we discuss this case as well, hig

WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A MATHEMATICAL TILING: introducing the basics of math tiling | Nathan D.

I go through the basics behind the question, "what is the definition of a mathematical tiling". While introducing the basics of math tiling objects, we introduce the definitions of a partition, topological disc, and a prototile. By introducing these ideas and definitions, we are able to an

James Propp - Conjectural Enumerations of Trimer Covers of Finite Subgraphs of the Triangular (...)

The work of Conway and Lagarias applying combinatorial group theory to packing problems suggests what we might mean by “domain-wall boundary conditions” for the trimer model on the infinite triangular lattice in which the permitted trimers are triangle trimers and three-in-a-line trimers.

Robert Fathauer - Knotting & Numbering Kite Tiling Rosettes - G4G13 Apr 2018

A kite tiling rosette is a tiling with a single kite-shaped prototile and a singular point about which the tiling has rotational symmetry. Such tilings can be constructed over a wide range of kite shapes for all n (is greater than 2) and for concave kites for n = 2. They are two colorable

The well-known Hilbert Curve, with its non-fractal square boundary, turns out to be a special case of a larger class of space-filling curves of unit area called "half-domino" curves. These are also tiles in the limit, but with infinitely long, almost-everywhere linear boundaries that are b
