Analog mathematical art: Physics of the force-free spinning top, visualized using the traditional techniques of descriptive geometry.
Viewed from an observer in the gyroscope's frame of reference, the vector of angular momentum traces out the intersection curve of a sphere and an ellipsoid: The former determined by the magnitude…
Your chosen art on canvas, stretched in an aluminum frame. Quick and easy to change for a fresh look and exactly as you want it.
Elke Stangl (elkement) (she/her) is an Austrian physics PhD working as an engineer. Her mathematical art is borne out of her life-long passion for the theoretical underpinnings of her craft. She is creating virtual three-dimensional structures from mathematical functions – digitally with code or with ruler and compass, using traditional techniques of descriptive geometry.
Her initial inspiration was Sir Roger Penrose’s book The Road to Reality, the hand-crafted…
