This is a project to develop students' understanding of Newton's Method using the tools available in Geogebra. This project was adapted from a similar project developed by folks at Grand Valley State University. (If any of you see this and would like more specific attributions, please let me know.)

A brief (lets not kid ourselves its long) introduction to the continuous and discrete wavelet transforms. Comments on implementations on the computer using MATLAB and other software is also included.

Various geometrical shapes are described, for which the numerical value of the perimeter is the same as that of the area. Cases of one or two parameters are explored.

A detailed report of findings on the altitudes which can be reached by super pressure balloons and how various factors and considerations affect this. Superpressure balloons are deployed and researched by various organisations including NASA, to solve technical limitations such as cell tower coverage as well as advancing fields of research. Balloons are used in planetary exploration, and weather prediction to teaching primary school physics. The versatile yet simple aerostat has been a valuable tool in many areas of engineering and their altitude ceiling is of great scientific interest. To solve the problem without the ability to physically reproduce the scenario, required mathematical models to be created as a means of simulating the effects of real world physics. A degree great enough to output an accurate and hence useful result without becoming too complex to be computable is the fine balance attempted to be created by this paper.

We describe what mimetic interpolation is and why it is critical for some pre- and post-processing tasks. A simple test case shows how using bilinear interpolation for a flux calculation introduces numerical errors that depend on the grid, the number of segments and the number of quadrature points. In contrast, mimetic interpolation will return the exact result regardless of the grid resolution and the number of segments.
