A new research paper reframes the simulation hypothesis, asking whether reality could be simulated and what science can test.

Scientists in China have performed an experiment first proposed by Albert Einstein almost a century ago when he sought to ...

Physicists are quietly rolling out a new generation of simulation codes that promise to do more than crunch numbers. By ...

Even consciousness could reveal its secrets someday with this realistic simulation, researchers hope. It will not only ...

Earth’s atmosphere is escaping into space—and the Moon has been quietly collecting it for billions of years. Shocking new ...

Rapid advances in the kind of problems that quantum computers can tackle suggest that they are closer than ever to becoming ...

Einstein’s equations were written for chalkboards and paper, yet they now sit at the heart of some of the most visually ...

Thomas Anderson – otherwise known as Neo – is walking up a flight of stairs when he sees a black cat shake itself and walk past a doorway. Then the moment seems to replay before his eyes. Just a touch ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

Additive manufacturing (AM) technology depends on the implemented selective laser melting (SLM) process. A good comprehension of its parameters is required to perform an efficient SLM process.

Real non-spherical particles can be modeled using the Discrete Element Method (DEM) with sphere clusters, superquadrics, or polyhedral particles. However, in applications involving a considerable ...
