Pursuit Curves in Julia
Imagine the path of a fox chasing a rabbit. A simple pursuit strategy (but by no means the best) would consist of the fox constantly moving in the direction of the rabbit at full speed. …

This project started when I was reviewing the Excel engineering calculators found on MITCalc.com. MITCalc has many useful calculators for sale for designing gears, springs, beams, and much more. They also have many generic engineering …
Biomedical engineering was a natural choice for me. It combines my knack for engineering with my desire to help people. Biomedical engineers are more or less guaranteed to work on projected intended to help people. …
This is a love letter to my favorite shape, half of Euler’s figure-eight or Fig. 8. I know… it’s a little weird to have a favorite shape. It’s even weirder to be so specific about …
Here’s a quick experiment with a non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) of a heart using Blender. I created a custom shader to render 3D objects in the style of intaglio printing. You’ve likely seen intaglio before without …
Diagnostic test are invaluable tools in our medical arsenal, but they are not without pitfalls. These tests can be used to identify diseases in their early states or eliminate competing diagnoses to find the correct …
For a biomedical engineer, studying the Hodgkin-Huxley model is a rite of passage—and rightly so. Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley set out to reverse engineer the spiking behavior of our nerves, and their work won …
