The oscillations were caused by the wind, which was gusty but was not really blowing that hard. The wind ended up pushing the bridge like you might push someone on a swing. Even though the pushes were not very forceful, after many pushes the oscillation was huge! CryptologyLeaderInformation.pdf

Calendars Mathematics (from Greek mathema: science , knowledge, learning; mathematikos: fond of learning) is the study of patterns of quantity, structure, change and space. In the modern view, it is the investigation of axiomatically defined abstract structures using formal logic as the common framework. The specific structures investigated often have their origin in the natural sciences , most commonly in physics , but mathematicians also define and investigate structures for reasons purely internal to mathematics, for instance because they realize that the structure provides a unifying generalization for several subfields or a helpful tool in common calculations. Finally, many mathematicians study in the areas that they do for aesthetic reasons - simply because they find the structures they investigate beautiful in and of themselves.

Extractions: Ivars Peterson's MathTrek November 4, 2000 The term "mathematical art" usually conjures up just one namethat of Dutch graphic artist M. C. Escher (1898-1972). Many people are familiar with Escher's endless staircases, hyperbolic tilings, Möbius ants, intricate tessellations, and other creations. They may also be aware of the intertwining of mathematics and art during the Renaissance, with the development of perspective painting and eye-teasing stagecraft. A few might add the names of Piet Mondriaan (1872-1944), Salvador Dali (1904-1989), Victor Vasarely, or Frank Stella. But the realm of mathematical art is far wider and more diverse than most people realize. A surprising number of contemporary artists count mathematicsfrom Fibonacci numbers and the digits of pi to tetrahedra and Möbius stripsas the inspiration for their creations. For those fortunate enough to be in New York City, the exhibit offers a rich sampling of artworks inspired by mathematics, ranging from the gracefully curved sculptures of Brent Collins and tensegrity structures of Kenneth Snelson to the playful polyhedra of George Hart and the wavy painted grids of Doug Pedens. The show runs from Nov. 7 to Dec. 15, 2000, at the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, Humanities Gallery and Brooks Design Center, Albert Nerken School of Engineering, 51 Astor Place, New York City (

Some Common Themes In Visual Mathematical Art These include polyhedra, tessellations, impossible figures, Möbius bands, distorted or unusual perspective systems, and fractals. http://members.tripod.com/vismath6/fath/
Extractions: 1. Introduction Historically, mathematics has played an important role in visual art, particularly in perspective drawing; i.e., the means by which a three-dimensional scene is rendered convincingly on a flat canvas or piece of paper. Mathematics and art are two seemingly disparate fields according to contemporary views, the first often considered analytical and the second emotional. Mathematics does not play an overt role in most contemporary art, and in fact, many artists seldom or never employ even perspective drawing. However, there are a number of contemporary visual artists who make mathematics a focus of their work. Several notable figures in history paved the way for these individuals. This paper is intended to some degree to serve as an introduction to the Exhibit of Visual Mathematical Art held as part of Bridges 2001. The examples given here are taken for the authors convenience from a limited set of artists. The choice of works is by no means intended to be a representative sampling of artists working in this area.
