- Researchers at MIT and Pierre et Marie Curie University in Paris have come up with a new theory that describes how a knot's configuration, or "topology," determines its mechanical forces. (Learn more: mitsha.re/RVIRY )

Dude, you’re glasses make so much sense.
can you guys show me how to untie my fucking earbuds?
Damn....tying of my wired earphones is the most fucked up thing happen to me
It looks almost like his glasses are upside down. 0_0
this is art of science, how science becomes part of our daily life
I'm pretty sure that this will not be that useful for other knots, this trefoil class of knots is special from this point of view, but it might be a good start with a lot of additional tests. I would be very interested in this, but it is not that simple, unfortunately. First of all, you're changing the knot, so you won't get a property of it, but you will get a property of that family where the property is a comparison between all it's members.
Ummm, doesn't a trefoil knot have to be a closed loop? Pretty sure what he had was an overhand knot.
Take a look at the snap Bowline way of tying a bowline knot. To use this technique successfully, the knot that you create has to “invert“ for the knot to actually become a proper bowline knot. If the knot does not “invert“, you end up with a knot that is mathematically identical to a bowling but in reality is just a slip knot. I
Help i do the hangman knot and i dont know how to untangle it
Geometry, Topology, Mathematics everywhere and mathematics for everyone.
How is a twisted cord "more secure" ?
+Samu BRidges Surface to surface friction (interior & exterior.)
+Corvaire Wind yeah, but the pressure in a twisted material is greater and probably less secure.
Some spiders may have an argument for that ;O)-
Taking notes .. and my duct tape, rope and rag
Coz if you arn't elbow deep in Nitinol, you arn't at MIT.
That isn't a mathematical trifoil knot.
SirCutRy mathematical knots don’t have any loose ends. :)
A struggle to get to the end due to his accent, inflection and glasses and when I did, realized I hadn't learned anything. Did he actually say anything significant?
+Mike Page Yes, but mongoloids tend not to understand, don't feel bad though, you didn't ask for your mental impairment.
Yes
Yes. I guess you’re used to people’s words sounding like they’re asking a question ! ? !?
