With the continuous increase in power demand, the coupling between transmission and distribution networks has become increasingly close. Under extreme natural disasters, initial failures of a small ...

Although not a household scientific name like Albert Einstein or Isaac Newton, Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan—who tragically died in 1920 at the age of 32—was one of the greatest minds in ...

Ramanujan’s elegant formulas for calculating pi, developed more than a century ago, have unexpectedly resurfaced at the heart of modern physics. Researchers at IISc discovered that the same ...

IISc physicists discovered that Ramanujan’s classic π-formulas arise naturally in modern theories describing critical phenomena and black holes. The connection suggests his early mathematics may have ...

More than a hundred years ago, long before anyone imagined supercomputers or black hole simulations, legendary Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan wrote down a set of formulas to calculate the ...

Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan’s mathematical legacy, including his century-old pi formulae, reaches beyond the boundaries of pure calculation, surfacing as an essential tool for ...

Physicists from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have found that pure mathematical formulae used to calculate the value of pi 100 years ago by Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan has ...

Most of us first hear about the irrational number π (pi)—rounded off as 3.14, with an infinite number of decimal digits—in school, where we learn about its use in the context of a circle. More ...

Abstract: The connectivity and functionality of a network can be significantly influenced by vital nodes, a subset whose behaviors are pivotal in applications like misinformation suppression and ...

In 2017, Roger Guimerà and Marta Sales-Pardo discovered a cause of cell division, the process driving the growth of living beings. But they couldn’t immediately reveal how they learned the answer. The ...
