Math geeks?

####### nerds

[mikenike605]

no way am i a math geek. My mind refuses to do math unless its applied. i cant concentrate on numbers unless im finding demensions or angles on something im building.on another note I know im a science geek, Im taking material sciences and there are alot of things I would like to apply in that class to longboarding. im thinking the use of piezoelectric films for vibration cancellation in boards. many more ideas im keeping to myself for now.

I've been using the Fibonacci sequence up to 600 (dropping the zeros) as my 26 digit network password for years, so I guess that makes me a math geek, although I stopped taking math after diff eq and linear algebra.

Learn how to do a rubiks cube

ha ha I can! gonna be an engineer, however the rubics cube is mostly memorization for me whats the difference between a tech engineer and a mechanical engineer?

I remember telling my father I realized I was a math nerd when I was leaving the campus math library with a clutch of math books
and felt a naughty thrill at the prospect of reading them--akin to slinking out of an adult bookstore...

He told me it obvious when I admitted to knowing where the math library was.

v(t) = Vo ( 1 - e^ (t/RC))

Electronics Engineers are invadin' your thread! :3

ohh boy RC circuits Havn't seen those in like 2 years

I take algebra 2 as a freshman. I'm one of 3 freshies in my class and I take it with sophmores and juniors. I get the highest grades in the class I haven't gotten below a 100 on a test yet and other people are failing them :/

Thats's cuz you go to high school in NC

i'm a mechie. i almost never go to my principles of electrical engineering lectures, but i do go to my tutorials. so i know f*ck all what formulas mean haha. its all plug and play for me

I am going to be an engineer, and one of the side things I want to do is longboard-related engineering. I'll bet if I rode enough, I could design the best CNC trucks out there. Unfortunately, I won't have time to... Another thing I want to do is design percolation systems for bongs and water pipes. As a side project, though.

im working on what i can do with with longboards. no degree or anything, just an 'advanced mind'. plus if i get stuck with nonsense, i can go to my dad. he's been working with Lockheed for 30 something years.

i've already put together a perc or 2 with my work. theres some perks working at a bong shop

I consider myself pretty mathematically minded.... but i gotta say, Diff Eq is kicking my ass right now.

inverse laplace transformations

ohh boy RC circuits Havn't seen those in like 2 years

thanks for the blast to reality. i should be studying that.... right now

and now I must physically disconnect my internet or else i'll be doing this all night

if any of you like comic books at all, i just picked up a book. The Physics of Super Heroes. this book is funny as hell and just a good read. the guy who wrote it is a professor at U of Minn. i just started, i'll post more once i get deeper in it

inverse laplace transformations

I was running though some Fourier transforms at work today. Actually found a library that does transforms...its nice.

[kim_jong_ewww]

laplace transforms are easy... fourier problems are not...

Uhh... they are kinda the same thing mathmaticly

I was just asked to derive a concave radius formula (based on concave depth and deck width at a given point) I posted in a thread, and it honestly made my day.

Nice break from the 2nd-order partial differential equations. Algebra's fun... calculus seems to be getting less and less fun
