ICT AND HISTORY OF MATHEMATICS: the case of the pedal curves from 17th-century to 19th-century
, 2010 Dynamic geometry softwares renew the teaching of geometry: geometrical construction becomes dynamic and it is possible to " visualize " the generation of curves. Historically this aspect of the movement (continuous or not) is natural and was well known to 17th-century mathematicians.

Grammatical structures in mathematics: a personal view
Teaching Statistics, Volume 48, Issue S1, Page S47-S52, Summer 2026.Abstract The ability to read, write, and speak mathematics is critical to students becoming comfortable with statistical models and skills. Faster development of those skills may act as encouragement to further engage with the discipline. Vocabulary has been the focus of scholarship in existing literature on the linguistics of mathematics and ...

The Greatest Mystery of Futures Studies
FUTURES &FORESIGHT SCIENCE, Volume 8, Issue 2, August 2026.ABSTRACT Futures studies has long lived with a puzzle: every domain the field investigates is already studied by some special science. Three familiar replies—that futures studies extracts insights, takes a longer view, or includes lay perspectives—each capture something real but do not, on closer inspection, individuate the field at the level of its ...

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Proposing the concept of a conservative revolutionary generally and using the examples of Gregor Mendel, Max Delbrück, and Eric Davidson, I fundamentally call into question Thomas Kuhn's ideas of scientific revolutions. I also highlight some problematic consequences of the increasing appreciation of Kuhn's work among scientists and show that ...

Investigating Associations Between Developmental Integration and Physiological Stress
American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Objectives Integration, or patterns of correlation between structural elements, is of interest in diverse fields. Analysis is, however, generally limited to group‐level comparisons. This paper presents a novel combination of methods to quantify developmental integration (i.e., patterns of covariation which arise during growth) so that a ...

Marangoni Flow Before Carlo Marangoni
Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT In fluid dynamics, particularly in research on soft matter, it is well known that surface tension gradients drive fluid flow, a phenomenon known as Marangoni flow. The effect is named after Carlo Marangoni, who described it in 1865 as part of his doctoral thesis on droplets and liquid films. While Marangoni's contribution is rightly recognized,
