Glacier melting - Lo scioglimento dei ghiacciai

This poster was created to make us understand how the melting of glaciers has been evolving in recent years. From the mathematical models we deduced that: 1) the temperature of the water under the ice is above the freezing point, therefore, the sea water that is warmer will transfer energy, in the form of heat, to the ice sheet 2 ) and how the wind drags it.

La radioattività

This poster is based on nuclear medicine, the basis of which were given by the discoveries of Marie Curie, a great scientist of the early 1900s. She discovered the radioactivity of radium and polonium, making a notable contribution to medicine, with the birth of radiodiagnosis modern; in fact, already during the First World War she created the first mobile radiological unit to treat wounded soldiers. Using a pie chart, the constitution of radiation was also highlighted: potassium (30%), radon (15%), building materials (15%), cosmic radiation (13%) and more (27%) . The radiation dose was expressed using a mathematical formula.

Le quattro dimensioni di Einstein

With this work, we want to point out the importance of the study of mathematics in technological innovations, through the 4 dimensions (length, width, height and time) deduced by Einstein.

Einstein

It is intended to demonstrate how the studies and discoveries of Albert Einstein, have made a great contribution to innovation and scientific research to date. It is noted that from the special theory of relativity summarized in the formula E = mc² Einstein came to formulate the theory of general relativity. According to this theory, space and time are part of a single dimension and the force of gravity is the effect of a large mass that curves space – time, so gravity is geometry. To arrive at these studies Einstein used non-Euclidean geometry. Thanks to these discoveries, we, today, can use high-tech devices.

I viaggi nello spazio

With this poster we have found how the evolution of mathematical studies has allowed man to travel in space; passing from Newton's law of universal gravitation, to mathematical models of the trajectories of the planets around the Sun, to the law of special relativity and then to that of general relativity by Albert Einstein.

Laura Bassi

With this work we want to demonstrate how the studies and discoveries of scientists of the past have contributed to improving the world. An example is Laura Bassi who in 1700, using her mathematical studies, came to the conclusion that the air respected Boyle's law only on days of low humidity and therefore, it was also necessary to take into account water vapor. In addition, he found that glass was capable of producing electricity when heated. His discoveries certainly contributed to the construction of plumbing and solar panels.

Fibonacci

With this poster we want to show that mathematics, thanks to Fibonacci numbers and the golden section, helps to make nature more beautiful and perfect. In fact, the wonderful harmony of nature, also given by mathematical models, is found in the universe, in the organisms, animals and plants, which live in the sky, in the sea and on earth.

Previsione e terremoti

With this work we want to highlight how mathematics through models can help prevent earthquakes. The mathematical model taken into consideration is that of Reasenberg-Jones. It takes as input the seismic data of a region - how many earthquakes there have been, when they occurred, where they occurred and how strong they were - and outputs a probability distribution of future events. In other words: the algorithm is able to provide the probability, within a week, of having a shock of a certain magnitude on a spatial scale of interest.

We made this poster after playing with mysterious grids and thinking about what math is for us and where we find it. In the mysterious grids we have hidden the words that answer a question: "what does mathematics represent for us?"

Imagine superimposing the two grids and you will discover the words that express what mathematics is for us students of the 1D of the Zirilli middle school in Milazzo.

Ipazia

This poster represents Hypatia, a mathematician, philosopher and scientist, the inventor of the indeterminate equations called "diopters". Hypatia in our opinion is a great example for everyone. We like her desire to learn and to be a cultured woman despite the enormous difficulties of the time.

How good is honey! A teaspoon of honey makes me feel so good!

Bees, unknowingly, use math to build honeycombs while optimizing space! It's a nice example of space tessellation!

Giuseppe Longo e Marco Leo- classe IB

The Maya’s mathematics is considered one of the most advanced of its time for the introduction of zero and the use of a twenty-based positional system ... they used their hands and feet to count!

Their particular numbering system was useful for the definition of complex calendars that indicate how advanced their astronomical studies were.

Persiverance is a NASA rover sent to Mars to detect possible life forms, departed on July 30, 2020, traveling for 7 months and covering about 470,776,457 km, arrived on the Martian surface on February 18, 2021. All this was possible only thanks to all the mathematical and physical studies that lie behind this project.

L'astronomia - ieri e oggi

This poster shows how mathematics has improved the world astronomically and scientifically. We have represented how the stars were once observed compared to now and by what means. We made the poster with digital software. We made it because we believe mathematics has improved the way we observe the stars over the years and look at them from a different perspective.
