New ActivityThe latest activity to be updated on this site is called "Position Practice" (Use words for position and direction including left, right, in front, behind, under and above.). So far this activity has been accessed 14 times and 5 people have earned a Transum Trophy for completing it. Featured ActivityKey Stage 2 Tests There are some wonderful questions for Year 6 pupils in the Key Stage 2 Maths Tests (SATs) which normally take place at this time each year. Here are some links to Transum activities for the main Maths attainment statements. Click the image above to begin. Recent News:Toxic chemicals can be detected with new AI methodResearchers have developed an AI method that improves the identification of toxic chemicals -- based solely on knowledge of the molecular structure. The method can contribute to better control and understanding of the ever-growing number of chemicals used in society, and can also help reduce the amount of animal tests. more... New computer algorithm supercharges climate models and could lead to better predictions of future climate changeA study describes a new computer algorithm which can be applied to Earth System Models to drastically reduce the time needed to prepare these in order to make accurate predictions of future climate change. During tests on models used in IPCC simulations, the algorithm was on average 10 times faster at spinning up the model than currently-used approaches, reducing the time taken to achieve equilibrium from many months to under a week. more... The end of the quantum tunnelQuantum mechanical effects such as radioactive decay, or more generally: 'tunneling', display intriguing mathematical patterns. Researchers now show that a 40-year-old mathematical discovery can be used to fully encode and understand this structure. more... From disorder to order: Flocking birds and 'spinning' particlesResearchers have demonstrated that ferromagnetism, an ordered state of atoms, can be induced by increasing particle motility and that repulsive forces between atoms are sufficient to maintain it. The discovery not only extends the concept of active matter to quantum systems but also contributes to the development of novel technologies that rely on the magnetic properties of particles, such as magnetic memory and quantum computing. more... Manipulating the geometry of 'electron universe' in magnetsResearchers have discovered a unique property, the quantum metric, within magnetic materials, altering the 'electron universe' geometry. This distinct electric signal challenges traditional electrical conduction and could revolutionize spintronic devices. more... New sensing checks for 3D printed products could overhaul manufacturing sectorA sensing technology that can assess the quality of components in fields such as aerospace could transform UK industry. more... Novel robust-optimal controllers based on fuzzy descriptor systemThe Takagi--Sugeno (T--S) fuzzy descriptor system offers a promising avenue for controlling non-linear systems but lacks optimal control strategies. Moreover, while robust control methods have been developed, they add additional complexity. To address these limitations, a team of researchers has developed novel optimal and robust-optimal controllers based on the T--S fuzzy descriptor model, holding great potential for enhanced autonomous systems. more... |
