A physicist has mounted one of the most detailed technical challenges yet against the idea that our universe is a computer ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Researchers say it's impossible to use algorithmic computation to generate everything in our universe. The possibility that our ...

Nvidia said it’s launching early access to its Omniverse computer graphics and simulation platform that allows 3D creators to work collaboratively in real time on architecture, engineering, and ...

Deformable object simulation forms a cornerstone of modern computer graphics, enabling the realistic rendering and interactive manipulation of soft, flexible materials ranging from cloth and ...

Science doesn’t have all the answers. There are plenty of things it may never prove, like whether there’s a God. Or whether we’re living in a computer simulation, something proposed by Swedish ...

Could our universe be simulated? Physicists are saying that the answer is no. Scientists have discovered that it’s impossible to model the physics of our universe on even the biggest computer. What ...

Randles began her career as a physicist and she explains why she was drawn to the multidisciplinary research that she does ...

Think about the last time you were at a lake, river, or the ocean. Remember the ripples of the water, the waves crashing against the rocks, the wake following a boat, the sun reflecting off the crests ...

Computer scientists have introduced a novel representation of waves that improves computational efficiency by at least an order of magnitude. Based on principles of theoretical physics, their method ...
