An oloid is a three-dimensional curved geometric object that was discovered by Paul Schatz in 1929. It is the convex hull of a skeletal frame made by placing two linked congruent circles in perpendicular planes, so that the center of each circle lies on the edge of the other circle. The distance between the circle centers equals the radius of the circles. One third of each circle's perimeter lies inside the convex hull, so the same shape may be also formed as the convex hull of the two remaining circular arcs each spanning an angle of 4π/3.

Prepositions in Italian: Preposizioni Articolate
What's a preposition? It's a word that describes a relationship between a noun and some other element in the sentence. In English, these are words like to, at, of, or in. How are they used in Italian? Furthermore, how do these combine with articles to become preposizioni articolate? Let's

Next in the series of olefination reactions is the Peterson olefination. This uses alpha-halo silanes and is quite fascinating, with a number of unique advantages. Namely, the stereochemistry of the alkene product can be controlled by using either acid or base. How does this work? Let's ta

Orthogonality and Orthonormality
We know that the word orthogonal is kind of like the word perpendicular. It implies that two vectors have an angle of ninety degrees or half pi radians between them. But this term means much more than this, as we can have orthogonal matrices, or entire subspaces that are orthogonal to one

Partitive in Italian: Il Partitivo
Partitive describes an undetermined part of a whole, like when asking for a bit of coffee. How do Italians express this? There are a few ways, so let's learn how to do this now! Script by Patrizia Farina, Professor of Italian at Western Connecticut State University and Purchase College.

It's now time to dig into some olefination reactions, which generate olefins, or alkenes. The first is the McMurry reaction. It involves some rather mysterious titanium chemistry, via a mechanism that is not fully understood. Let's check it out! Watch the whole Organic Chemistry playlist:

The Formation of the Solar System and the Structure of the Sun
So we learned about the formation of the Milky Way, which is the galaxy that we live in. But where in that galaxy do we live? We live on a planet that orbits a star that we simply refer to as "The Sun", so where is that, and when did our solar system form? We are now ready to learn about h

An introduction to surfaces | Differential Geometry 21 | NJ Wildberger
We introduce surfaces, which are the main objects of interest in differential geometry. After a brief introduction, we mention the key notion of orientability, and then discuss the division in the subject between algebraic surfaces and parametrized surfaces. It is very important to have a
