Filling Space

Featured Video Play Icon

While not directly fluid dynamical, this video from Steve Mould uses water to illustrate mathematical concepts like fractals and space-filling curves. Water, it turns out, does a great job of drawing our eyes to the way these one-dimensional curves fill up two- and three-dimensional space. Check out the full video for a mathematical dive into the concepts. (Video and image credit: S. Mould)
