Mathematics is not just a language. Mathematics is a language plus reasoning. It's like a language plus logic. Mathematics is a tool for reasoning. It's, in fact, a big collection of the results of some person's careful thought and reasoning. By mathematics, it is possible to connect one statement to another.

This is the end. Beautiful friend.

With MTU damper phase completed, the building has seen a total of 119 shakes. We will start reconfigure the walls Monday.

A very wet spring for San Diego, wild flowers start to bloom on site. 😘

Curious to learn about the source of power behind UC San Diego's Large High Capacity Outdoor Shake Table responsible for conducting the world's tallest mass timber shake test? Take a look at the impressive hydraulic system that powers the table and makes these tests possible.
