Dead Milkmen, PJs and PHS (putting the "Ram" in "Ramjet"?)
Figured I'd open up a new thread in light of the fact that "Sebastian LFT" and I apparently graduated from the same high school (and in order to avoid squatting on WebPilot's MotorPsycho's thread, where this fact was first revealed). Damn -- what a small world. There are a few quasi-famous people th...

Synchronized oscillators etc.
Self synchronizing systems, especially synchronized chaotic systems, are one of my favorite mathematical topics. If anyone is interested in the topic, a good search phrase is "synchronization manifold". Some of the math is surprisingly accessible. A closely related topic is the Ott-Grebogi-Yorke (OG...

I was already able to do all this stuff in Excel and yet found the combined effort of learning Sage and then using it to implement the problem to be far easier than implem...
