I'm going to submit a 1-3 projects to this course from this list: 1. Improve PyDy viz UI (pythreejs integration, importing cad models, test suite, etc) 2. Develop a singularity function module in SymPy with docs/examples on beam bending engineering problems. 3. PyDy website automated example gallery
These students would be ideal for improving the SymPy webapps (live and gamma) and also for the mathematically inclined, working on the core codebase. Francesco's MathJax idea sounds cool. I have to get these proposals to Prof. Xin Liu by the 6th (PST). If anyone wants to submit a proposal please send me the following by the 5th: Title Abstract Necessary skills (can be required or what the students will learn) These students will likely be good candidates for GSoC too and we can lead them into an application for that if they are interested. Let me know ASAP if you want to do this.
