Mirzakhani was awarded the Fields Medal in 2014 for "her outstanding contributions to the dynamics and geometry of Riemann surfaces and their moduli spaces". [37] The award was made in Seoul at the International Congress of Mathematicians on 13 August. [38] At the time of the award, Jordan Ellenberg explained her research to a popular audience:
Freeform surface modelling is a technique for engineering freeform surfaces with a CAD or CAID system.. The technology has encompassed two main fields. Either creating aesthetic surfaces (class A surfaces) that also perform a function; for example, car bodies and consumer product outer forms, or technical surfaces for components such as gas turbine blades and other fluid dynamic engineering ...
A surface may be composed of one or more patches, where each patch has its own U-V coordinate system. These surface patches are analogous to the multiple polynomial arcs used to build a spline. They allow more complex surfaces to be represented by a series of relatively simple equation sets rather than a single set of complex equations.

An isosurface is a three-dimensional analog of an isoline.It is a surface that represents points of a constant value (e.g. pressure, temperature, velocity, density) within a volume of space; in other words, it is a level set of a continuous function whose domain is 3-space.
Defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth said Wednesday he won't drink "a drop of alcohol" if confirmed by the Senate to lead the Pentagon
In footage captured on the day, a guest can be seen standing up while the train nears the top of the large hill, and moving toward the safety railing and staircase traveling along the lift hill.
Bézier surfaces are a species of mathematical spline used in computer graphics, computer-aided design, and finite element modeling. As with Bézier curves, a Bézier surface is defined by a set of control points.
