There is mathematics in every realm of science. Mathematics has always related two different domains for example a triangle and a sphere. But can it correlate altogether different aspects of technology? The answer though faint is slightly inclined towards a 'yes', thanks to Ontology Logs.

The researchers studying this specific branch of mathematics have linked the spider silk with #-Link-Snipped-#. The scientists claim that there is a deep relation between the light weight silk and peculiarity in structure of a #-Link-Snipped-#. The breakthrough will specifically prove to be beneficial for development of materials with repeating patterns. Spider silk as we know has more flexible than most materials even after being nearly weightless, in other words failure resistant. A material as that of spider silk has a repeating structure at nano level.
#-Link-Snipped-# team David Spivak, a postdoc in the Department of Mathematics, Associate Professor Markus Buehler of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) and CEE graduate student Tristan Giesa has compiled the information as to how the materials behave mathematically. For establishing this mathematical model, ologs came in handy. The team observed that the building blocks of these material and sound waves behave in a similar way. This means that it is somehow analogus.
Although further research is needed to claim that both the aspects are completely related, the study establishes a firm base for any next step which the successors might want to take. The research is published in the online issue of journal #-Link-Snipped-#. In this research, although mathematics or simply ologs were used, they have scientific background to it. Of course they look easy to solve but unless there is a definite scientific backing to the concept, the ologs will always tend to end up more tedious.
Ontology logs gained popularity in 1940s with the introduction of category theory. They has been used in establishing analogy in many of the domains since then. Looking at the widening boundaries of science, it is necessary for us to apply already developed concepts of one branch to another branch for the sake of convenience. The present research has taken care of that.
