Mathematics education at TU Delft
At PRIME, I worked closely with professors at the Delft Institute of Applied Mathematics to develop materials and tools for engineering education. My work combined mathematical animation with software development for online textbooks.
How I ended up at PRIME is a story in itself, I wrote a blog post about: How I joined PRIME ↗
Mission LAIKA
Most of my work focused on Mission LAIKA — Linear Algebra in Kinematics and Aerodynamics. I was responsible for coding mathematical animations that connect abstract linear algebra to aerospace engineering applications, helping students see the mathematics behind the problems they study.
Read more about the animations and the project in Linear algebra, made visual, or explore the Mission LAIKA repository.
Tools for online textbooks
I also developed tools for Jupyter Book and TeachBooks, including sphinx-tudelft-theme, a Sphinx extension that applies TU Delft’s visual identity to online textbooks. It brings consistent colours, typography, logos, and styling to elements such as exercises, theorems, and notes, so authors can use a shared theme across their books.
The package is available on PyPI, and can be installed with pip:
pip install sphinx-tudelft-theme
