These models are examples of student work on a project on special relativity in a multivariable calculus class.
The first, `lightcone.stl` is a schematic model of a light cone (represented with two spatial dimensions, plus time), illustrating where in space time one can get to under the restriction that one cannot travel faster than light.
The second gives a possible resolution to the Ehrenfest Paradox: what happens if you try to spin a solid disk at relativistic speeds? The paradox lies i
