Do you have any links showing how to do that with blender?

Anything in particular? I was thinking of things like viscosity and stress analysis for fluid mechanics. It would be easy enough to animate a stress tensor and show how each term behaves when prodded. Similarity the basic concepts behind laminar boundary layers would be equally straight forward.
Mimicking 3b1b’s style would be trickier since he uses a lot of 2D plots. Of course you can run python directly from blender so you never know.

He has an entire series on "the essence of linear algebra". I'm a PhD student in a technical field, and rewatch that series at least once a year. It's brilliantly accessible, clear, and visually explained. I recommend the series to anyone who asks me about anything to do with matrix operations
I’m currently considering moving back into academia and there are a lot of topics in my field that I know students often struggle with that would be greatly helped by some simple animations. Fortunately I’m pretty competent with blender and I relish the idea of developing something worthwhile.
