Load sharing in the growth of bundled biopolymers

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
To elucidate the nature of load sharing in the growth of multiple biopolymers, we perform stochastic simulations of the growth of biopolymer bundles against obstacles under a broad range of conditions and varying assumptions.

Collision Avoidance from Multiple Passive Agents with Partially Predictable Behavior

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
Navigating a robot in a dynamic environment is a challenging task, especially when the behavior of other agents such as pedestrians, is only partially predictable. Also, the kinodynamic constraints on robot motion add an extra challenge.
