Our <b>focus</b> is on rigidity, flexibility and motion for constrained structures like <b>linkages</b> or frameworks in mechanics or robotics. In an interdisciplinary spirit, we also consider applications to computational biology, and investigate computational methods for motion generation in molecules (in particular, proteins).LinKaGe
