Shaping Event-Based Haptic Transients Via an Improved Understanding of Real Contact Dynamics
Haptic interactions with stiff virtual surfaces feel more realistic when a short-duration transient is added to the spring force at contact. But how should this event-based transi...

Joining Softassign and Dynamic Programming for the Contact Map Overlap Problem
Comparison of 3-dimensional protein folds is a core problem in molecular biology. The Contact Map Overlap (CMO) scheme provides one of the most common measures for protein structur...

Implicit nonlinear complementarity: A new approach to contact dynamics
— Contact dynamics are commonly formulated as a linear complementarity problem. While this approach is superior to earlier spring-damper models, it can be inaccurate due to pyram...

Dynamics of Inter-Meeting Time in Human Contact Networks
—We envision new communication paradigms, using physical dynamic interconnectedness among people. Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are a new communication paradigm to support such ...
