An agent-based model of muscle contraction process as a bio-robotic process

This paper introduces a new computational methodology to model muscle contraction process as a bio-robotic process using agent technology. In this work, we have focused on muscle myosin nanomotor as the driven motor of muscles and introduced the nanomotor as a physical intelligent agent. Then, the m...
