Sep 3, 2015 at 10:32 comment added David Roberts @Raskol what about elasticity? Flexibility? Compressibility? Friction? Mass? Radius? The study of physical knots (i.e. embeddings of knotted solid tori) is actually quite complicated without making it an engineering problem, too.
Sep 3, 2015 at 8:55 comment added Igor Rivin This requires a lot more assumptions to make sense...
Sep 3, 2015 at 7:52 comment added Raskol For example, let us assume that two chains are made of the same material but have different knotting topologies. I would like to evaluate their resistance to deformation/breaking based on the knottings.
Sep 3, 2015 at 7:32 comment added David Roberts What sort of underlying physical assumptions are you making here?
