Dynamics of the Ribbon
A number of simulations have been done for the ribbon and
how it responds to various forces and events. The most complete set has
been done by David Lang and most of it can be found on the
GTOSS and Elevator simulation page. Work has also been done by
Blaise Gassend but it is not yet published here (Blaise?).
