Abstract
In this talk, I will present some of my recent results on the use of nonsmooth analysis and nonconvex differential inclusions in two different real life problems. First, I will present the application to real-time avoidance of a swarm of mobile robots. The second application is the simulation of the motion of nanoparticles in straight microtubes.
