This knot model, known as the composite link 2_21#_2_21#_3_1_TreeA, showcases the power of RidgeRunner software. This program, which is freely available at http://www.jasoncantarella.com/wordpress/software/ridgerunner/, employs a numerical algorithm to minimize knot length while maintaining a constant tube radius. By doing so, it reveals the unique shape for this topological knot. For more insights into tight knots and ropelength data, refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ropelength and http://www.jasoncantarella.com/wordpress/papers/, respectively.
