The 1D version has been used to describe chromosome congression in the following article : Mary, H., Fouchard, J., Gay, G., Reyes, C., Gauthier, T., Gruget, C., Pecreaux, J., Tournier, S. and Gachet, Y.

The original version in 1D is available in the git branch simu_1D. The main branch master uses a new geometry system to simulate chromosomes in 3D.
Some code example and documentation con be found here : http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/bnoi/kt_simul/tree/master/doc/notebooks/.
Mathematical documentation about the 1D model is available at doc/simu_spindle_1d.pdf.
The best way to install the dependencies is to use the Anaconda Python distribution. Then use the following command lines :
