Microstructure of colonies of rod-shaped bacteria.
Whole colonies of Bacillus cereus, B. megaterium, B. mycoides CN2495, Corynebacterium hofmanni NCTC1938, Escherichia coli, Lactobacillus acidophilus NCIB1899, Nocardia graminis NCTC4728, Pseudomonas viscosa, and Serratia marcescens were prepared for scanning electron microscopic examination by freeze-drying and metal-coating. The arrangement of individual cells within colonies could be seen. Ce...
متن کاملEfficient embedding of a geometrically exact Cosserat rod in multibody dynamics using kinematic coupling constraints
In vehicle design and production, one typically has to deal with flexible components. Simulation of these flexible components as part of a multibody system is especially challenging, if fast simulations up to realtime are demanded. This is the case, e.g., in interactive assembly simulations of cables and hoses. In our work, we use the discrete Cosserat rod model as presented in [1], which is ba...
متن کاملA discrete mechanics approach to the Cosserat rod theory—Part 1: static equilibria
A theory of discrete Cosserat rods is formulated in the language of discrete Lagrangian mechanics. By exploiting Kirchhoff’s kinetic analogy, the potential energy density of a rod is a function on the tangent bundle of the configuration manifold and thus formally corresponds to the Lagrangian function of a dynamical system. The equilibrium equations are derived from a variational principle usin...
متن کاملVariational Analysis of the Coupling Between a Geometrically Exact Cosserat Rod and an Elastic Continuum
We formulate the static mechanical coupling of a geometrically exact Cosserat rod to a nonlinearly elastic continuum. In this setting, appropriate coupling conditions have to connect a one-dimensional model with director variables to a three-dimensional model without directors. Two alternative coupling conditions are proposed, which correspond to two different configuration trace spaces. For bo...
متن کاملGranular hypoplasticity with Cosserat effects
This paper provides an extension to Cosserat mechanics of a recently proposed version of hypoplasticity [1], and this extension is achieved economically by means of a novel complex-variable formulation of Cosserat theory. The present work represents a compact synthesis and theoretical framework for both non-polar and polar hypoplasticity, and it encompasses various special cases considered in t...
