Floating Bodies of Equilibrium
A long cylindrical body of circular cross-section and homogeneous density may float in all orientations around the cylinder axis. It is shown that there are also bodies of non-circular cross-sections which may float in any direction. Apart from those found by Auerbach for ρ = 1/2 there are one-parameter families of cross-sections for ρ 6= 1/2 which have a p-fold rotation axis. For given p they ...

متن کاملFloating Bodies of Equilibrium II
In a previous paper (physics/0203061) ”Floating bodies of equilibrium” we have shown that there exist two-dimensional non-circular crosssections of bodies of homogeous density ρ 6= 1/2 which can float in any orientation in water, which have a p-fold rotation axis. For given p they exist for p− 2 different densities. However, this was found only in a Taylor-expansion in a parameter which describ...
متن کاملInterconnected Cavernous Structure of Bacterial Fruiting Bodies
The formation of spore-filled fruiting bodies by myxobacteria is a fascinating case of multicellular self-organization by bacteria. The organization of Myxococcus xanthus into fruiting bodies has long been studied not only as an important example of collective motion of bacteria, but also as a simplified model for developmental morphogenesis. Sporulation within the nascent fruiting body require...
متن کاملWave drag on floating bodies.
We measure the deceleration of liquid nitrogen drops floating at the surface of a liquid bath. On water, the friction force is found to be about 10 to 100 times larger than on a solid substrate, which is shown to arise from wave resistance. We investigate the influence of the bath viscosity and show that the dissipation decreases as the viscosity is increased, owing to wave damping. The measure...
