Analysis of worm-like locomotion
Nature is a storehouse of great ideas, which are mostly so well planned, that engineers can apply them directly via examining, understanding and imitating the natural working principles. Snakes and worms can be found in almost every region of our planet. Their success is mainly based on the simple construction of their body and their robust locomotion technique. Snakes and worms move their body...
متن کاملBioluminescent aposematism in millipedes
Figure 1. Millipede luminescence and predation. (A) Motyxia sequoiae photographed in natural light, and (B) entirely with light from bioluminescence; (C) Mean proportion of millipedes attacked versus luminescence. Number of individuals attacked above bars; (D) Rodent incisor marks in clay millipede; (E) Live millipede (arrow) with anterior segments 1–14 missing after predator attack. Biolumines...
متن کاملThe Rheology of Worm-like Micellar Fluids
This article reviews what has been published on the rheology of worm-like micellar fluids (WLMFs). It is written primarily for those interested in continuum (non-Newtonian fluid) mechanics: it covers the bulk rheological behaviour of typical WLMFs and rheological equations of state (REoS) that reflect this bulk behaviour; it also covers molecular dynamics and Brownian dynamics models that aim t...
متن کاملRheology and structure of worm-like micelles
Although worm-like micelles have been studied for over 20 years, the diversity of macroscopic behavior and the potential analogy to polyelectrolytes has driven continued study. During the last year, development and application of more realistic scattering models has yielded a deeper understanding of micelle structure. Comprehensive studies on systematic systems are being reported that combine s...
متن کاملOrganized condensation of worm-like chains
We present results relevant to the equilibrium organization of DNA strands of arbitrary length interacting with a spherical organizing center, suggestive of DNA-histone complexation in nucleosomes. We obtain a rich phase diagram in which a wrapping state is transformed into a complex multi-leafed structure as the adhesion energy is reduced. The statistical mechanics of the “melting” of a rosett...
