Massless Dirac equation as a special case of Cosserat elasticity
We suggest an alternative mathematical model for the massless neutrino. Consider an elastic continuum in 3-dimensional Euclidean space and assume that points of this continuum can experience no displacements, only rotations. This framework is a special case of the so-called Cosserat theory of elasticity. Rotations of points of the continuum are described by attaching to each point an orthonorma...
متن کاملStrong Cosserat Elasticity in a Transversely Isotropic Polymer Lattice.
Large size effects are experimentally measured in lattices of triangular unit cells: about a factor of 36 in torsion rigidity and 29 in bending rigidity. This nonclassical phenomenon is consistent with Cosserat elasticity, which allows for the rotation of points and distributed moments in addition to the translation of points and force stress of classical elasticity. The Cosserat characteristic...
متن کامل8 Dirac equation as a special case of Cosserat elasticity
We suggest an alternative mathematical model for the electron in which the dynamical variables are a coframe (field of orthonormal bases) and a density. The electron mass and external electromagnetic field are incorporated into our model by means of a Kaluza–Klein extension. Our Lagrangian density is proportional to axial torsion squared. The advantage of our approach is that it does not requir...
متن کاملExperimental Cosserat elasticity in open cell polymer foam
Reticulated open cell polymer foams exhibit substantial size e↵ects in torsion and bending: slender specimens are more rigid than anticipated via classical elasticity. Such size e↵ects are predicted by Cosserat (micropolar) elasticity, which allows points to rotate as well as translate and incorporates distributed moments (couple stresses). The Cosserat characteristic length is larger than the ...
متن کاملCosserat elasticity of negative Poisson’s ratio foam: experiment
Negative Poisson’s ratio polymer foams derived from reticulated open cell foams exhibit large size effects in torsion and bending. Effective moduli increase as diameter decreases in contrast to the prediction of classical elasticity. Size effects of this sort are predicted by Cosserat (micropolar) elasticity in which points can rotate as well as translate and distributed moments are incorporate...
