Reptation motion of large animals in a fluid
V. M. Shapovalov Volgograd State Technical University, Volgograd, 400103, Russia
Abstract:
An asymptotic analysis of the plane problem of reptation motion of animals in a fluid is performed in a long-wave approximation. Turbulent motion is considered. Asymptotic estimates are obtained for the axial and shear forces, expended energy, and motion trajectory. Results of numerical analysis are given.
Keywords:
turbulence, reptation motion, elastic line.
