优化蛇在飞机上的运动。II。横向摩擦大

Optimizing snake locomotion in the plane. II. Large transverse friction

Silas Alben

摘要:

我们确定分析的形式,最佳的蛇运动时,横向摩擦系数是大的,典型的制度,生物和机器蛇。我们发现,最佳的蛇运动是一个逆行的行波,与波的振幅衰减的横向摩擦系数的-1/4的权力。这一结果与我们的数值计算结果吻合得很好。

英文摘要:

We determine analytically the form of optimal snake locomotion when the coefficient of transverse friction is large, the typical regime for biological and robotic snakes. We find that the optimal snake motion is a retrograde traveling wave, with a wave amplitude that decays as the -1/4 power of the coefficient of transverse friction. This result agrees well with our numerical computations.
