Modeling of Cables with High and Low Tension Zones using a Hybrid Rod-Catenary Formulation
Sachin Goyal, Noel C. Perkins
Cables under very low tension may become highly contorted and form loops, tangles, knots and kinks. These nonlinear deformations, which are dominated by flexure and torsion, pose s…
Nonlinear dynamic strand model with coupled tension and torsion
Sachin Goyal, Noel C. Perkins
We simulate the nonlinear dynamic responses in Kirchhoff rod by including the important effects due to inertia and kinematic coupling of tension and torsion. We begin by reviewing…
Structural Modeling of DNA Loops in Lactose-Repressor
Sachin Goyal, Noel C. Perkins
It is well known that the structural deformations (stressed states) of DNA molecule play a crucial role in its biological functions including gene expression. For instance, looping…
Cable dynamics applied to long-length scale mechanics of DNA
Sachin Goyal, Todd Lillian, Noel C. Perkins +1
This paper introduces the use of cable dynamics models as a means to explore the mechanics of DNA on long-length scales. It is on these length scales that DNA forms twisted and cur…
