Spatial chaos of an extensible conducting rod in a uniform magnetic field
D. Sinden, G. H. M. van der Heijden
The equilibrium equations for the isotropic Kirchhoff rod are known to form an integrable system. It is also known that the effects of extensibility and shearability of the rod do…

The effects of nonlinear wave propagation on the stability of inertial cavitation
David Sinden, Eleanor Stride, Nader Saffari
In the context of forecasting temperature and pressure fields in high-intensity focussed ultrasound, the accuracy of predictive models is critical for the safety and efficacy of tr…

Integrability of a conducting elastic rod in a magnetic field
D. Sinden, G. H. M. van der Heijden
We consider the equilibrium equations for a conducting elastic rod placed in a uniform magnetic field, motivated by the problem of electrodynamic space tethers. When expressed in b…
