Bio-inspired control model for snake locomotion based on Cosserat beam theory
Abstract
This paper revisits from a mathematical perspective the modeling of locomotion in snake-like bodies in fluid environement as given in \cite{boyer2010poincare} and \cite{boyer2011macrocontinuous}. Using a Cosserat rod theory, we derive several systems of PDEs depending on the type of constraint and actuation.
