A slender body theory for the motion of special Cosserat filaments in Stokes flow
The motion of filament-like structures in fluid media has been a topic of interest since long. In this regard, a well known slender body theory exists wherein the fluid flow is assumed to be Stokesian while the filament is modeled as a Kirchhoff rod which can bend and twist but remains inextensible and unshearable. In this work, we relax the inextensibility and unshearability constraints on filaments, i.e., the filament is modeled as a special Cosserat rod.

Fully funded 3year PhD position at Univ Rostock, Germany: multistable composite structures
The chair of lightweight design (Prof. Weissgraeber) at the University of Rostock, Germany, offers a fully-finded PhD-position for 3 years (extension possible).
We are seeking for an excellent candidate interested in research on a Ph.D. project in the field of applied structural mechanics. The research project will be on of shape-adaptive lightweight structures and developing new analytical approaches for multistable composite structures.
