Dynamics of helical strips

The dynamics of inertial elastic helical thin rods with noncircular cross sections and arbitrary intrinsic curvature, torsion, and twist is studied. The classical Kirchhoff equations are used together with a perturbation scheme at the level of the director basis, and the dispersion relation for heli...
