The dynamics of Cosserat nets

A formulation of the dynamics of a collection of connected simple 1-dimensional Cosserat continua and rigid bodies is presented in terms of sections of an SO(3) fibration over a 1-dimensional net. A large class of junction conditions is considered in a unified framework. All the equations of motion...
