| Abstract: |
We apply the discrete mechanics approach to the discretisation of geometrically exact Cosserat rods. We consider discrete Cosserat rods defined on a vertex (or nodal) grid, as well as on a staggered grid, and provide a review and update of the results already obtained in Part I for the nodal model variant and, for the first time, present a detailed version for the staggered variant. Several numerical examples underline the validity of the presented theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
