蚯蚓蠕动过程中非光滑波纹形体表的力学分析

THE CREEPING MECHANISM OF THE NON-SMOOTH WAVY SURFACE OF EARTHWORM BODY

  • 摘要: 蚯蚓体表的形状是蚯蚓适应其生存环境和自然进化的结果. 用力学分析方法,解释蚯蚓的多体节非光滑形态在其运动过程中所表现出的省力、节省能量的特性. 计算结果表明具有波纹形表面的蚯蚓在蠕动过程中可以节省1.12\%的纵向肌肉的收缩力,在运动过程中所消耗的能量也可以节省1%左右.

     

    Abstract: It is the result of natural evolution that anearthworm with a multi-sectional non-smooth wavy surface can perfectly adaptits living environment. An earthworm moving in soil needs less longitudinalmuscle contract force and less energy than those required to move a similarsized cylindrical body. The computational analysis shows that such anearthworm body with the wavy surface can reduce its muscle contract force by1.12\%, and a similar amount of energy as well.
