Continuous models for peristaltic locomotion with application to worms and soft robots

A continuous model for the peristaltic locomotion of compressible and incompressible rod-like bodies is presented. Using Green and Naghdi’s theory of a directed rod, incompressibility is enforced as an internal constraint. A discussion on muscle actuation models for a single continuum is included. T...
