PCC2D ---------- .. automodule:: classes This class represents a planar slender soft body under the Piecewise Constant Curvature (PCC) hypothesis without elongation. The strain is modeled as .. math:: \boldsymbol{\xi}(q, s) = \boldsymbol{\Phi}(s)q + \boldsymbol{\xi}_{0} = \frac{1}{L_0} \left(\begin{array}{c} 1 \\ 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{array}\right)q + \left(\begin{array}{c} 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{array}\right), where :math:`q \in \mathbb{R}` is the configuration variable and :math:`s \in [0, L_{0}]` the curvilinear abscissa, with :math:`L_{0}` the body rest length. .. autoclass:: PCC2D :show-inheritance: :members:
