Absence of Buckling in Nerve Fiber

In this study we give a geometrical model which employs the smoothness of nerve fibers as differentiable curves. We show that a nerve fiber may encounter large curvature due to the possible helicial bending and hence it could cause the fiber to buckle. However, its membrane structure provides a mechanism, entirely geometrical to avoid it. To overcome the challenge of emerging helix we project it into a plane.Comment: 7 pages no figure.

Counterrotational effects on stability of 2+1-dimensional thin-shell wormholes

The role of angular momentum in a 2+1-dimensional rotating thin-shell wormhole (TSW) is considered. Particular emphasis is made on stability when the shells (rings) are counterrotating. We find that counter-rotating halves make the TSW supported by the equation of state of a linear gas more stable. Under a small velocity dependent perturbation, however, it becomes unstable.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, final version published in EPJ
