The mechanical deformation of DNA is very important in many biological processes. In this paper, we consider the reduced Kirchhoff equations of the noncircular cross-section elastic rod characterized by the inequality of the bending rigidities. One family of exact solutions is obtained in terms of rational expressions for classical Jacobi elliptic functions. The present solutions allow the investigation of the dynamical behavior of the system in response to changes in physical parameters that concern asymmetry. The effects of the factor on the DNA conformation are discussed. A qualitative analysis is also conducted to provide valuable insight into the topological configuration of DNA segments.

Abstract In our article from the positions of branching theory the classical Euler task about stability of thin elastic rod under action of vertical compressive load is considered. With using of turn-tensor and accompanying vector the deformation of rod is described. In result the conditions of equilibrium in a case of linear determining equation are reduced to boundary problem relatively turn angle of cross section, described by the differential equation of pendulum. With help elliptic functions the diagrams of branching are constructed and are received the exact formulas of rod deformation at the loss of stability of vertical position. Analogy the task of stability of rod at turned force on end of rod is considered. Also, the oscillating loss of rod stability at tracking load is studied.

The paper presents a modification of the equations of Rabinowitsch-Mooney type for an approximate calculation of pressure drop in laminar flow of generalized Newtonian liquid through a straight channel whose cross section forms a simple continuous area. The suitability of the suggested procedure of calculation of pressure drop is demonstrated by the comparison of calculation results with both the published and original results of numerical solution and experiments.
