This paper investigates the movement of a bending travelling wave along a rod and its reflection from point mass. The solution is shown to depend on the coordinate of the load and its magnitude. The solution to the inverse problem makes it possible to define the coordinate of the point mass and its magnitude using the data on both the reflected and moving waves at the observation points.

The article investigates the reflection of a longitudinal damped travelling wave from the transverse notch and its movement along an infinite rod plunged into viscous liquid. The simplest model for the stress deformed state in the notch zone is applied. The solution is found to depend on the parameters of the liquid and damping characteristics in the material of the rod and the surrounding liquid. The solution to the inverse problem makes it possible to define the coordinate of the notch and the parameter that contains its depth and length using data on both the incident and reflected waves at the observation point.

This article investigates the reflection of a longitudinal wave from the transverse notch and its movement along an infinite rod. The dependence is obtained between the reflected wave and parameters of the notch. The statement of the inverse problem allows defining the coordinate of the notch and the parameter that contains its depth and length using data on both the incident and reflected waves at the observation point.

Consideration is given to the reflection of distributed mass attached to a pipeline and the movement of a short bending travelling wave. The solution is shown to depend on the initial coordinate of the distributed mass and its magnitude. The solution to the inverse problem makes it possible to define the initial coordinate of the distributed mass and its magnitude using the data on the reflected wave at the observation point.

AbstractCilia and flagella are long, slender organelles found in many eukaryotic cells where they have sensory, developmental and motile functions. All cilia and flagella contain a microtubule-based structure called the axoneme. In motile cilia and flagella, which drive cell locomotion and fluid transport, the axoneme contains, along most of its length, motor proteins from the axonemal dynein family. These motor proteins drive motility by using energy derived from the hydrolysis of ATP to generate a bending wave, which travels down the axoneme. As a first step towards visualizing the ATPase activity of the axonemal dyneins during bending, we have investigated the kinetics of nucleotide binding to axonemes. Using a specially built UV-TIRF microscope, we found that the fluorescent ATP analog mantATP (methylanthraniloyl adenosine triphosphate), which has been shown to support axonemal motility, binds all along isolated, immobilized axonemes. By studying the recovery of fluorescence after photobleaching, we found that there are three mantATP binding sites: one that bleaches rapidly (time constant ≈ 1.7 s) and recovers slowly (time constant ≈ 44 s), one that bleaches with the same time constant but does not recover and one that does not bleach. By reducing the dynein content in the axoneme using mutants and salt extraction, we provide evidence that the slow-recovering component corresponds to axonemal dyneins. The recovery rate of this component, however, is too slow to be consistent with the activation of beating observed at higher mantATP concentrations; this indicates that the dyneins may be inhibited due to their immobilization at the surface. The development of this method is a first step towards direct observation of the travelling wave of dynein activity.
