Noether symmetry and conserved quantities of the analytical dynamics of a Cosserat thin elastic rod

In this paper, we investigate the Noether symmetry and Noether conservation law of elastic rod dynamics with two independent variables: time t and arc coordinate s. Starting from the Lagrange equations of Cosserat rod dynamics, the criterion of Noether symmetry with Lagrange style for rod dynamics is given and the Noether conserved quantity is obtained. Not only are the conservations of generalized moment and generalized energy obtained, but also some other integrals.
