Lucien Saviot, Daniel B Murray, Alain Mermet, Eugene Duval
TL;DR
This paper corrects errors in the calculation of vibrational eigenfrequencies of elastic spheres, affecting mode symmetry, and suggests a method for calculating damping of these modes in embedded spheres.
Contribution
It provides corrected eigenenergy calculations for elastic spheres and introduces a way to estimate damping in embedded elastic sphere modes.
Findings
Corrected eigenfrequency calculations change mode symmetry.
New approach for damping estimation in embedded elastic spheres.
Clarified the vibrational mode structure of spherical virus particles.
Abstract
This comment corrects some errors which appeared in the calculation of an elastic sphere eigenenergies. As a result, the symmetry of the mode having the lowest frequency is changed. Also a direction for calculating the damping of these modes for embedded elastic spheres is given.
