A S4 class that stores a fluid-like flesh component together with an explicit elastic backbone component for swimbladder-less fish applications where those two structures should remain separate. The body and backbone each retain their own geometry, orientations, and material properties. This class is intended to support composite flesh-plus-backbone model development and future extensions where additional internal structures may need to be carried alongside the body.
