    • Electro-mechanically guided growth and patterns 

      Du, Yangkun; Su, Yipin; Lü, Chaofeng; Chen, Weiqiu; Destrade, Michel (Elsevier, 2020-07-01)
      Several experiments have demonstrated the existence of an electro-mechanical effect in many biological tissues and hydrogels, and its actual influence on growth, migration, and pattern formation. Here, to model these ...

    • Poynting effect of brain matter in torsion 

      Balbi, Valentina; Trotta, Antonia; Destrade, Michel; Annaidh, Aisling Ni (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-06-13)
      We investigate experimentally and model theoretically the mechanical behaviour of brain matter in torsion. Using a strain-controlled rheometer, we perform torsion tests on fresh porcine brain samples. We quantify the torque ...
