This project explores how plants perceive mechanical signals and generate motion without traditional biological systems like muscles. By studying the interactions between fluids and solids in plants, it aims to uncover fundamental mechanisms that could inspire new materials and technologies.
How to transport fluids, move solids or perceive mechanical signals without the equivalent of pumps, muscles or nerves?
This ongoing challenge, which is relevant from microfluidics to robotics, has long been solved by plants.
In this project, I wish to gather my cross-disciplinary background in plant mechanics, soft matter physics and granular materials to address some of the fundamental mechanisms used by plants to perceive mechanical stimuli and generate motion.
The project focuses on three ma…
