UNIGE scientists have demonstrated that cellular tissues are deformed by buckling (or bending under the action of compression), a phenomenon that could lie behind embryo morphogenesis. The embryo of ...
Linear finite-element analysis does not provide enough information about buckling to make correct design decisions, especially when designing lightweight components ...
The embryo of an animal first looks like a hollow sphere. Invaginations then appear at different stages of development, which will give rise to the body's structures. Although buckling could be the ...
