(Closed) PhD on Modeling and Estimation of Lung Poromechanics

Context & Objectives The lungs are the primary organs of the respiratory system in humans and many animals, responsible for molecular exchanges between external air and internal blood through mechanical ventilation. It has an extraordinary complex architecture, with the inherent fractal structure of the bronchial and blood vessel trees, as Continue Reading(Closed) PhD on Modeling and Estimation of Lung Poromechanics

(Closed) Postdoc on Personalized modeling of lung poromechanics in COVID-19

Context & Objectives The COVID-19 infection manifests itself in its severe forms as acute alveolar-interstitial and vascular disease of varying severity, the long-term course of which is unknown. A development towards fibrosing pneumopathy could affect 10 to 30% of survivors of severe forms, which would make it a public health Continue Reading(Closed) Postdoc on Personalized modeling of lung poromechanics in COVID-19

Martin Genet & Dominique Chapelle involved in ANR COVID grant

Martin Genet & Dominique Chapelle are part of a project (SILICOVILUNG) selected by ANR in the 4th wave of the COVID call, cf. https://anr.fr/fr/actualites-de-lanr/details/news/appel-anr-ra-covid-19-les-resultats-des-premieres-vagues-devaluation. The project is managed by Pierre-Yves Brillet from Hypoxia & Lung/Université Sorbonne-Paris-Nord and Avicenne AP-HP Hospital. It aims at better understanding the regional physiological mechanisms in Continue ReadingMartin Genet & Dominique Chapelle involved in ANR COVID grant

New paper on relaxed growth

Martin Genet just published a paper in Clinical Biomechanics, introducing a new framework for controlling growth-induced residual stresses in the context of the kinematic growth approach (i.e., multiplicative split of deformation gradient), through an additional relaxation step.
