Mechanical Instabilities of Biological Tubes
Edouard Hannezo, Jean-Francois Joanny, Jacques Prost
We study theoretically the shapes of biological tubes affected by various pathologies. When epithelial cells grow at an uncontrolled rate, the negative tension produced by their di…

Instabilities of monolayered epithelia: shape and structure of villi and crypts
Edouard Hannezo, Jacques Prost, Jean-Francois Joanny
We study theoretically the shapes of a dividing epithelial monolayer of cells lying on top of an elastic stroma. The negative tension created by cell division provokes a buckling i…
