Intestinal peristalsis and wrinkling: A novel paradigm
René Thierry Djoumessi, Christopher Miller, Nipuni D. Nagahawatte +3
A new computational framework for modeling the intestinal wall as a multi-layered fiber-reinforced continuum is presented. The framework reproduces for the first time physiological…

Electromechanical computational model of the human stomach
Maire S. Henke, Sebastian Brandstaeter, Sebastian L. Fuchs +3
The stomach plays a central role in digestion through coordinated muscle contractions, known as gastric peristalsis, driven by slow-wave electrophysiology. Understanding this proce…

A self-contact electromechanical framework for intestinal motility
René Thierry Djoumessi, Pietro Lenarda, Alessio Gizzi +1
This study introduces an advanced multiphysics and multiscale modeling approach to investigate intestinal motility. We propose a generalized electromechanical framework that incorp…
