DESCRIPTION:Roxane Saumya Shivangui Ollivier (MESOBIO\, EPFL)\nAbstract: D
 isordered networks composed of mechanical elements such as springs\, cable
 s\, and struts (which selectively withstand tension or compression) are of
  particular interest for their tunable mechanical properties and potential
  to model biological systems. The project investigates how element type ra
 tios\, network topology\, and mechanical loading influence rigidity\, modu
 lus scaling\, buckling\, and nonlinear responses of tensegrity networks. L
 ocal non-affine displacements and novel metrics such as "caging escape" ar
 e introduced to quantify transitions under deformation.\n \nBio: Roxane 
 got her engineering degree at ESPCI in Paris. She then did a master's degr
 ee in soft matter and biophysics at ICFP. She started her PhD in Septembe
 r last year
