Applying a multiscale approach to explain biofilm formation

Application d'une approche multi-échelle pour expliquer la formation des biofilms

Abstract

In this paper, we study the structure of a biofilm using homogenization techniques, which have been developed to characterize heterogeneous materials in physics. The properties of the biofilm depend therefore on the considered scale where they are calculated. Homogenization techniques are then applied on biofilm in order to determine emergent properties. We especially focus on the nutrient access properties and the link with biofilm structure.
