Dynamics of cells and biomimetic systems (BIOMICS)

Persons :

• Prof. dr.  DUBOIS Frank - Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB)
  Coordinator of the project
  Financed belgian partner
  Duration: 1/1/2006-31/12/2007
  

Description :

The project aims to quantify, without the effect of the gravity, the dynamical regimes of biomimetic systems under flow. The main measurement system will be based on a digital holographic microscope. The main achievement of the project will be the data analysis of a souding rocket experiment. It will result from a preparatory phase including experiments on ground and during parabolic flights campaigns.

Satellite(s) or flight opportunity(ies):

- Parabolic-flights campaigns
- Sounding Rocket.

Field of research:

Life and Physical Science: Fluid dynamics
