A multiphysics model for rapid collapse and slow recovery movements of Mimosa pudica with experimental validation

A remarkable feature of Mimosa pudica is its ability to deform rapidly in response to certain external stimuli. In this thesis, a two-dimensional(2D) transient bio-chemo-electro-mechanical model of the rapid collapse movement of the main pulvinus of Mimosa pudica is developed. Based on the laws of m...
