Preferential Root Tropisms in 2D Wet Granular Media with Structural Inhomogeneities

We investigate certain aspects of the physical mechanisms of root growth in a granular medium and how these roots adapt to changes in water distribution induced by the presence of structural inhomogeneities in the form of solid intrusions. Physical intrusions such as a square rod added into the 2D g...
