Expérimental Description
In this new project, we focus on an original system that has barely been studied in the frame of mechanics and not at all in terms of rheology : a honeybee cluster. The experiment is reminiscent to a bead rheometer to measure the effective mechanical response of a bee cluster under mechanical stress.
