 of all living organisms. Eukaryotic cells are stuctured on top of a scaffo
 ld of fibers ranging from stiff microtubules to semiflexible actin : the c
 ytoskeleton. As such the cytoskeleton is involved into a broad family of p
 rocesses of translocation and deformation of cells\, it is also responsibl
 e for cells mechanical stiffness. The actin filaments into cytoskeleton ca
 n be cross-linked into bundles built of as much as 30 parallel filaments\,
  but filaments can get bound at a finite angle also. These processes are i
 n competition during network’s self-assembly and result in strong residu
 al stresses. In this thesis\, we study the effect of these residual stress
 es on the elasticity of fiber networks in 2 dimensions of space. We develo
 p an original method to compute stress on the boundaries of a network and 
 its\nelastic moduli. We find that residual stress induces a  stiffening i
 n the infinitesimal response of the network. Residual stress also affects 
 the non linear response of the network : we find that it makes the network
  unstable under compression\, and that they control the onset of non linea
 r response to shear.\n\n&nbsp\;
