Making waves: pattern formation by a cell-surface-associated signal.
Starving Myxococcus xanthus cells organize into two strikingly different spatio-temporal patterns, either rippling or aggregation of cells into fruiting bodies. Formation of both patterns depends on a cell-surface-associated, non-diffusible signal, the C-signal. A key motility parameter modulated by the C-signal during pattern formation is the frequency at which cells reverse their gliding dire...
متن کاملSurface Waves and Pattern Formation in Vibrated Granular Beds
We present numerical simulations of surface waves in vibrated granular systems. For the simulations we use an event driven (ED) procedure with a non-constant restitution coeecient. The important advantage of a non-constant restitution coeecient is that it allows to circumvent the \inelastic collapse", i.e. the divergence of collision frequency, usually observed in ED simulations of dense and di...

the main purpose of this research was to:1.develop a coking model for thermal cracking of naphtha.2.study coke inhibition methods using different coke inhibitors.developing a coking model in naphtha cracking reactors requires a suitable model of the thermal cracking reactor based on a reliable kinetic model.to obtain reliable results all these models shall be solved simultaneously.for this pu...
15 صفحه اولPattern formation in weakly damped parametric surface waves
We present a theoretical study of nonlinear pattern formation in parametric surface waves for fluids of low viscosity, and in the limit of large aspect ratio. The analysis is based on a quasi-potential approximation to the equations governing fluid motion, followed by a multiscale asymptotic expansion in the distance away from threshold. Close to onset, the asymptotic expansion yields an amplit...
متن کاملTrapping Rossby Waves
Waves associated to large scale oceanic motions are gravity waves (Poincaré waves which disperse fast) and quasigeostrophic waves (Rossby waves). In this Note, we show by semiclassical arguments, that Rossby waves can be trapped and we characterize the corresponding initial conditions.
