Pattern formation in reaction-diffusion and reaction-diffusion-convection systems

Pattern Formation by Reaction-diffusion

PROBLEM DEFINITION In biology, embryological development of the structure of an organism or limb is referred to as morphogenesis. As a result of morphogenesis, complex shapes and patterns can form starting from just a single cell. Two main mechanisms that contribute to the embryo’s development are cell movement and cell specialization based on cell position. These mechanisms are influenced by s...

A numerical treatment of a reaction-diffusion model of spatial pattern in the embryo

In this work the mathematical model of a spatial pattern in chemical and biological systems is investigated numerically. The proposed model considered as a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation. A computational approach based on finite difference and RBF-collocation methods is conducted to solve the equation with respect to the appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The ability and robust...

Blow-up for a reaction-diffusion equation with variable coefficient

We study the blow-up behavior for positive solutions of a reaction–diffusion equationwith nonnegative variable coefficient. When there is no stationary solution, we show that the solution blows up in finite time. Under certain conditions, we then show that any point with zero source cannot be a blow-up point. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Pattern formation mechanisms in reaction-diffusion systems.

In systems undergoing chemical reaction and diffusion, a remarkable variety of spatially structured patterns, stationary or moving, local or global, can arise, many of them reminiscent of forms and phenomena seen in living systems. Chemical systems offer the advantage that one can often control the parameters that determine the patterns formed and can thereby probe fundamental issues about patt...
