Simulation of an epidemic model with nonlinear cross-diffusion
A spatially two-dimensional epidemic model is formulated by a reaction-diffusion system. The spatial pattern formation is driven by a cross-diffusion corresponding to a non-diagonal, uppertriangular diffusion matrix. Whereas the reaction terms describe the local dynamics of susceptible and infected species, the diffusion terms account for the spatial distribution dynamics. For both self-diffusi...
متن کاملA Diffusion Approximation for an Epidemic Model
Influenza is one of the most common and severe diseases worldwide. Devastating epidemics actuated by a new subtype of the influenza A virus occur again and again with the most important example given by the Spanish Flu in 1918/19 with more than 27 million deaths. For the development of pandemic plans it is essential to understand the character of the dissemination of the disease. We employ an e...
متن کاملPattern 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...
متن کاملTuring Pattern Formation without Diffusion
The reaction-diffusion mechanism, presented by AM Turing more than 60 years ago, is currently the most popular theoretical model explaining the biological pattern formation including the skin pattern. This theory suggested an unexpected possibility that the skin pattern is a kind of stationary wave (Turing pattern or reaction-diffusion pattern) made by the combination of reaction and diffusion....
متن کاملPattern formation in reaction diffusion systems: a Galerkin model
Reaction diffusion systems are extremely useful for studying pattern formation in biological systems. We carry out a Lorenz like few mode truncation of a reaction diffusion system and show that it not only gives the same qualitative behaviour as the more complicated systems but also indicates of the existence of a Hopf-bifurcation in the turing region. PACS. 87.10.+e General theory and mathemat...
