Evolving Cellular Automata to Grow Microstructures
The properties of engineering structures such as cars, cell phones or bridges rely on materials and on the properties of these materials. The study of these properties, which are determined by the internal architecture of the material or microstructure, has significant importance for material scientists. One of the things needed for this study is a tool that can create microstructural patterns....
متن کاملA Novel Bioinspired Switchable Adhesive with Three Distinct Adhesive States
A novel switchable adhesive, inspired by the gecko's fibrillar dry attachment system, is introduced. It consists of a patterned surface with an array of mushroom-shaped pillars having two distinct heights. The different pillar heights allow control of the pull-off force in two steps by application of a low and a high preload. For low preload, only the long pillars form contact, resulting in a l...
متن کاملCell growth: How to grow and where to grow
Root hairs provide a model system for studying tip growth in plants. The recent cloning of genes required for tip growth has shed new light on the link between ionic regulation, cell wall assembly and the cytoskeleton in cell growth.
متن کاملSynchrony and asynchrony for neuronal dynamics defined on complex networks.
We describe and analyze a model for a stochastic pulse-coupled neuronal network with many sources of randomness: random external input, potential synaptic failure, and random connectivity topologies. We show that different classes of network topologies give rise to qualitatively different types of synchrony: uniform (Erdős-Rényi) and "small-world" networks give rise to synchronization phenomena...
متن کاملCell growth: Downstream of Myc – to grow or to cycle?
For many years, Myc function has been linked to the control of cell-cycle progression. Now, increasing evidence shows that Myc also controls cell growth, and that these two processes are regulated independently.
