Patterns in reaction diffusion system

چکیده

Reaction-Diffusion systems are important in the field of non-equilibrium phenomena with relevance to biological and synthetic pattern formation. While homogenous distribution of chemicals was always believed to be a stable state, the symmetry-breaking treatment by Turing on such systems in 1951 showed pattern formation could be more stable in certain cases. This paper reviews the treatment by Turing and the subsequent evidences for and against its application.

Cellular Automata Simulation of a Bistable Reaction-Diffusion System: Microscopic and Macroscopic Approaches

The Cellular Automata method has been used to simulate the pattern formation of the Schlögl model as a bistable Reaction-Diffusion System. Both microscopic and macroscopic Cellular Automata approaches have been considered and two different methods for obtaining the probabilities in the microscopic approach have been mentioned. The results show the tendency of the system towards the more sta...

Pattern Formation of the FitzHugh-Nagumo Model: Cellular Automata Approach

FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model is a famous Reaction-Diffusion System which first introduced for the conduction of electrical impulses along a nerve fiber. This model is also considered as an abstract model for pattern formation. Here, we have used the Cellular Automata method to simulate the pattern formation of the FHN model. It is shown that the pattern of this model is very similar to those...

Almost sure exponential stability of stochastic reaction diffusion systems with Markovian jump

The stochastic reaction diffusion systems may suffer sudden shocks‎, ‎in order to explain this phenomena‎, ‎we use Markovian jumps to model stochastic reaction diffusion systems‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we are interested in almost sure exponential stability of stochastic reaction diffusion systems with Markovian jumps‎. ‎Under some reasonable conditions‎, ‎we show that the trivial solution of stocha...

A CMOS Reaction-diffusion Device Using Minority-Carrier Diffusion in Semiconductors

We propose a CMOS device that is analogous to the reaction–diffusion system, a chemical complex system that produces various dynamic phenomena in the natural world. This electrical reaction–diffusion device consists of an array of pn junctions that are operated by CMOS reaction circuits and interact with each other through minority-carrier diffusion. Computer simulations reveal that the device ...

Single walled carbon nanotube in the reaction layer of gas diffusion electrode for oxygen reduction reaction

In this paper, the effect of surface area of reaction layers in gas diffusion electrodes on oxygen reduction reaction was investigated. For this purpose, various amounts (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and zero %wt of total loading of reaction layer) of single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) were inserted in the reaction layer. The performance of gas diffusion electrodes for oxygen reduction re...

Pattern Formation in Reaction-Diffusion Systems

Reaction-diffusion approach has been used to explain pattern formation arising in neurobiology, chemical physics, population ecology, developmental biology and other fields. Despite its simple structure, a class of reaction-diffusion systems exhibit a lot of spatial and spatio-temporal patterns. Some of these patterns in a reacting and diffusing medium can be often observed by internal layers o...
