چکیده

We investigate the behavior of localized spots in three spatial dimensions in a model two-variable system describing the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction in water-in-oil microemulsion. We find three types of instabilities: splitting of a single spot (i) into two spots, (ii) into a torus, and (iii) into an unstable shell that splits almost immediately to six or eight new spots.

On Interaction of T S Waves and 3 D Localized Disturbance in a Divergent Flow Under Zero Pressure Gradient

To simulate the effect of free st ream turbulence on turbulent spot formation, experiments were conducted on the interaction of localized three-dimensional disturbances with the harmonic waves in a laminar boundary layer on a flat plate. Experiments conducted in three-dimensional diverging flow (but zero pressure gradient) show, while individually the disturbances decay downstream, their intera...

Localized Patterns in the Gray-Scott Model An Asymptotic and Numerical Study of Dynamics and Stability

Localized patterns have been observed in many reaction-diffusion systems. One well-known such system is the two-component Gray-Scott model, which has been shown numerically to exhibit a rich variety of localized spatiotemporal patterns including, standing spots, oscillating spots, self-replicating spots, etc. This thesis concentrates on analyzing the localized pattern formation in this model th...

The Stability and Dynamics of Localized Spot Patterns in the Two-Dimensional Gray-Scott Model

The dynamics and stability of multi-spot patterns to the Gray-Scott (GS) reaction-diffusion model in a two-dimensional domain is studied in the singularly perturbed limit of small diffusivity ε of one of the two solution components. A hybrid asymptotic-numerical approach based on combining the method of matched asymptotic expansions with the detailed numerical study of certain eigenvalue proble...

Stability of three-dimensional self-trapped beams with a dark spot surrounded by bright rings of varying intensity.

We analytically and numerically examine the stability of three-dimensional self-trapped beams with a dark spot surrounded by bright rings of varying intensity in a uniform saturable self-focusing medium. It is shown that the fundamental bound state of the family is stable to a symmetric perturbation but unstable to an asymmetric perturbation (that breaks the azimuthal symmetry of the beam, i.e....

Rotational motion of traveling spots in dissipative systems.

What is the origin of rotational motion? An answer is presented through the study of the dynamics for spatially localized spots near codimension 2 singularity consisting of drift and peanut instabilities. The drift instability causes a head-tail asymmetry in spot shape, and the peanut one implies a deformation from circular to peanut shape. Rotational motion of spots can be produced by combinin...
