چکیده

We study numerically the Turing pattern in three dimensions in a FitzHugh-Nagumo-type reaction-diffusion system. We have found that interconnected periodic domain structures such as a gyroid, Fddd, and perforated lamellar structures appear in three dimensions, which never exist in lower dimensions. The stability analysis of these structures is also performed by means of a mode expansion.

SPOT PATTERNS IN GRAY SCOTT MODEL WITH APPLICATION TO EPIDEMIC CONTROL

In this work, we analyse a pair of two-dimensional coupled reaction-diusion equations known as the Gray-Scott model, in which spot patterns have been observed. We focus on stationary patterns, and begin by deriving the asymptotic scaling of the parameters and variables necessary for the analysis of these patterns. A complete bifurcation study of these solutions is presented. The main mathematic...

A new dimension to Turing patterns

It is well known that simple reaction-diffusion systems can display very rich pattern formation behavior. Here we have studied two examples of such systems in three dimensions. First we investigate the morphology and stability of a generic Turing system in three dimensions and then the well-known Gray-Scott model. In the latter case, we added a small number of morphogen sources in the system in...

Turing Systems as Models of Complex Pattern Formation

Half a century ago a reaction-diffusion system of two chemicals was introduced by Alan Turing to account for morphogenesis, i.e., the development of patterns, shapes and structures found in nature. Here we will discuss the formation of patterns and structures obtained through numerical simulation of the Turing mechanism in two and three dimensions. The forming patterns are found to depend stron...

Long-wavelength instabilities of three-dimensional patterns.

Long-wavelength instabilities of steady patterns, spatially periodic in three dimensions, are studied. All potentially stable patterns with the symmetries of the simple-, face-centered- and body-centered-cubic lattices are considered. The results generalize the well-known Eckhaus, zigzag, and skew-varicose instabilities to three-dimensional patterns and are applied to two-species reaction-diffu...

Formation of spatial patterns in epidemic model with constant removal rate of the infectives

Results are reported concerning the formation of spatial patterns in the two-species ratiodependent predator-prey model driven by spatial colored-noise. The results show that there is a critical value with respect to the intensity of spatial noise for this system when the parameters are in the Turing space, above which the regular spatial patterns appear in two dimensions, but under which there...
