ABC MAP

 
Blog Summary Widget

Visualization of mixing in a three-dimensional volume-preserving chaotic ABC map (Arnold-Beltrami-Childress) - using the concentration field of a decaying chemical tracer with a non-uniformly distributed source.

Simulated phytoplankton bloom in a simple plankton ecosystem model with non-uniform carrying capacity and two-dimensional turbulent flow representing horizontal transport by mesoscale ocean eddies - the length-scale is hundred kilometers.

PLANKTON TURBULENCE

William MCkiver

Phototactic particles that swim with a velocity proportional and directed along the gradient of a fixed illumination field and advected by a synthetic turbulent flow, forming a spatially intermittent distribution on a support with fractal structure that changes in time following the dynamics of the flow.

Collective cell migration

Luke Coburn

Computational model of collective cell migration demonstrates that tactile interactions based on local inhibition of cell protrusions lead to coherent motion and enhanced “collective” chemotaxis in which social cell-to-cell interactions dominate over directional sensing.

 

Dynamic Patterns on The Cell cortex

Thomas Moore


Computational PDE model of the distribution of contractile stress and transport in a two-dimensional layer of actin and myosin shows that a network of actin bridges forms spontaneously resulting in a dynamic pattern of contracting rings while new bridges form continuously.

 

Modeling Epidermal self-renewal
