Reaction-diffusion fronts with inhomogeneous initial conditions
Properties of reaction zones resulting from A + B → C type reaction-diffusion processes are investigated by analytical and numerical methods. The reagents A and B are separated initially and, in addition, there is an initial macroscopic inhomogeneity in the distribution of the B species. For simple two-dimensional geometries, exact analytical results are presented for the time-evolution of the ...
متن کاملDiffusion in spatially and temporarily inhomogeneous media.
In this paper we consider diffusion of a passive substance C in a temporarily and spatially inhomogeneous two-dimensional medium. As a realization for the latter we choose a phase-separating medium consisting of two substances A and B , whose dynamics is determined by the Cahn-Hilliard equation. Assuming different diffusion coefficients of C in A and B , we find that the variance of the distrib...
متن کاملPattern formation in spatially heterogeneous Turing reaction–diffusion models
The Turing reaction–diffusion model [Phil. Trans. R. Soc. 237 (1952) 37–72] for self-organised spatial pattern formation has been the subject of a great deal of study for the case of spatially homogeneous parameters. The case of parameters which vary spatially has received less attention. Here, we show that a simple step function heterogeneity in a kinetic parameter can lead to spatial pattern ...
متن کاملCanards and Bifurcation Delays of Spatially Homogeneous and Inhomogeneous Types in Reaction-diffusion Equations
In ordinary differential equations of singular perturbation type, the dynamics of solutions near saddle-node bifurcations of equilibria are rich. Canard solutions can arise, which, after spending time near an attracting equilibrium, stay near a repelling branch of equilibria for long intervals of time before finally returning to a neighborhood of the attracting equilibrium (or of another attrac...
متن کاملCross-diffusion Induced Instability and Stability in Reaction-diffusion Systems
In a reaction-diffusion system, diffusion can induce the instability of a uniform equilibrium which is stable with respect to a constant perturbation, as shown by Turing in 1950s. We show that cross-diffusion can destabilize a uniform equilibrium which is stable for the kinetic and self-diffusion reaction systems; on the other hand, cross-diffusion can also stabilize a uniform equilibrium which...
