It is a multi-scale problem. Presence of small parameter leads to boundary layer phenomena in both sides of the region. A non-equidistant finite difference method is presented according to the property of boundary layer. The region is divided into an inner boundary layer region and an outer boundary layer region according to transition point of Shishkin. The steps sizes are equidistant in the outer boundary layer region. The step sizes are gradually increased in the inner boundary layer region such that half of the step sizes are different from each other. Truncation error is estimated. The proposed method is stable and uniformly convergent with the order higher than 2. Numerical results are given, which are in agreement with the theoretical result.展开更多

We chose the thermal growth ofoxide scales on metals as an example of reaction-diffusion growth. The thermal growthof oxide films follows power law when no cracking occurs. Our results showed that thegrowth kinetics under stochastic cracking and healing conditions was different fromthat without cracking. It might be altered to either pseudo-linear or pseudo-power lawsdependent upon the intensity and frequency of the cracking of the films. When thehoping items dominated, the growth followed pseudo-linear law; when the diffusionalitems dominated, it followed pseudo-power law with the exponentials lower than theintrinsical values. The numerical results were in good agreement with the meassuredkinetics of isothermal and cyclic oxidation of NiAl-0.1 Y (at. %) alloys in air at 1273K.展开更多

The mathematical model that describes diffusion of carbon and the precipitation of M23C6 and M7C3 has been studied. A criterion to judge when the transformation of M23C6 to M7C3 is over and M7C3 precipitates directly has been given in simulated calculation. By applying the model, the carburization of HK40 steel has been calculated by means of finite difference computation techniques. The pack carburization tests for the HK40 steel have been carried out at 1273 K. The comparison between the experimental and the calculated results show acceptable agreement.展开更多

Combining the weighted energy method and the comparison principle, the global exponential stability of noncritical traveling wavefronts (waves with speeds c 〉 c*, where c=c* is the minimal speed) is established, when the initial perturbations around the wavefront decays to zero exponentially in space as x → -∞, but it can be allowed arbitrary large in other locations, which improves the results in[9, 18, 21].展开更多

The nonlinearity is dissipative for large values of the state and the stochastic nature of the equation appears spatially distributed temporal white noise. The stochastic reaction-diffusion equation is recast as a continuous random dynamical system and asymptotic compactness for this demonstrated by using uniform estimates far-field values of solutions. The results are new and appear to be optimal.展开更多

Because each hepatocyte comes in contact with both vessels, these vessels form three-dimensional (3D) periodic network patterns. Confocal microscope images are useful for observing 3D structures;however, it is necessary to explicitly describe the vessel structures using 3D images of sinusoidal endothelial cells. For this purpose, we propose a new approach for image segmentation based on the Turing reaction-diffusion model, in which temporal and spatial patterns are self-organized. Turing conditions provided reliable tools for describing the 3D structures. Moreover, using the proposed method, the sinusoidal patterns of rats fed a high-fat/high-cholesterol diet were examined;these rats exhibited pathological features similar to those of human patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis related to metabolic syndrome. The findings showed that the parameter in diffusion terms differed significantly among the experimental groups. This observation provided a heuristic argument for parameter selection leading to pattern recognition problems in diseased rats.展开更多

The method combines the concepts that are employed in the finite volume and the finite element method together. The finite volume method is used to discretize the unsteady reaction-diffusion equation, while the finite element method is applied to estimate the gradient quantities at cell faces. Robustness and efficiency of the combined method have been evaluated on uniform rectangular grids by using available numerical solutions of the two-dimensional reaction-diffusion problems. The numerical solutions demonstrate that the combined method is stable and can provide accurate solution without spurious oscillation along the high-gradient boundary layers.展开更多

If the formation of these V-shaped bundles is disturbed, sensorineural hearing loss occurs. To quantify the distribution of V-shaped bundles, the use of a Turing-type reaction-diffusion (RD) system, including anisotropic diffusion, should be considered. We found that a periodic triangle pattern appears based on the anisotropy in the RD system. Then, using the proposed RD system, the image of the V-shaped bundle was examined. The results showed that the correlation between the RD pattern and V-shape bundles not only classifies the experimental result but also significantly differs in the number of directional changes in a set of V-shape bundle. Therefore, this process can help quantify the images of V-shaped bundles.展开更多

We argue that this description is valid only when the RD system is close to the Hopf bifurcation, and is not valid when a RD system is away from the onset. To test this, we study spirals and anti-spirals in the chlorite-iodide-malonic acid (CIMA) reaction and the corresponding OGLE. Numerical simulations confirm that the OGLE can only be applied to the CIMA reaction when it is very near the Hopf onset.展开更多

Since these stationary patterns consist of two types of stationary mode structure: kink and pulse, a mode analysis method is proposed to approximate the solutions of these localized basic modes and to analyse their stabilities. Using this method, it reconstructs the whole stationary patterns. The cellular mode structures (kink and pulse) in bistable media fundamentally differ from stationary patterns in monostable media showing spatial periodicity induced by a diffusive Taring bifurcation.展开更多
