A substrate does not have to be solid to compute. It is possible to make a computer purely
from a liquid. I demonstrate this using a variety of experimental prototypes where a liquid …

Computational functionality has been implemented successfully on chemical reactions in
living systems. In the case of Belousov–Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction, this was achieved by …

Cellular automata (CA) have been used to simulate a variety of different chemical, biological
and physical phenomena. Their ability to emulate complex dynamics, emerging from simple …

Excitability is an intrinsic feature of a living matter. A commonly accepted feature of an
excitable medium is that a local excitation leads to a propagation of circular or spiral …

A liquid can be used to represent signals, actuate mechanical computing devices and to
modify signals via chemical reactions. We give a brief overview of liquid based computing …

A thin-layer Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) medium shows the rich dynamics of excitation
waves, including target waves, spiral waves and localised wave-fragments and their …

抄録 We investigate an identification of the dynamical behavior of wave segments
propagating in excitable media from viewpoints of root locus, stability region, and bode plot …

In this chapter, a high level, namely tumour level, model and a corresponding simulation
algorithm are introduced for the study of the effect of tumour-induced vessel displacement …

自然界には, 秩序のある 「リズム」 や 「パターン」 を自律的に形成する 「自己組織化現象」
がいたるところで見受けられる. 例えば, 生物の分野では, 動物の体表に現れる縞模様や一定の …

This chapter explores the design and implementation of new finite element software
framework hybrid tetrahedral grids (HyTeG). It presents the software concepts for two …
