Journal ArticleDOI
RNA virus evolution via a fitness-space model.
TL;DR: A mean-field theory for the evolution of RNA virus populations, which operates with a distribution of the population in a one-dimensional fitness space, and is valid for sufficiently smooth fitness landscapes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mast cells and tumor angiogenesis.
TL;DR: Tumor angiogenesis factor elicits a strong vasoproliferative response when implanted upon the chorioallantoic membrane of the chick embryo and mast cells that have been isolated from retired breeder Sprague‐Dawley rats fail to evoke a vascular reaction when implanted on the CAM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulations of flame acceleration and deflagration-to-detonation transitions in methane–air systems
TL;DR: In this article, a single-step reaction mechanism was used to simulate flame acceleration and deflagration-to-detonation transitions in large obstructed channels filled with a stoichiometric methane-air mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geometrical models of interface evolution
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a class of models for the motion of a boundary between time-dependent phase domains in which the interface itself satisfies an equation of motion, and formulate local equations of motion as tractable simplifications of the complex nonlocal dynamics that govern moving-interface problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Directional sensing in eukaryotic chemotaxis: A balanced inactivation model
TL;DR: This work proposes a directional sensing mechanism in which two second messengers are produced at equal rates and proposes that the dynamics of a heterotrimeric G protein might allow for a specific biochemical realization of this model.
