Pattern formation by reaction-diffusion

  • Reaction-diffusion tutorial: nice introduction with videos
  • Gray-Scott model: great site with codes, theory and results of a simple chemical reaction-diffusion that generates very complicated patterns. Also links to relevant papers on pattern generation by reaction-diffusion equations.
