Arrested coarsening, oscillations, and memory from a conserved phase separating nucleator in a self-straining cytoskeletal network: Videos, Plots and Data

The model proposed consists of filaments nucleating in droplets, being transported by motors and advecting the droplet fluid. This constitues a mechanical activator-inhibitor mechanism.

We show, that this model not only arrests coarsening, but also supports memory encoded in the spatial frequency of droplets and shows chaotic and oscillatory states for certain parameters. videos.zip In this files, all the videos corresponding to simulations shown in figure 6 (a) are save, together with parameter files for every simulation and the change rate of the system variables. Destinct parameters are given in the Filename. videos_c_0_3.zip In this files, all the videos corresponding to simulations shown in figure 6 (b) are save, together with parameter files for every simulation and the change rate of the system variables.
