On the band-width of stable nonlinear stripe patterns in finite size systems
Mirko Ruppert,
Walter Zimmermann
Abstract:Nonlinear stripe patterns occur in many different systems, from the small scales of biological cells to geological scales as cloud patterns. They all share the universal property of being stable at different wavenumbers q, i.e., they are multistable. The stable wavenumber range of the stripe patterns, which is limited by the Eckhaus-and zigzag instabilities even in finite systems for several boundary conditions, increases with decreasing system size. This enlargement comes about because suppressing degrees of … Show more
