Outline / Purpose / Methods / Results
κ=0.5, L=0.008, ι=0.08, c˜=0.5, ε=0.1, γ=1.0
Density: M = 0.1(Low) Magnitude of contraction:K = 15 Speed of accumulation : f = 0.01 |
|
Static Network stable structure with sparsely- distributed active nodes, where motors accumulated | |
M = 0.59 (Middle) K = 15 f = 0.01 |
|
Active Network Active nodes become interconnected to form a network contracting globally, resulting in the self-rupture. | |
M = 1.0 (High) K = 15 f = 0.01 |
|
Aggregation The active nodes pull the surrounding nodes to form a chain-like assembly. | |
M = 1.0 (High) K = 45 f = 5 |
|
Asters Rapid separation into many isolated asters. This simulation resembles the pattern generated by chimera motors |
