Bistable front dynamics in a contractile medium: Travelling wave fronts and cortical advection define stable zones of RhoA signaling at epithelial adherens junctions
Fig 8
Space-time plot of the response to an external perturbation at t = 40, that decreases the stability of NMIIA by a 2-fold increase of its decay rate and at the same time the contractility of NMIIA is switched off (i.e. Pe = 0).
The initial parameters are: Pe = 8, α = 0.02, κ1 = κ2 = 0.2, K = 1.
