BIO-LGCA: A cellular automaton modelling class for analysing collective cell migration

Fig 6

Pattern formation in the LGCA aggregation model.

Left: critical wave length obtained from the mean-field analysis. The critical wave length diverges for , and . Right: emergence of a periodic pattern from a homogeneous initial state. The horizontal distance of the orange dashed lines is equal to the critical wave length predicted by mean-field analysis. Parameters: .
