  2. Stable distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_distribution

    The stable distribution family is also sometimes referred to as the Lévy alpha-stable distribution, after Paul Lévy, the first mathematician to have studied it. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Of the four parameters defining the family, most attention has been focused on the stability parameter, α {\displaystyle \alpha } (see panel).

  3. Logistic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map

    When an orbital diagram is drawn for the logistic map, it is possible to see how the branch representing the stable periodic orbit splits, which represents a cascade of period-doubling bifurcations. Bifurcation diagram of the period-doubling bifurcation cascade occurring between parameters r 1 = 3 {\displaystyle r_{1}=3} and a ∞ = 3.56994 ...

  4. Fick's laws of diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick's_laws_of_diffusion

    Under an idealized reaction condition for A + B → product in a diluted solution, Smoluchovski suggested that the molecular flux at the infinite time limit can be calculated from Fick's laws of diffusion yielding a fixed/stable concentration gradient from the target molecule, e.g. B is the target molecule holding fixed relatively, and A is the ...

  5. Molecular diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_diffusion

    The self-diffusion coefficient of neat water is: 2.299·10 −9 m 2 ·s −1 at 25 °C and 1.261·10 −9 m 2 ·s −1 at 4 °C. [2] Chemical diffusion occurs in a presence of concentration (or chemical potential) gradient and it results in net transport of mass. This is the process described by the diffusion equation.

  6. Diffusion curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_curve

    Diffusion curves are vector graphic primitives for creating smooth-shaded images. Each diffusion curve partitions the 2D graphics space through which it is drawn, defining different colors on either side. When rendered, these colors then spread into the regions on either side of the curve in a way analogous to diffusion. The colors may also be ...

  7. Diffusion equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_equation

    The diffusion equation is a parabolic partial differential equation. In physics, it describes the macroscopic behavior of many micro-particles in Brownian motion , resulting from the random movements and collisions of the particles (see Fick's laws of diffusion ).

  8. Lévy flight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lévy_flight

    A Lévy flight is a random walk in which the step-lengths have a stable distribution, [1] a probability distribution that is heavy-tailed. When defined as a walk in a space of dimension greater than one, the steps made are in isotropic random directions. Later researchers have extended the use of the term "Lévy flight" to also include cases ...

  9. Reaction–diffusion system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction–diffusion_system

    In recent times, reaction–diffusion systems have attracted much interest as a prototype model for pattern formation. [20] The above-mentioned patterns (fronts, spirals, targets, hexagons, stripes and dissipative solitons) can be found in various types of reaction–diffusion systems in spite of large discrepancies e.g. in the local reaction ...
