Patterns on L-shaped membrane patches.

Results from calculations in 3d. A) Membrane densities of MinD at different time points. B) Bulk and membrane densities of MinD at different time points. C) Snapshots of the MinD density on L-shaped membrane patches of different thickness. The arrows indicate the propagation direction of the traveling waves. On the long arm of the patch of thickness 25 μm a standing wave is formed. Parameter values as in Table 1. The maximal grid size used in the computations was 2 μm on the membrane and 15 μm in the bulk.
