Neutrophil Adhesion Migration and Phagocytosis

length: 2:50 Source: Youtube Author: Contourgreg
A neutrophil travels along the capillary endothelial layer. Endothelial cells are triggered to express selectins on their surface for neutrophil integrin-mediated adherence. Transendothelial migration allows the neutrophil to traverse the blood endothelial layer. Squeezing into the extra-capillary space where.... more


PixieDust - dynamic maze shortest path

length: 2:30 Source: Youtube Author: zeffman
Solution of the shortest path from home point to end point (small black rectangle). End point is changed halfway point. Note initial swarm confusion whilst diffusion wavefront re-establishes itself.


Steinbock maze - shorter path

length: 0:54 Source: Youtube Author: zeffman
Agent solution of steinbock's from a different start point


Steinbock maze - start at far end

length: 0:52 Source: Youtube Author: zeffman
Solution of Steinbock's maze by chemotactic agents sensing concentration gradient.


PixieDust - Dynamic Skeletonisation

length: 0:30 Source: Youtube Author: zeffman
Illustration of how the agent population can dynamically respond to a changing environment. The agents act in a chemorepulsive manner, moving away from a diffusive skeleton to the medial axis of the shape. When the shape changes, they automatically respond to the reconfiguration of the wavefront.
