Motion of Scroll Wave Filaments in the Complex Ginzburg-Landau Equation

Abstract: Explicit asymptotic analytical results are derived for the motion of scroll wave filaments in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. Good agreement with numerical tests is obtained. The analysis highlights the necessity of allowing for previously ignored small wave-number shifts in the propagation of the waves away from the filament. [S0031-9007(97) PACS numbers: 82.40.Ck, 47.32.Cc Rotating spiral waves are observed in a variety of physical, chemical, and biological settings including the Belousov-Zhabotins… Show more

“…In addition, there is no (at least, in the first order in 1/R) overall drift of the vortex ring in the direction perpendicular to the collapse motion. The collapse rate (called often "line tension") ν = 1 + b 2 appears to be in a reasonable agreement with the simulations [22]. This result generalises Keener's ansatz by including the curvatureinduced shift of the filament's wavenumber.…”

“…Recently, the dynamics of three-dimensional (3D) vortex lines in the CGLE has attracted substantial attention [21][22][23]. As a definition of a vortex line we accept a line singularity of the phase of a complex function A. Gabbay Ott and Guzdar [22] applied a generalisation of Keener's method for a scroll vortex in reaction-diffusion systems [20]. They derived that the ring of a radius R collapses in finite time according to the following evolution law…”

“…For a general review see e.g [6].The one-dimensional (1D) and the 2D isotropic cases have been investigated rather well [7]- [16]. A number of results have also been obtained in 3D [17,18]. Taking up some earlier work [19] we recently reported about spirals and ordered defect chains in the anisotropic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation(ACGLE) [20]Here A is the complex amplitude modulating the critical mode in space and time.…”

“…If there is a linear selection mechanism for large obliqueness angles at threshold, at least one of the tree conditions (3,8,9) must be invalid. The reason may be found in the truncation errors of the asymptotic expansion which leads to Eqs.…”

“…The reason may be found in the truncation errors of the asymptotic expansion which leads to Eqs. (3,8,9), the excluded effect of noise, or an insufficient description on the hydrodynamic level. All possible truncation errors become, by one way or another, large only for z 0 = O(d).…”
