What it is about

You will learn how self-organization and pattern formation in spatially extended, dissipative systems can be described mathematically. The focus areas are reaction–diffusion systems (waves, pulses, spiral waves, Turing structures) and coupled oscillators (Kuramoto transition, complex Ginzburg–Landau equation) as well as the simulation and classification of the resulting patterns.

What you will be able to do

  • Understand mechanisms of pattern formation in dissipative systems
  • Explain prototypical models for bistable, excitable and oscillatory reaction–diffusion regimes
  • Explain the origin of synchronization in coupled oscillators
  • Carry out simulations of reaction–diffusion systems and classify patterns

What the module consists of

  • VorlesungPresentation of thematically structured learning content and interdisciplinary connections; involvement of students in scientific discussions
  • ÜbungDeepening and practice of the content with problem examples and computer exercises; preparation for the exam

Teaching method

  • VorlesungConveying concepts with cross-references to promote analytical-physical thinking
  • Übung / ComputerübungenApplying and practicing methods, independent explanation and execution of simulations
