Abstract
Morphological features of the two-dimensional Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction were modeled with an algorithm involving only two simple parameters, one describing the productivity of the reaction on a local scale length and the other characterizing the delay or quiescent time after the localized reaction. Self-organizing wavelike structures, including single-and multiarmed spirals, were most easily generated.Keywords
