A parallel, adaptive finite element scheme for modeling chemotactic biological systems

This paper considers the numerical approximation of complex spatial patterns and rapidly evolving transients in chemotactic biological systems using parallel adaptive multiscale schemes and algorithms. Transport processes in such biological systems are typically modeled by coupled systems of nonline...
