Stationary and oscillatory patterns in a coupled Brusselator model

This paper presents a numerical investigation into the pattern formation mechanism in the Brusselator model focusing on the interplay between the Hopf and Turing bifurcations. The dynamics of a coupled Brusselator model is studied in terms of wavelength and diffusion, thus providing insight into the generation of stationary and oscillatory patterns. The expected asymptotic behavior is confirmed by numerical simulations. The observed patterns include inverse labyrinth oscillations, inverse hexagonal oscillations, dot hexagons and parallel lines.
