A mathematical model is presented to describe the coupling between the concentration of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in the cambial region of a tree branch and the radial expansion of the branch during active growth. The main features of the model are (1) the branch cambium is treated as an approximat

The beautiful patterns apparent in wood grain have their origin in the alignment of fusiform initial cells in the vascular cambium of trees. We develop a mathematical model to describe the orientation of fusiform initial cells, and their interaction with the plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (auxin
The growth rates of aspergillus, fusarium, and penicillium microorganism colonies in 'Czapex Dox Agar' as a feed material, under room conditions, are observed to be linear. This phenomenon is mathematically modeled and exactly predicted on the basis of the exponential growth assumption of a single m
