Abstract

Some of the ramifications of Wicke's work on creeping fronts in fixed beds are reviewed in this paper. His work laid the experimental foundations for model building by Vortmeyer and Jahnel on the one hand and by Amundson and Rhee on the other. These workers showed how slowly moving waves could arise in various models of these systems. The relation between such a creeping front and a travelling wave of fixed form is further discussed and some of the more recent biological applications are mentioned.
