The effect of boundary conditions on the mesoscopic lattice Boltzmann method: Case study of a reaction-diffusion based model for Min-protein oscillation

Min-protein oscillation in Escherichia coli has an essential role in controlling the accurate placement of the cell division septum at the middle-cell zone of the bacteria. This biochemical process has been successfully described by a set of reaction-diffusion equations at the macroscopic level. The...
