Multiple-peak traveling waves of the Gray-Scott model
We study a reaction-diffusion system which models the pre-mixed isothermal autocatalytic chemical reaction of order m (m > 1) between two chemical species, a reactant A and an auto-catalyst B, A + m B --> (m+1) B, and a linear decay B -->C, where C ...

Modelling Bacteria-Inspired Dynamics with Networks of Interacting Chemicals
One approach to understanding how life-like properties emerge involves building synthetic cellular systems that mimic certain dynamical features of living cells such as bacteria.

On the Emergence of Autonomous Chemical Systems through Dissipation Kinetics
This work addresses the kinetic requirements for compensating the entropic cost of self-organization and natural selection, thereby revealing a fundamental principle in biology.

Robust Adaptation and Homeostasis by Autocatalysis [PDF]
Robust homeostatic mechanisms are essential for the protection and adaptation of organisms in a changing and challenging environment. Integral feedback is a control-engineering concept that leads to robust, i.e., perturbation-independent, adaptation and homeostatic behavior in the controlled variable. Addressing two-component negative feedback loops of

This study examined the effect of ingredients mixing sequence to the vulcanization kinetics of natural rubber. The effects of mixing temperature, vulcanization temperature, and the carbon black type upon the kinetics were also studied by using rheography

Anion–π catalysis on carbon allotropes
Anion–π catalysis, introduced in 2013, stands for the stabilization of anionic transition states on π-acidic aromatic surfaces. Anion–π catalysis on carbon allotropes is particularly attractive because high polarizability promises access to really strong

How did chemicals first become organized into systems capable of self-propagation and adaptive evolution? One possibility is that the first evolvers were chemical ecosystems localized on mineral surfaces and composed of sets of molecular species that ...

Platinum Group Metals: A Review of Resources, Production and Usage with a Focus on Catalysts
The major applications of PGMs are as catalysts in automotive industry, petroleum refining, environmental (gas remediation), industrial chemical production (e.g., ammonia production, fine chemicals), electronics, and medical fields.

Autocatalysis and organocatalysis with synthetic structures [PDF]
The discovery of ribozymes led to the proposal of an RNA world, where a single type of molecule was supposedly capable of self-replication and chemical catalysis. We show here that both autocatalysis and organocatalysis can be engineered into a synthetic structure.
