Towards Physarum binary adders [PDF]

open access: yesBiosystems, 2010
Plasmodium of \emph{Physarum polycephalum} is a single cell visible by unaided eye. The plasmodium's foraging behaviour is interpreted in terms of computation. Input data is a configuration of nutrients, result of computation is a network of plasmodium's cytoplasmic tubes spanning sources of nutrients.

Logics for Physarum Chips [PDF]

open access: yesStudia Humana, 2016
The paper considers main features of two groups of logics for biological devices, called Physarum Chips, based on the plasmodium. Let us recall that the plasmodium is a single cell with many diploid nuclei.

Towards Physarum Engines [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2012
The slime mould Physarumpolycephalum is a suitable candidate organism for soft-matter robotics because it exhibits controllable transport, movement and guidance behaviour.

An active poroelastic model for mechanochemical patterns in protoplasmic droplets of Physarum polycephalum. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Motivated by recent experimental studies, we derive and analyze a two-dimensional model for the contraction patterns observed in protoplasmic droplets of Physarum polycephalum.

Basic Transitions of Physarum Polycephalum [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of computer science and information systems, 2015
The main charter of this work is the organism Physarum polycephalum, in particular plasmodium, Physarum's vegetative phase. During this latter form, the organism is more active and moves searching for food. Plasmodium behaves like a giant amoeba, and more interestingly, its way of foraging can be interpreted as a computation.

Microbial Art Fixation on Agar Plate: MicArt Fixation for Microbiology Teaching. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Basic Microbiol
ABSTRACT Art based science materials engage students for learning all of the unseen microscobic creatures in easy way microbiology field. In this study we aimed to visualize bacterial and fungal species in artistic way. Inoculation of the colourful strains on agar plate as painting the agar with bacteria, provides beautiful round scenes and clear ...

An inexpensive moist chamber culture technique for finding microbiota on live tree bark. [PDF]

open access: yesAppl Plant Sci
Abstract Premise Traditional moist chamber cultures (MCs) prepared in aseptic laboratory environments using sterile Petri dishes are commonly used to quantify the microbiota of rough‐bark tree species and woody vines. MCs are typically expensive and may be difficult to make, so a less expensive option made from easily available supplies was developed ...

Swarm Robot Exploration Strategy for Path Formation Tasks Inspired by Physarum polycephalum

open access: yesComplexity, 2021
Physarum polycephalum, a unicellular and multiheaded slime mould, can form highly efficient networks connecting separated food sources during the process of foraging.

Optimization of geometric parameters of hydraulic turbine runner in turbine mode based on ISMA and BPNN

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 11, Issue 11, Page 4155-4167, November 2023., 2023
A nonlinear model is constructed based on the BP neural network, with the geometric parameters of the runner as input and the water head or efficiency of the hydraulic turbine in the hydraulic turbine mode as output. Abstract The hydraulic turbine in turbine mode (TMHT) has significant advantages in residual energy recovery, but rapid optimization of ...
