We investigate the growth of self-organized tubes formed by injection of metal salt solutions into silicate solution. The wall thickness increases strictly in an inward direction and obeys square root functions suggesting the presence of a traveling reaction-diffusion front in the radial direction. We also demonstrate the construction of multi-layered tubes.
我们研究了通过向硅酸盐溶液中注入金属盐溶液而形成的自组织管的生长。壁的厚度严格地向内部增加,并遵循平方根函数,表明在径向方向上存在一个移动的反应-扩散前沿。我们还展示了多层管的构建。
