Bio-inspired oscillating media supporting spiral waves patterns

By focusing on bio-inspired oscillatory arrays, whose cells admit of a Lurpsilae description and are linearly connected through weak couplings, the occurrence of spiral waves has been studied through the phase deviation equation obtained by the joint application of the harmonic balance method and Malkinpsilas theorem. Furthermore, a simple condition for verifying the occurrence of spiral waves is derived. Finally the proposed technique is successfully applied to two-dimensional arrays of Chuapsilas circuits in order to prove that such WCONs admit of spiral waves as spatio-temporal patterns.
