摘要
The effects of diffusion anisotropy on pattern formation in bistable media are studied using a FitzHugh-Nagumo reaction-diffusion model. A relation between the normal velocity of a front and its curvature is derived and used to identify distinct spatiotemporal patterns induced by the diffusion anisotropy. In a wide parameter range anisotropy is found to have an ordering effect: initial patterns evolve into stationary or breathing periodic stripes parallel to one of the principal axes. In a different parameter range, anisotropy is found to induce spatiotemporal chaos confined to one space dimension, a state we term "stratified chaos."
