Three-Dimensional Cellular Automaton for Modeling of Self-Similar Evolution in Biofilm-Forming Bacterial Populations

Bacterial populations often form colonies and structures in biofilm. The paper aims to design suitable algorithms to simulate self-similar evolution in this context, specifically by employing a hybrid model that includes a cellular automaton for the bacterial cells and their dynamics. This is combin...
