A mathematical model of discrete attachment to a cellulolytic biofilm using random DEs

We propose a new mathematical framework for the addition of stochastic attachment to biofilm models, via the use of random ordinary differential equations. We focus our approach on a spatially explicit model of cellulolytic biofilm growth and formation that comprises a PDE-ODE coupled system to desc...
