| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study we focused on the crawling motion in mollusks, and the purpose was to understand a mechanism on dynamic pattern formation by muscle contractions in gastropods and cephalopods. Based on the experimental observations, the numerical simulations of our proposed model constructed by the coupling of muscle contractions and network of nerves showed various two-dimensional patterns according to the intensity of visual stimulus. It was also indicated that a non-uniform network of nerves affects the patterns.
