| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this study was to develop a numerical, reaction- diffusion-chemotaxis based model that predicted fungal colony formation by taking into account the influence of nutrients, moisture (water activity), temperature, and the surface characteristics of building materials.. First, the results of fundamental experiments that measure the growth responses of colony size on culture media under various environmental conditions were conducted. Second, the mathematical models that reproduce colony formation on the medium and the numerical simulation intended for the experimental conditions were summarized. Fitting of the model coefficients was performed using the data of the fundamental experiments, and sensitivity analysis was executed. Finally, fungal growth on wall surfaces under high humidity environment was also discussed by proposed numerical model.
