| Research Abstract |
We studied the problem of pattern formation by the approach from a continuous model and a particle model to reproduce the morphology diagram of bacterial colonies pattern formation by mathematical models. We were able to reproduce five kinds of patterns in the continuous models with non-linear diffusion term, but were not able to completely reproduce the morphology diagram. In addition, we built the many particles model in continuous field with the possibility of the reproduction of the morphology diagram.
