Numerical Simulation of Cell Growth Pattern and Determination of Fractal Dimension of Cell Cluster

Abstract:

Life system behaves self-similar properties from microcosms to macrostructure. Based on the cell growth roles, the cell cluster growth process is simulated. The sandbox method and box counting are used for determining the fractal dimension of cell associated with the geometrical structure of growing deterministic fractals. The fractal dimension of cell shape is estimated according to the slope of line between the numbers of boxes and box size in double logarithm coordinates.
