Extended Data Fig. 5: Dissipation of the spatially averaged flow velocity over time.
From: Collective intercellular communication through ultra-fast hydrodynamic trigger waves
Results are obtained from the LNS model (Supplementary equation 27) for a low viscosity medium (water, ν = 1 mm2 s−1). The average is taken over all spatial points x, y ∈ [−1,1] mm, at the centre of the liquid film, z = 0 (the same data as are presented in Supplementary Video 5). Speeds are normalized with respect to their maximum. These simulation data may be compared directly with the experimental data in Fig. 2e.
