ChemotacticPolarization

class ChemotacticPolarization(environment: Environment<Double, Euclidean2DPosition>, reaction: NodeReaction<Double>, biomolecule: Biomolecule, ascendGrad: String) : AbstractLocalAction<Double>

Models the chemotactic polarization of a cell: the polarization versor of the cell is directed towards the highest concentration of biomolecule in the neighboring environment nodes if ascendGrad is up, or in the opposite direction if it is down.

Constructors

constructor(environment: Environment<Double, Euclidean2DPosition>, reaction: NodeReaction<Double>, biomolecule: Biomolecule, ascendGrad: String)

constructor(environment: Environment<Double, Euclidean2DPosition>, reaction: NodeReaction<Double>, biomolecule: String, ascendGrad: String)

Builds the action from the biomolecule name.

Properties

reaction

override val reaction: NodeReaction<Double>

The NodeReaction owning this action, hosted by targetNode.

targetNode

val targetNode: Node<Double>

Functions

cloneAction

override fun cloneAction(newReaction: Reaction<Double>): Action<Double>

Creates an equivalent action owned by newReaction, such as a reaction cloned onto a new node. An action targeting the host of its reaction targets the host of newReaction, which must then be a Node; an action targeting any other node keeps its target.

execute

open override fun execute()

Applies this action to the model.

shouldEqual

infix fun Action<*>.shouldEqual(other: Action<*>)

toString

open override fun toString(): String
