lgca.nove_interactions.go_or_grow

lgca.nove_interactions.go_or_grow(lgca)

Interaction step of the go-or-grow model without volume exclusion.

Cells switch between moving and resting states depending on the local density. Resting cells may proliferate and both phenotypes can die. After the switch and birth/death events, moving cells are reoriented uniformly among the velocity channels.

Parameters:

lgca (LGCA_1D, LGCA_Square, LGCA_Hex, or LGCA_Cubic) – LGCA instance that the interaction is applied to. The lattice may be one-, two-, or three-dimensional. The following keys in lgca.interaction_params are used: kappa, theta, r_b and r_d.

Notes

lgca.nodes is overwritten with the updated node configuration.
