The Algorithmic Beauty of Sea Shells - The Virtual Laboratory
Hans Meinhardt
The pigment patterns on tropical shells are of great beauty and diversity. It has much in common with other dynamic systems that generate patterns, such as a wind-sand system that forms large dunes, or rain and erosion that form complex rami?ed river systems. A mollusk can only enlarge its shell at the shell margin.
