The Geometrical Model for Cellulose Microfibril Orientation

The elements outlined above are cast into the form of a partial differential equation describing the evolution, both in space and in time, of the density of active cellulose synthases present in the plasma membrane. This equation takes the following form on a cylindrical cell of radius R 

In all other cases cp = 0. The parameter y controls the shape of the synthase production curve and ranges between zero and one. Synthase production stops when the maximum density
