Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan capable of replicating sexually in cats and asexually in other warm-blooded animals. By using a three dimensional mesh of both the brain and spleen, it is possible to simulate using a computational model to demonstrate the entire life-cycle within an intermediate host of the parasite as it completes the life-cycle using host cells of these organs. A cellular automata model is developed to demonstrate the dynamics of the parasite, where each cell follows the same set of rules for each discrete time-step. This cellular automata model allows for data simulations to be run of the parasite within a mouse and display graphical images and animations.

In this study, the corrosion behavior of biodegradable composites is modeled. These composites are made of Poly-Lactic acid and Magnesium with different volume fractions. The scanning electron microscopy images of these composites were taken, and statistical reconstruction of the composite based on scanning electron microscopy images was done by the phase recovery algorithm, the three-dimensional structure of this composite was extracted with this reconstruction, then a three-dimensional cellular automata model was developed to predict the corrosion of this composite. Results of experiments for the composite with 10% of Magnesium volume fraction were used to calibrate the parameters of the cellular automata model, and with these parameters, the results for the composite with 5% of Magnesium volume fraction was obtained, and with comparing these data with the results of the experiment, our model was validated. In the end, we estimated the mechanical properties of these composites and analyzed the results.
