Abstract: In the current paper a numerical approach is presented for solving a system of coupled gradient-diffusion equations which acts as a first model for the growth of axons in brain tissue. The presented approach can be applied to a much wider range of problems, but we focus on the axon growth problem. In our approach time stepping is performed with a Rosen brock solver with approximate matrix factorization. For the JacobJan an approximation is used that simplifies the solution of the coupled...
