Abstract

The stochastic Navier-Stokes equation essentially solves the mysteries underlying the morphogenetic processes of human beings having arms, legs, and inner organs, because seventy percent of living things are filled with water. First, a computational fluid dynamics code used on supercomputers reconstructs the three-dimensional structures of systems such as the human body with complex convexoconcave shapes. Second, the theory also explains the reason why inner organs such as heart and liver are left-right asymmetric at the later stage of the developmental process. Analysis based on the present fluid-dynamics on space and the molecular theory on time proposed in our previous reports will bring a new insight on the spatiotemporal structure of ontogeny.
