In the current paper the dynamics of a mixed parabolic-gradient system is examined. Thesystem, which is a coupled system of parabolic equations and gradient equations, acts as afirst model for the outgrowth of axons in a developing nervous system. For modeling considerationsit is relevant to know the influence of the parameters in the system and the sourceprofiles in the parabolic equations on the dynamics. These subjects are discussed togetherwith an approximation which uses the...
