Flocculation in brewing yeasts: a computer simulation study.
A new simulator, INDISIM-FLOC, based on the individual-based simulator INDISIM, is used to examine the predictions of two different models of yeast flocculation. The first, proposed by Calleja is known as the "addition" model. The second, proposed by Stratford is known as the "cascade" model. The simulations show that the latter exhibits a better qualitative agreement with available experimental data.
