In this work we have developed several numerical examples of reaction-diffusion equations with growing domain. For this purpose we have used the Schnakenberg reaction model with parameters in space Turing. Therefore numerical tests are performed on the appearance of Turing patterns on surfaces that have high deformation rate. For the solution of reaction diffusion equations is presented a solution method on surfaces in three dimensions using the finite element method under the use of the total Lagrangian formulation. The results show that the formation of Turing patterns depends on the features of surface deformation and the rate at which change in position of each point of the domain. These results can explain some phenomena of change of pattern on the surface of the skin of animals that exhibit characteristic spots. (C) 2011 CIMNE (Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya).
