On 2D plane positive u values are displayed by the red color (negative "tail" is not shown). v values are displayed by the green color. This script uses simple explicit algorithm and 1024×1024 float32 textures with the Neumann (CLAMP_TO_EDGE) boundary conditions. It makes 2 it time steps per frame.

In 3 seconds the script begins to plot the path of the spiral wave tip (a small cycloid).
