Figure 7

Cross-section of a hexagonal array of cylinders: cylinders are grey and the surrounding matrix is white. To avoid the edge effect, the conventional FD method simulates the whole image and takes signals from the central barely affected domain for long diffusion times; whereas the improved FD method with RPBC only needs to simulate a unit cell (in the black box).
