pde2path - a Matlab package for continuation and bifurcation in systems of PDEs

Applications. Here we give a list of selected applications of pde2path beyond the demos and tutorials; mostly our own work, for which pde2path directories (functions and scripts) are available upon request. At the top we list applications for which these directories are reasonably well cleaned up (almost demo like) and hence can directly be downloaded.
