The effect of varying the parameter , while fixing all other parameters, on the trajectory of fibers. As the value of increases, more tissue goes from damaged (panel (a)) to regenerating (b) and back to normal (c). Interestingly the oscillatory behaviour is found somewhere in between of the two regimes corresponding to at the lower and at the higher edge of the interval values.
