Target wave and spiral wave can regulate the collective behaviors of electrical activities in neuronal systems as a powerful 'pacemaker'. Disordered states occur when normal signal propagation among neurons is disturbed and neuronal disease could be induced. In this paper, a stable rotating spiral wave is developed as initial state that the two-dimensional neuronal network of Hindmarsh-Rose neuron shows distinct periodicity and regularity in space, and then, some parameters are changed sharply to model the destruction effect induced by external large forcing or internal collapse, and the destructed areas will be expanded to occupy a larger area by expanding the damaged boundary in random way. The collapse and instability of spiral wave, ordered states could be predicated by monitoring and analyzing the time series of some nodes. It could be useful to detect the emergence of disaster in some biological or ecological systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
