  In this paper we extend previous work on the relation between the complex
structure moduli of the underlying Calabi-Yau manifold in five dimensional
supergravity with the time evolution of an embedded 3-brane. We numerically
solve the fields' equations for such a construction and focus on dust and
radiation filled branes; with the possible application of modeling the universe
as a brane-world. It is shown that in both cases the time evolution of the
moduli causally connects to the expansion of the brane-world. We also find that
in most cases considered there is an early short period of rapid accelerative
expansion, indicating an inflationary epoch. We report on these results;
leaving analysis of the underlying causes for future work.
