A novel Monte Carlo procedure is applied to the study of the kinetics of grain growth in two dimensions. The model employed maps the microstructure onto a discrete lattice. Each lattice site is assigned a number. between 1 and Q. which indicates the local crystallographic orientation. The initial di
It is shown that limited surface diffusion may strongly modify properties of the film surface. For linear samples, when some analytical results are known for random deposition, the fractal dimension D of the surface is discussed. Model predictions and computer simulation shows that D < 1 for the sta
A technique for the determination of crystal growth rate by use of the mathematical model developed is presented. The suggested technique requires unsteady-state experimental data, so that the computer output, with the adjustments of growth rate parameters, can be matched to experimental data. With
