Pattern formation in size-polydisperse adsorption: fractal properties and transition to order
Random sequential adsorption of particles with size polydispersity (PRSA) is investigated. For the PRSA with a power-law small-size distribution, P ( R ) ~ R ~ l, we reveal the fractal nature of the arising patterns. The fractal dimension Df is found to decrease from 2 to DA = 1.305 .... the fractal dimension of the Apollonian packing, as ~ increases from 0 to ~ . We examine PRSA by a combinati...
متن کاملPhase transition kinetics in polydisperse systems
The use of moment densities for understanding phase transition kinetics in polydisperse systems is discussed. The role of size partitioning and the distinction between quenched and annealed phase diagrams is emphasised. Polydisperse FloryÈHuggins theory is used as an example, and CahnÈHilliard type equations for the local moment densities are constructed for this model via a random phase approx...
متن کاملFractal Pattern Formation at Elastic-Plastic Transition in Heterogeneous Materials
Fractal patterns are observed in computational mechanics of elastic-plastic transitions in two models of linear elastic/perfectly plastic random heterogeneous materials: (1) a composite made of locally isotropic grains with weak random fluctuations in elastic moduli and/or yield limits and (2) a polycrystal made of randomly oriented anisotropic grains. In each case, the spatial assignment of ma...
متن کاملKinetics and fractal properties of the random sequential adsorption of line segments
The random sequential adsorption (RSA) of infinitely-thin line segments is studied by computer simulation. It is shown that the exponent for the time dependence of the surface coverage increases beyond the value 0.33, recently reported by Sherwood, to a value of 0.38, at later times. It is also argued that the fractal dimension of the adsorbed lines is about 1.8, making use of a previous result...
متن کاملSpontaneous optical fractal pattern formation.
We report, for the first time, spontaneous nonlinear optical spatial fractals. The proposed generic mechanism employs intrinsic nonlinear dynamics both to generate an initial pattern seed and to fill out structure across decades of spatial scale. We demonstrate this in one of the simplest of nonlinear optical systems, composed of a Kerr slice and a single-feedback mirror. In this case, the smal...
