Inhomogeneous Poisson point process nucleation: comparison of analytical solution with cellular automata simulation

Microstructural evolution in three dimensions of nucleation and growth transformations is simulated by means of cellular automata (CA). In the simulation, nuclei are located in space according to a heterogeneous Poisson point processes. The simulation is compared with exact analytical solution recen...
