Abstract
A theoretical model for fractal growth of DLA-clusters in two- and three-dimensional Euclidean space is proposed. This model allows to study some statistical properties of growing clusters in two different situations: in the static case (the cluster is fixed), and in the case when the growing structure has a nonzero rotation around its germ. By the direct computer simulation the growth of rotating clusters is investigated. The fractal dimension of such clusters as a function of the rotation velocity is found. It is shown that for small enough velocities the fractal dimension is growing, but then, with increasing rotation velocity, it tends to the unity.
