Abstract
The 15-vertex model of Statistical Mechanics is studied on a square domain with partially oriented boundary. With DWBC the model would reduce to the six-vertex model, but more general boundary configurations are available. After establishing the dynamic version of the model we simulate with it to find the typical equilibrium states for a set of increasingly complex boundaries. Among others they yield almost isotropic non-trivial limit shapes even though the microscopic model is highly asymmetric.
