We study a class of growth processes in which clusters evolve via exchange of particles. We show that depending on the rate of exchange there are three possibilities: I) Growth: Clusters grow indefinitely; II) Gelation: All mass is…
In exchange processes clusters composed of elementary building blocks, monomers, undergo binary exchange in which a monomer is transferred from one cluster to another. In assortative exchange only clusters with comparable masses participate…
The exchange-driven growth model describes the mean field kinetics of a population of composite particles (clusters) subject to pairwise exchange interactions. Exchange in this context means that upon interaction of two clusters, one loses…

Exchange-driven growth (EDG) is a process in which pairs of clusters interact by exchanging single unit with a rate given by a kernel $K(j,k)$. Despite EDG model's common use in the applied sciences, its rigorous mathematical treatment is…

Exchange-driven growth is a process in which pairs of clusters interact and exchange a single unit of mass. The rate of exchange is given by an interaction kernel $K(j,k)$ which depends on the masses of the two interacting clusters. In this…
When dissipative particles are left alone, their fluctuation energy decays due to collisional interactions, clusters build up and grow with time until the system size is reached. When the effective dissipation is strong enough, this may…

Cluster growth in a coagulating system of active particles (such as microswimmers in a solvent) is studied by theory and simulation. In contrast to passive systems, the net velocity of a cluster can have various scalings dependent on the…

The continuous generalized exchange-driven growth model (CGEDG) is a system of integro-differential equations describing the evolution of cluster mass under mass exchange. The rate of exchange depends on the masses of the clusters involved…
A microscopic model of adsorption in cluster forming systems with competing interaction is considered. The adsorption process is described by the master equation and modelled by a kinetic Monte Carlo method. The evolution of the particle…
We present large-scale molecular dynamics simulations to study the free evolution of granular gases. Initially, the density of particles is homogeneous and the velocity follows a Maxwell-Boltzmann (MB) distribution. The system cools down…

Dissipation in granular media leads to interesting phenomena as there are cluster formation and crystallization in non-equilibrium dynamical states. The freely cooling system is examined concerning the energy decay and the cluster evolution…
A combination of reaction-diffusion models with moving-boundary problems yields a system in which the diffusion (spreading and penetration) and reaction (transformation) evolve the system's state and geometry over time. These systems can be…
