The Smoluchowski coagulation equation (SCE) is a population balance model that describes the time evolution of cluster size distributions resulting from particle aggregation. Although it is formally a mass-conserving system, solutions may…
The coagulation (or aggregation) equation was introduced by Smoluchowski in 1916 to describe the clumping together of colloidal particles through diffusion, but has been used in many different contexts as diverse as physical chemistry,…
This work outlines an exact combinatorial approach to finite coagulating systems through recursive equations and use of generating function method. In the classic approach the mean-field Smoluchowski coagulation is used. However, the…
The initial purpose of this work is to provide a probabilistic explanation of a recent result on a version of Smoluchowski's coagulation equations in which the number of aggregations is limited. The latter models the deterministic evolution…
We present a rigorous thermodynamic treatment of irreversible binary aggregation. We construct the Smoluchowski ensemble as the set of discrete finite distributions generated from the same initial state of all monomers upon fixed number…
Temperature-dependent Smoluchowski equations describe the ballistic agglomeration. In contrast to the standard Smoluchowski equations for the evolution of cluster densities with constant rate coefficients, the temperature-dependent…
We consider Smoluchowski's coagulation equation with a kernel of the form $K = 2 + \epsilon W$, where $W$ is a bounded kernel of homogeneity zero. For small $\epsilon$, we prove that solutions approach a universal, unique self-similar…
An overview of the author's papers on the new approach to the Brownian coagulation theory and its generalization to the diffusion-limited reaction rate theory is presented. The traditional diffusion approach of the Smoluchowski theory for…
We study the solutions of the Smoluchowski coagulation equation with a regularisation term which removes clusters from the system when their mass exceeds a specified cut-off size, M. We focus primarily on collision kernels which would…
Over the past decade, a combinatorial framework for discrete, finite, and irreversibly aggregating systems has emerged. This work reviews its progress, practical applications, and limitations. We outline the approach's assumptions and…
We show that models for homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation of D-dimensional droplets in a d-dimensional medium are described in mean-field by a modified Smoluchowski equation for the distribution N(s,t) of droplets masses s, with…
In this paper we show how the method of Zakharov transformations may be used to analyze the stationary solutions of the Smoluchowski aggregation equation for arbitrary homogeneous kernel. The resulting massdistributions are of Kolmogorov…
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…
Modeling of aggregation processes in space-inhomogeneous systems is extremely numerically challenging since complicated aggregation equations -- Smoluchowski equations are to be solved at each space point along with the computation of…
Smoluchowski's coagulation equation is a mean-field model describing the growth of clusters by successive mergers. Since its derivation in 1916 it has been studied by several authors, using deterministic and stochastic approaches, with a…
We present an end-to-end description of the formation process of globular clusters (GCs) which combines a treatment for their formation and dynamical evolution within galaxy haloes with a state-of-the-art semi-analytic simulation of galaxy…
We present a detailed study of the statistics of a system of diffusing aggregating particles with a steady monomer source. We emphasise the case of low spatial dimensions where strong diffusive fluctuations invalidate the mean-field…
The continuous generalized exchange-driven growth model (CGEDG) is a coagulation-fragmentation equation that describes the evolution of the macroscopic cluster size distribution induced by a microscopic dynamic of binary exchanges of masses…
We derive a satisfying rate of convergence of the Marcus-Lushnikov process toward the solution to Smoluchowski's coagulation equation. Our result applies to a class of homogeneous-like coagulation kernels with homogeneity degree ranging in…
We study the time dependence of the grain size distribution N(r,t) during crystallization of a d-dimensional solid. A partial differential equation including a source term for nuclei and a growth law for grains is solved analytically for…
