Two-component model for the growth of porous subsurface layers

This paper studies a kinetic model that describes the interaction of two fluctuating densities. The model makes it possible to stably reproduce the growth of dense, porous, and fractal structures near the surface of solids placed in an active medium. The solutions of local and nonlocal equations of the model are studied, and the results are used to comment on the possible scenarios of the evolution of systems whose behavior can be reduced to such a model. Finally, the exponents of the growth of the front width in a steady-state regime are calculated for various values of the parameters. Zh. éksp. Teor. Fiz. 114, 1500–1515 (October 1998)
