A three-dimensional (3D) multi-phase field model was established to simulate normal grain growth in pure iron. The advanced visualization technology was used to extract the related data for individual grains, which can clearly display the grain morphology with distinct grain boundary surface as well as the space distribution of neighboring grains?Based on the simulation results, the grain growth kinetics model was described, which is in conformity with Burke and Turnbull?s parabolic law. The phenomenon of a ?Hillert regime? in 3D grain growth and the topological transformation mechanism were investigated. The grain size distributions under different time evolution showed a good agreement with the Hillert distribution. The details of grain growth, especially grain size distribution and volume growth rate, were analyzed. The models of von Neumann-Mullins and Hilgensfeldt for predicting the volumetric growth rate were compared. The volumetric growth rate was approximately zero when the number of grain sides was close to 13.7. The multi-phase field simulation can be used to analyze the dynamic evolution of the topological relationship of grains and reveal the general law of normal grain growth quantitatively.

A Monte Carlo procedure has been used to study the ordering of both two and three dimensional (2d and 3d) Potts Hamiltonians, further to the work of Anderson et al. For the 3d lattice, the short time growth rate is found to be much slower than previously reported, though the simulated microstructure is in agreement with the earlier studies. We propose a new stochastic model that gives good agreement with the simulations.

The present study, part of an ongoing investigation of normal and dysmorphic development of the human fetal oronasal capsule, examined the rate of growth of the vomer. For comparative purposes, 29 human fetal specimens (20 “normal” and 9 cleft lip and palate [CLP]) were celloidin embedded, sectioned, stained with hematoxylin and eosin, and serially digitized. The specimens ranged from 8 to 21 weeks in postmenstrual age. The application of a well-documented three-dimensional reconstruction technique provided quantification of several aspects of the vomer. CLP vomer length and volume were growing at a faster rate In the 8 to 21 week age range. Growth curves were produced by plotting length and volume against postmenstrual age and a significant difference was noted between the slopes (growth rate) of the linear component of the normal and CLP growth curves for vomer length (p < .001) and volume (p < .001). This study tested the hypothesis of a more rapidly growing 8 to 21 week CLP vomer and observed that the growth trends of the CLP vomer are similar to those of the CLP nasal septum, which also was found to possess a significantly larger (p < .001) volumetric growth rate throughout the course of the vomer. Comparative findings suggest that a pathogenetic correlate of CLP is the rapid enlargement of the midline structures of the oral and nasal capsules.

Kernel growth after anthesis is simulated as a function of the potential kernel growth rate, current photosynthate production and mobilisation of stored reserves. The potential growth rate of the kernel is simulated as two temperature-sensitive processes, cell production and cell growth. The difference between the potential and actual growth rates of the kernel depends on the carbon supply to the free space of the kernel endosperm, while the carbon supply is itself affected by the actual kernel growth rate. Sensitivity analysis showed that the growth rate of the grain per plant is most sensitive to the potential growth rate of the kernel and number of kernels per plant. This model is able to simulate the observed rates of grain growth and leaf senescence from anthesis to physiological maturity for wheat plants grown in two CO2 concentrations. The simulated temperature response of grain growth agrees well with the experimenal observations.

A fully-comprehensive three-dimensional simulation of a CVD epitaxial growth process has been undertaken and is reported here. Based on a previously developed simulation platform, which connects fluid dynamics and thermal temperature profiling with chemical species kinetics, a complete model of the reaction process in a low pressure hot-wall CVD reactor has been developed. Close agreement between the growth rate observed experimentally and simulated theoretically has been achieved. Such an approach should provide the researcher with sufficient insight into the expected growth rate in the reactor as well as any variations in growth across the hot zone.

A pot experiment was conducted in the rabi (post rainy) seasons of 2001 and 2002 to study the genotypic differences in grain growth rate and endogenous hormonal content in the developing grains of hexaploid and tetraploid wheat. The endogenous hormonal contents of grains in both the ploidy levels had changed in sequence. At 5 days after anthesis (DAA), gibberellic acid (GA3); at 15 DAA (rapid growth phase), indole-acetic acid (IAA); at 25 DAA (dough stage), abscisic acid (ABA) were maximum. At 35 DAA, all the endogenous hormonal level decreased and among the hormones, ABA was highest followed by IAA and GA3. Hexaploids recorded higher concentrations of endogenous hormones (13.38% IAA, 17.89% GA3, and 14.7% ABA) on fresh weight basis and resulted in higher seed weight (56.99 mg/grain) and grain growth rate (0.009 g/g/day) compared to tetraploids (49.08 mg/grain; 0.008 g/g/day) on dry weight basis by better mobilization of photosynthates during grain filling. Key Words: Grain growth rate, hormones, indole-acetic acid, gibberellic acid, abscisic acid. doi:10.3329/bjar.v33i3.1608 Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 33(3) : 493-502, September 2008
