We variationally derive a thermodynamically consistent model for surface evolution under the influence of free adatoms. The resulting system of nonlinear partial differential equat...
In this paper the issue of system evolution is addressed. Activity Theory and the concept of exapansive cycles are reviewed as theories to explain systemic evolution. Contradictio...
