The model called diffusion-limited aggregation(DLA) was introduced by Witten and Sander(1981).... The rules of the model are simple. One puts a seed particle at the origin of the lattice. Another particle is launched far from the origin and is allowed to walk at random(diffuse) until it arrives at a site adjacent to the seed particle. Then it is stopped, and another particle is launched which stops when adjacent to the two occupied sites, and so forth. In this way large clusters can be generated whose structure is expected to be characteristic for objects grown under diffusion-limited conditions. 3, record 1, English, - diffusion%2Dlimited%20aggregation

Diffusion-limited aggregation with disaggregation (Botet and Julien 1985) is an interesting modification of the original DLA model, because during its simulation an equilibrium type regime is attained. 3, record 1, English, - diffusion%2Dlimited%20aggregation

The DLA process might well represent the diffusion of zinc ions through a two-dimensional electrolytic solution. When ions come in contact with an aggregation of metallic zinc at an electrode, they immediately bond, with their atomic mates in the aggregate. 4, record 1, English, - diffusion%2Dlimited%20aggregation

Gyrolasers [...] En dessous d'une certaine vitesse de rotation, la rétrodiffusion par les miroirs d'une faible partie des ondes incidentes entraîne un couplage des deux oscillateurs : les deux ondes contrarotatives sont en phases et W mesuré =0. Cause : variation d'indice et irrégularités de surface des miroirs. Solution : une roue d'activation superpose mécaniquement à la rotation du bloc un mouvement sinusoïdal de rotation d'effet moyen nul, afin d'être assez souvent dans la zone de fonctionnement linéaire. Mais il y a création lors du passage dans la zone aveugle d'un bruit dit de «marche au hasard» prépondérant à court terme.

The laser gyro need not be mechanically dithered. The same result may be achieved by optical devices. A Faraday cell is a piece of crystal, which changes the phase of a light wave traveling through it as a function of an applied magnetic field. The effect is nonreciprocal. A light beam traveling in one direction is advanced in phase, while a light beam traveling in the other direction is retarded in phase. Reversing the magnetic field reverses the effect. Changing the phase of the light beam has the same effect on frequency as changing the path length. This scheme eliminates the vibration problem, but retains the random walk angular position error. 2, record 7, English, - random%20walk

[...] si le rayon de Larmor de la particule est tel qu'il existe des valeurs de l'angle pour lesquelles la relation (3.16) est vérifiée, la particule subira alors une déflection qui fera varier son angle d'attaque, entraînant du même coup une déviation de sa trajectoire originelle. Le processus alors engagé amènera la particule à rencontrer d'autres résonances qui entraîneront alors une marche au hasard pour la particule. Cette marche au hasard est la base du processus diffusif qui veut qu'une particule perde rapidement le souvenir de sa trajectoire initiale. L'exemple présenté ici est évidemment simpliste (la relation 3.16 n'est pas [toujours valide]). Néanmoins, dans le cas des champs magnétiques chaotiques à trois dimensions, l'idée de résonance reste. Ainsi, il faudra que la particule suive une relation similaire à (3.16) pour qu'elle rencontre des résonances avec le chaos. Si le rayon de Larmor d'une particule est très inférieur (ou supérieur) à la plus petite longueur d'onde du champ chaotique, elle ne subira pas d'effets de diffusion spatiale ou angulaire. 3, record 7, French, - cheminement%20al%C3%A9atoire

[Ring laser gyro] Gyro noise has many causes, thus there are a large number of ways to specify gyro noise and model its effect. The most basic model for gyro noise is a random constant or bias. The random bias can be modeled in the same way the null-shift bias is modeled, and the two effects can be added together. Gyro noise may also be modeled as a random walk(i. e., integrated white noise). 1, record 11, English, - gyro%20noise
