Simulations on Some Surface Growth Models

This repository contains simulations for various surface growth models, developed initially as a final exam project for Math-7820 (Applied Stochastic Processes I), Fall 2023 at Auburn University. It was further expanded as a course project for Math-7830 (Applied Stochastic Processes II), Spring 2024. More information about the courses can be found here: Math-7820 Fall 2023.

These simulations provide insights into the dynamics and characteristics of surface growth processes, inspired by theoretical models and real-world applications.
