Abstract
The multiple formation and the diffusion-controlled growth of noninteracting clusters of a new phase under cyclic potential sweep are numerically simulated. The factors influencing the shape of nucleation loops are analyzed. The possible application of the mathematical model for an analysis of the nucleation/growth processes is discussed.
