Abstract

Stochastic Markov models describe various natural and technical processes. They are often used in the most diverse fields. We single out the Markov models with discrete time and small number of states. In specific cases, such models allow carrying out effective analysis and calculations. We discuss in detail the models with four states. The processes associated with the elliptic cracks are simulated.
