Abstract

We translate a standard approach of Field Theory into the framework of Cellular Automata (CA) to construct a parametrised class of stochastic 2D CA models simulating general explosion phenomena. The models exhibit morphological instabilities and phase transitions from bounded to unbounded growth.
