A Monte-Carlo approach of cellular pattern evolution during directiona
l solidification of a binary alloy has been carried out by imposing a
non-uniform probability distribution of particle emission from the par
ticle source, as an approach to the contribution of solute redistribut
ion to the interface evolution. Both the bulk and interface diffusion
have been involved in the simulation, and coarsening of the cellular p
atterns with time has been clearly revealed. The remarkable influence
of the interface relaxation and the solute redistribution on the profi
le bf;solidifying interface has been presented.
