Abstract
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.
