Mathematical modelling of the Czochralski crystal growth process

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 142-149). === In this document a mathematical model for the Czochralski crystal growth process is developed. The trend in current research involves developing cumbersome numerical simulations that provide little or no understanding of the underlying physic...
