Brownian motion on the discontinuous structure of matter". The direction of the force of atomic bombardment is constantly changing, and at different times the particle is hit more on one side than another, leading to the seemingly random nature of the motion. The many-body interactions that yield the Brownian pattern cannot be solved by a model accounting for every involved molecule. In consequence only probabilistic models applied to molecular populations can be employed to describe it. Two such models of the statistical mechanics, due to Einstein and Smoluchowski are presented below. Another, pure probabilistic class of models is the class of the
Brownian surface Brownian surface A Brownian surface is a fractal surface generated via a fractal elevation function. For instance, in the three-dimensional case, where two variables "X" and "Y" are given as coordinates, the elevation function between any two points ("x", "y") and ("x", "y") can be set to have a mean or expected value that increases as the vector distance between ("x", "y") and ("x", "y"). There are, however, many ways of defining the elevation function. For instance, the fractional Brownian motion variable may be used, or various rotation functions may be used to achieve more natural looking surfaces. As with
