It is shown that the critical properties of a recently studied model for nonequilibrium wetting are robust if one extends the dynamic rules by single-particle diffusion on terraces of the wetting layer. Examining the behavior at the critical point and along the phase transition line, we identify a special point in the phase diagram where detailed balance of the dynamical processes is partially broken.

Nonequilibrium wetting
When a nonequilibrium growing interface in the presence of a wall is considered a nonequilibrium wetting transition may take place. This transition can be studied trough Langevin equations or…
Dynamic wetting with two competing adsorbates.
TLDR
The dynamic properties of a model for wetting with two competing adsorbates on a planar substrate and finite systems exhibit two metastable states, each dominated by one of the species are studied.
Influence of turbulent mixing on critical behavior of directed percolation process: Effect of compressibility.
TLDR
This work assumes that the random environment can be described by means of compressible velocity fluctuations and calculates critical exponents of the directed percolation process, and finds intriguing nonuniversal behavior related to the mutual effect of compressibility and advection.
Non-equilibrium phase transitions with long-range interactions
This paper gives an overview of recent progress in the field of non-equilibrium phase transitions into absorbing states with long-range interactions. It focuses on two possible types of long-range…
Critical laminar shear-temperature effects on the nano- and mesoscale structure of a model fat and its relationship to oil binding and rheological properties.
TLDR
Crystallization under higher shear rates led to the formation of a weak network with low oil-binding capacity and promoted the asymmetric growth of nanoplatelets, called here "solid-lipid meso-particles".

Nonequilibrium wetting of finite samples
We study, as a canonical model for wetting far from thermal equilibrium, a Kardar–Parisi–Zhang interface growing on top of a hard-core substrate. Depending on the average growth velocity, the model…
Wetting under nonequilibrium conditions.
TLDR
A mean-field approximation is shown to reproduce the main features of the phase diagram of a recently introduced model for nonequilibrium wetting in (1+1) dimensions, while providing indications for the behavior of the wetting transition in higher dimensions.
First-order phase transition in a (1+1)-dimensional nonequilibrium wetting process
TLDR
It is found that the wet and the nonwet states coexist and are both thermodynamically stable in a domain of the dynamical parameters that define the model, in contrast with equilibrium transitions where coexistence of thermodynamic stable states takes place only on the transition line.
Dynamic scaling of growing interfaces.
TLDR
A model is proposed for the evolution of the profile of a growing interface that exhibits nontrivial relaxation patterns, and the exact dynamic scaling form obtained for a one-dimensional interface is in excellent agreement with previous numerical simulations.

Nonlinear diffusion is studied in the presence of multiplicative noise. The nonlinearity can be viewed as a "wall" limiting the motion of the diffusing field. A dynamic phase transition occurs when…
