concept is illustrated for a 2D case in Fig. 10 and is discussed by Reinhold and
Briesen [11]. In context of this work Reinhold and Briesen [8] described how they
detected that face distances became too large and limited their growth accordingly.
The evolution of the constrained face distances of a single crystal of the simulated
population is displayed in Fig. 19. The corresponding surface areas of the same
crystal are displayed in Fig. 20. It can be observed that the fast growing (111) face
was initially able to grow with its maximum growth rate until its surface area became
very small. Then its growth rate was limited by the growth of the (110), (101), and
