Polymer crystallization may be modelled by a stochastic birth-and-growth process, with temperature dependent parameters. The temperature field is itself stochastic, because of the release of latent heat, due to the phase change. A mathematical model which couples the evolution of crystal growth with the temperature field is here described. The final result is a stochastic system of PDE's, which has been numerically simulated. Results of numerical simulations for a test case are reported and discussed. [References: 17]
