15. The random parking problem considered here can be viewed as a one-dimensional example of a more general class of problems known as the irreversible random sequential absorption (RSA). For a thorough review of RSA models that include both 1D lattice models and various non-1D models, see, e.g., J. W. Evans, Rev. Mod. Phys. 65, 1281 (1993); more recent results are reviewed in. 10.1103/RevModPhys.65.1281
16. Similar models also arise in polymer chemical reactions. Thus, González [J. J. González, P. C. Hemmer, and J. S. Høye, Chem. Phys. 3, 228 (1974)] have used an analogous model to study the kinetics of random sequential reactions (e.g., oxidation) for an infinite 1D polymer system when a reacted unit protects a certain number of its neighbors against the reaction. 10.1016/0301-0104(74)80063-7
