  We study the evolution of domain wall networks appearing after phase
transitions in the early Universe. They exhibit interesting dynamical scaling
behaviour which is not yet well understood, and are also simple models for the
more phenomenologically acceptable string networks. We have run numerical
simulations in two- and three-dimensional lattices of sizes up to 4096^3. The
theoretically predicted scaling solution for the wall area density A ~ 1/t is
supported by the simulation results, while no evidence of a logarithmic
correction reported in previous studies could be found. The energy loss
mechanism appears to be direct radiation, rather than the formation and
collapse of closed loops or spheres. We discuss the implications for the
evolution of string networks.
