On linear schemes for a Cahn-Hilliard diffuse interface model

TL;DR: First and second order in time linear schemes based on different ways to approximate the double-well potential term are presented, detailing their advantages over other linear schemes that have been previously introduced in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Second order schemes and time-step adaptivity for Allen–Cahn and Cahn–Hilliard models

TL;DR: This paper proposes new ways of deriving second-order in time approximations of the potential term of the Allen–Cahn and Cahn–Hilliard equations and proposes a new adaptive time-stepping algorithm based on the numerical dissipation introduced in the discrete energy law in each time step.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerical Methods for Solving the Cahn–Hilliard Equation and Its Applicability to Related Energy-Based Models

TL;DR: In this article, a review of numerical methods to approximate the Cahn-Hilliard equation is presented, and the main properties that are desirable to control are the time accuracy order, energy-stability, unique solvability and linearity or nonlinearity of the resulting systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Type IV pili interactions promote intercellular association and moderate swarming of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

TL;DR: This work discerns a passive intercellular role of TFP during flagellar-mediated swarming of P. aeruginosa that does not require TFP extension or retraction and shows in vitro that TFP help alter collective motion to avoid toxic compounds such as the antibiotic carbenicillin.

Type IV pili interactions promote intercellular association and moderate swarming of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of laboratory experiments and computational simulations was used to explain the resultant patterns of cells imaged from in vitro swarms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa that does not require TFP extension or retraction.
