The Cahn-Hilliard Equation with Logarithmic Potentials

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss recent issues related with the Cahn-Hilliard equation in phase separation with the thermodynamically relevant logarithmic potentials; in particular, they are interested in the wellposedness and the study of the asymptotic behavior of the solutions (and more precisely the existence of finite-dimensional attractors).

Computationally efficient solution to the Cahn-Hilliard equation: Adaptive implicit time schemes, mesh sensitivity analysis and the 3D isoperimetric problem

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that significant computational gains can be obtained by applying embedded, higher order Runge-Kutta methods in a time adaptive setting, which allows accessing time-scales that vary by five orders of magnitude.

A practically unconditionally gradient stable scheme for the N-component Cahn-Hilliard system

TL;DR: The scheme is based on a nonlinear splitting method and is solved by an efficient and accurate nonlinear multigrid method and allows the N-component Cahn–Hilliard system to be converted into a system of N−1 binary Cahn-Hilliard equations and significantly reduces the required computer memory and CPU time.
