Linear, first and second-order, unconditionally energy stable numerical schemes for the phase field model of homopolymer blends

TL;DR: First and second order temporal approximation schemes based on the “Invariant Energy Quadratization” method are developed, where all nonlinear terms are treated semi-explicitly, leading to a symmetric positive definite linear system to be solved at each time step.

Numerical Approximations for a three components Cahn-Hilliard phase-field Model based on the Invariant Energy Quadratization method

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of first-and second-order temporal approximation schemes based on a novel "Invariant Energy Quadratization" approach is presented. But the scheme is not energy stable.

Numerical approximations for a phase field dendritic crystal growth model based on the invariant energy quadratization approach

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a semi-discrete scheme for phase field dendritic crystal growth, which is derived from the variation of a free energy functional, consisting of a temperature dependent bulk potential and a conformational entropy with a gradient-dependent anisotropic coefficient.

Hydrodynamic fluctuations at the convective instability

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of thermal fluctuations on the convective instability were considered, and it was shown that the Langevin equations for hydrodynamic fluctuations are equivalent, near the instability, to a model for the crystallization of a fluid in equilibrium.

Regular Article: Calculation of Two-Phase Navier–Stokes Flows Using Phase-Field Modeling

TL;DR: In this article, the Navier-Stokes equations are modified by the addition of the continuum forcing [emailprotected]?->@f, where C is the composition variable and @f is C's chemical potential.

Quasi–incompressible Cahn–Hilliard fluids and topological transitions

TL;DR: In this article, a physically motivated regularization of the Euler equations is proposed to allow topological transitions to occur smoothly, where the sharp interface is replaced by a narrow transition layer across which the fluids may mix.

A diffuse-interface method for simulating two-phase flows of complex fluids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a diffuse-interface approach to simulating the flow of two-phase systems of microstructured complex fluids, where the energy law of the system guarantees the existence of a solution.
