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.

A novel linear second order unconditionally energy stable scheme for a hydrodynamic Q -tensor model of liquid crystals

TL;DR: A novel, linear, second order semi-discrete scheme in time to solve the governing system of equations in the hydrodynamic Q -tensor model, developed following the novel ‘ energy quadratization ’ strategy so that it is linear and unconditionally energy stable at the semi- Discrete level.

Linear and unconditionally energy stable schemes for the binary fluid–surfactant phase field model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the numerical solution of a binary fluid-surfactant phase field model, in which the free energy contains a nonlinear coupling entropy, a Ginzburg-Landau double well potential, and a logarithmic Flory-Huggins potential.

A phase field model for rate-independent crack propagation: Robust algorithmic implementation based on operator splits

TL;DR: In this paper, a variational framework for rate-independent diffusive fracture was proposed based on the introduction of a local history field, which contains a maximum reference energy obtained in the deformation history, which may be considered as a measure for the maximum tensile strain obtained in history.

Step Motion on Crystal Surfaces. II

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that coalescence of steps or stabilization of step spacings can occur as a consequence of assuming that capture probabilities are directionally dependent, and a general solution for the time-dependent step distribution is obtained in terms of these probabilities and an arbitrary initial distribution of an infinite sequence of parallel steps.
