Mathematical theory of diffusion in solids: solutions in the semi-infinite body and solution to a diffusion problem with a variable boundary condition

Materials Science 2023-02-09 v3

Abstract

A review of solutions of solid-state diffusion problems in infinite and semi-infinite bodies is presented. Based on the identified solutions for the semi-infinite body a two-step diffusion problem is discussed in detail with the first step characterized by a Dirichlet constant concentration condition and the second step by a Neumann condition.
