We investigate the mass-preserving $L^2$-gradient flow associated with a generalized Cahn--Hilliard equation. Our focus is on the sharp interface regime, where the interface width parameter $\varepsilon > 0$ is small. For well-prepared…
We study a non-local version of the Cahn-Hilliard dynamics for phase separation in a two-component incompressible and immiscible mixture with linear mobilities. In difference to the celebrated local model with nonlinear mobility, it is only…
The formal sharp-interface asymptotics in a degenerate Cahn-Hilliard model for viscoelastic phase separation with cross-diffusive coupling to a bulk stress variable are shown to lead to non-local lower-order counterparts of the classical…
In this paper we obtain rigidity results for a bounded non-constant entire solution $u$ of the Allen-Cahn equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$, whose level set $\{u=0\}$ is contained in a half-space. If $n\leq 3$ we prove that the solution must be…
Over the last decades, many diffuse-interface Navier-Stokes Cahn-Hilliard models with non-matching densities have appeared in the literature. These models claim to describe the same physical phenomena, yet they are distinct from one…
The main objectives of this article are two-fold. First, we study the effect of the nonlinear Onsager mobility on the phase transition and on the well-posedness of the Cahn-Hilliard equation modeling a binary system. It is shown in…
We consider complex dynamical systems showing metastable behavior but no local separation of fast and slow time scales. The article raises the question of whether such systems exhibit a low-dimensional manifold supporting its effective…
A fundamental understanding of the evaporation/condensation phenomena is vital to many fields of science and engineering, yet there is much discrepancy in the usage of phase change models and associated coefficients. First, a brief review…
Extensive studies have investigated the transition mechanism of boundary layers initiated by a single primary instability. In a real-world scenario, however, multiple primary instabilities of different physical nature would coexist and…
In traditional hydrodynamic theories for ionic fluids, conservation of the mass and linear momentum is not properly taken care of. In this paper, we develop hydrodynamic theories for a viscous, ionic fluid of $N$ ionic species enforcing…
We investigate a model of high-dimensional dynamical variables with all-to-all interactions that are random and non-reciprocal. We characterize its phase diagram and show that the model can exhibit chaotic dynamics. We show that the…
Employing a two-species Cahn-Hilliard model with nonreciprocal interactions we show that the interplay of nonreciprocity and conservation laws results in the robust coexistence of uniform stationary and oscillatory phases as well as of…
We investigate the Cahn-Hilliard equation with nonlinear diffusion and non-degenerate mobility modeling phase separation phenomena in complex systems (e.g., crystals and polymers). Previous results in the literature on this model relied on…
Comparing with the classical local gradient flow and phase field models, the nonlocal models such as nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equations equipped with nonlocal diffusion operator can describe more practical phenomena for modeling phase…
We analyze the dynamical equations obeyed by a classical system with position-dependent mass. It is shown that there is a non-conservative force quadratic in the velocity associated to the variable mass. We construct the Lagrangian and the…
We derive a novel thermodynamically consistent Navier--Stokes--Cahn--Hilliard system with dynamic boundary conditions. This model describes the motion of viscous incompressible binary fluids with different densities. In contrast to previous…
We study the numerical solution of a Cahn-Hilliard/Allen-Cahn system with strong coupling through state and gradient dependent non-diagonal mobility matrices. A fully discrete approximation scheme in space and time is proposed which…
We study the long-time dynamics of a bulk-surface convective Cahn--Hilliard system describing phase separation processes with bulk-surface interaction. The presence of convection terms leads to a non-autonomous dynamical system and prevents…
Nonlinear contact dynamics are widely regarded as intrinsically nonlinear systems whose behaviour depends strongly on geometry and impact conditions. Here we show that any one-dimensional conservative contact system satisfying monotone…
