Phase field models frequently provide insight to phase transitions, and are robust numerical tools to solve free boundary problems corresponding to the motion of interfaces. A body of prior literature suggests that interface motion via…
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…
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…
