We consider a mass conserved Allen-Cahn equation $u_t=\Delta u+ \e^{-2} (f(u)-\e\lambda(t))$ in a bounded domain with no flux boundary condition, where $\e\lambda(t)$ is the average of $f(u(\cdot,t))$ and $-f$ is the derivative of a double…

We consider a phase field model for the flow of two partly miscible incompressible, viscous fluids of Non-Newtonian (power law) type. In the model it is assumed that the densities of the fluids are equal. We prove existence of weak…
