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 propose a weak solution theory for the sharp interface limit of the Cahn-Hilliard reaction model, a variational PDE for lithium-ion batteries. An essential feature of this model is the use of Butler-Volmer kinetics for lithium-ion…
A combination of experimental measurements and numerical simulations are used to characterize the mechanical and electrochemical response of thin film amorphous Si electrodes during cyclic lithiation. Parameters extracted from the…
In this work, the sharp interface limit of the degenerate Cahn-Hilliard equation (in two space dimensions) with a polynomial double well free energy and a quadratic mobility is derived via a matched asymptotic analysis involving…
The Cahn-Hilliard reaction model, a nonlinear, evolutionary PDE, was introduced to model phase separation in lithium-ion batteries. Using Butler-Volmer kinetics for electrochemical consistency, this model allows lithium-ions to enter the…
Lithium-ion batteries exhibit complex nonlinear dynamics, resulting from diffusion and phase transformations coupled to ion intercalation reactions. Using the recently developed Cahn-Hilliard reaction (CHR) theory, we investigate a simple…
To study the electrochemical reaction on surfaces, phase interfaces, and crack surfaces in the lithium ion battery electrode particles, a phase-field model is developed, which describes fracture in large strains and anisotropic…
Biomembranes and vesicles consisting of multiple phases can attain a multitude of shapes, undergoing complex shape transitions. We study a Cahn--Hilliard model on an evolving hypersurface coupled to Navier--Stokes equations on the surface…
We reformulate and extend porous electrode theory for non-ideal active materials, including those capable of phase transformations. Using principles of non-equilibrium thermodynamics, we relate the cell voltage, ionic fluxes, and Faradaic…
We formulate the continuum field equations and constitutive equations that govern deformation, stress, and electric current flow in a Li-ion half-cell. The model considers mass transport through the system, deformation and stress in the…
An appropriate description of the lithiation/delithiation dynamics in bi-phasic primary cathode particles of Li-ion batteries requires an accurate treatment of the conditions holding at the interface between the particle and the surrounding…
Metastable cubic tin(II) sulfide ($\pi$-SnS) is an earth-abundant semiconductor whose three-dimensionally bonded chiral lattice may overcome the short minority-carrier lifetime of orthorhombic SnS while maintaining a near-ideal bandgap for…
During the intercalation of lithium in layered host materials such as graphite, lithium atoms can move within the plane between two neighboring graphene sheets, but cannot cross the sheets. Repulsive interactions between atoms in different…
We propose in this paper a new multiphase Cahn-Hilliard model with doubly degenerate mobilities. We prove by a formal asymptotic analysis that it approximates with second order accuracy the multiphase surface diffusion flow with mobility…
We study the well-posedness of a modified degenerate Cahn-Hilliard type model for surface diffusion. With degenerate phase-dependent diffusion mobility and additional stabilizing function, this model is able to give the correct sharp…
In this letter, we derive the sharp-interface limit of the Cahn-Hilliard-Biot equations using formal matched asymptotic expansions. We find that in each sub-domain, the quasi-static Biot equations are obtained with domain-specific material…
Cahn-Hilliard models are central for describing the evolution of interfaces in phase separation processes and free boundary problems. In general, they have non-constant and often degenerate mobilities. However, in the latter case, the…
We find analytical solutions to the Cahn-Hilliard equation for the dynamics of an interface in a system with a conserved order parameter (Model B). We show that, although steady-state solutions of Model B are unphysical in the far-field,…
The Cahn--Hilliard equation is a widely used model that describes amongst others phase separation processes of binary mixtures or two-phase flows. In the recent years, different types of boundary conditions for the Cahn--Hilliard equation…
We construct gradient structures for free boundary problems with nonlinear elasticity and study the impact of moving contact lines. In this context, we numerically analyze how phase-field models converge to certain sharp-interface limits…
