We investigate the impact of spatial-temporal discretisation schemes on the dynamics of a class of reaction-diffusion equations that includes the FitzHugh-Nagumo system. For the temporal discretisation we consider the family of six backward…
The Ohta-Kawasaki model for diblock copolymers exhibits a rich equilibrium bifurcation structure. Even on one-dimensional base domains the bifurcation set is characterized by high levels of multi-stability and numerous secondary bifurcation…
The Ohta-Kawasaki model for diblock-copolymers is well known to the scientific community of diffuse-interface methods. To accurately capture the long-time evolution of the moving interfaces, we present a derivation of the corresponding…
We present algorithms for solving spatially nonlocal diffusion models on the unit sphere with spectral accuracy in space. Our algorithms are based on the diagonalizability of nonlocal diffusion operators in the basis of spherical harmonics,…
We numerically investigate local defectiveness control of self-assembled diblock copolymer patterns through appropriate substrate design. We use a nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation for the phase separation dynamics of diblock copolymers.…
This paper focusses on finite volume schemes for solving multilayer diffusion problems. We develop a finite volume method that addresses a deficiency of recently proposed finite volume/difference methods, which consider only a limited…
We propose a fully discrete finite volume scheme for the standard Fokker-Planck equation. The space discretization relies on the well-known square-root approximation, which falls into the framework of two-point flux approximations. Our time…
We study a two-dimensional ternary inhibitory system derived as a sharp-interface limit of the Nakazawa-Ohta density functional theory of triblock copolymers. This free energy functional combines an interface energy favoring micro-domain…
A conforming finite element scheme with mixed explicit-implicit time discretization for quasi-incompressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell-Stefan systems in a bounded domain with periodic boundary conditions is presented. The system consists of the…
We propose a new preconditioner for the Ohta--Kawasaki equation, a nonlocal Cahn--Hilliard equation that describes the evolution of diblock copolymer melts. We devise a computable approximation to the inverse of the Schur complement of the…
We consider finite element discretizations of the Biot's consolidation model in poroelasticity with MINI and stabilized P1-P1 elements. We analyze the convergence of the fully discrete model based on spatial discretization with these types…
A novel numerical scheme including time and spatial discretization is offered for coupled Cahn-Hilliard and Navier-Stokes governing equation sys-tem in this paper. Variable densities and viscosities are considered in the nu-merical scheme.…
The numerical approximation of some Boussinesq systems in two spatial dimensions is here considered. The differential systems under study are proposed as asymptotic models for the propagation of waves along the interface of two layers of…
We present an improved and more accurate numerical scheme for a generalization of the Kuramoto model of coupled phase oscillators to the three-dimensional space. The present numerical scheme relies crucially on our observation that the…
We study a variational model for a diblock-copolymer/homopolymer blend. The energy functional is a sharp-interface limit of a generalisation of the Ohta-Kawasaki energy. In one dimension, on the real line and on the torus, we prove…
A colloidal particle placed in an inhomogeneous solution of smaller non-adsorbing polymers will move towards regions of lower polymer concentration, in order to reduce the free energy of the interface between the surface of the particle and…
We are concerned in designing a suitable numerical scheme based on the equal-order hybrid high-order (HHO) method for the linear parabolic integro-differential equations. The spatial discretization is made using the equal-order HHO method…
We prove the convergence of certain second-order numerical methods to weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations satisfying in addition the local energy inequality, and therefore suitable in the sense of Scheffer and…
A new mean-field type theory is proposed to study order-disorder transitions (ODT) in block copolymers. The theory applies to both the weak segregation (WS) and the strong segregation (SS) regimes. A new energy functional is proposed…
In this paper, we consider numerical approximations of a hydrodynamically coupled phase field diblock copolymer model, in which the free energy contains a kinetic potential, a gradient entropy, a Ginzburg-Landau double well potential, and a…
