Micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS) thermal flow sensors are increasingly used for compact, low-power flow monitoring in biomedical applications. However, silicon-based method for sensor fabrication is limited by high cost, rigidity,…
Predicting microstructure evolution during thermomechanical treatment is essential for determining the final mechanical properties of a material, yet conventional simulations based on Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) remain…
Grain growth has a definitive impact on the quality of transparent sintered materials in areas such as ballistics, biomaterials, jewelry, etc. Controlling the sintering trajectory at the precise moment of final stage sintering is one of the…
The phase-field method has become a useful tool for the simulation of classical metallurgical phase transformations as well as other phenomena related to materials science. The thermodynamic consistency that forms the basis of these…
Phase-field modeling is an elegant and versatile computation tool to predict microstructure evolution in materials in the mesoscale regime. However, these simulations require rigorous numerical solutions of differential equations, which are…
Forced granular matter in confined geometries presents phase transitions and coexistence. Depending on the system and forcing parameters, liquid-vapor and liquid-solid co-existing states are possible. For the solid-liquid coexistence that…
The General Thermodynamic Theory of Sintering, formulated by the author in 1998 is given. This theory is applied to the problem of swelling of materials under conditions of radiation. Driving forces, caused by the presence of the evolution…
The effectiveness of machine learning in metallographic microstructure segmentation is often constrained by the lack of human-annotated phase masks, particularly for rare or compositionally complex morphologies within the metal alloy. We…
Conventional phase-field models often drive solid-solid interfaces to coalesce when in close proximity. This feature limits their use for processes like diffusion bonding, where the interfaces might need to remain distinct under certain…
This study proposes a new full-field approach for modeling grain boundary pinning by second phase particles in two-dimensional polycrystals. These particles are of great importance during thermomechanical treatments, as they produce…
A new phase field crystal (PFC) type theory is presented, which accounts for the full spectrum of solid-liquid-vapor phase transitions within the framework of a single density order parameter. Its equilibrium properties show the most…
Tungsten (W) is the leading candidate material for plasma-facing components in fusion reactors, yet its upper operational temperature is limited by premature grain growth and recrystallization processes. Irradiation adds further…
Fragile materials ranging from sand to fire-retardant to toothpaste are able to exhibit both solid and fluid-like properties across the jamming transition. Unlike ordinary fusion, systems of grains, foams and colloids jam and cease to flow…
A general formulation is presented to derive the equation of motion and to demonstrate thermodynamic consistency for several classes of phase field models at once. It applies to models with a conserved phase field, describing either uniform…
Grain growth in polycrystals is one of the principal mechanisms that take place during heat treatment of metallic components. This work treats an aspect of the anisotropic grain growth problem. By applying the first principles of…
A new flash (ultra-rapid) spark plasma sintering method applicable to various materials systems, regardless of their electrical resistivity, is developed. A number of powders ranging from metals to electrically insulative ceramics have been…
We characterize both analytically and numerically short-range forces between spatially diffuse interfaces in multi-phase-field models of polycrystalline materials. During late-stage solidification, crystal-melt interfaces may attract or…
In this work, we present a variational and quantitative phase-field model for non-isothermal sintering processes. The model is derived via an extended non-diagonal phase-field model. The model evolution equations have naturally…
Particle-stabilised emulsions are a cornerstone of soft matter science due to their broad application and fundamental relevance. Computer simulations provide key insights into the formation and behaviour of these emulsions, yet current…
We propose an energy-stable parametric finite element method (ES-PFEM) for simulating solid-state dewetting of thin films in two dimensions via a sharp-interface model, which is governed by surface diffusion and contact line (point)…
