Defects play a key role in deciding the mechanisms and kinetics of phase transformations. In this paper, we show how dislocations influence phase separation in alloys with miscibility gap. Specifically, depending on the ratio of pipe…
Failure and flow of amorphous materials are central to various phenomena including earthquakes and landslides. There is accumulating evidence that the yielding transition between a flowing and an arrested phase is a critical phenomenon, but…
As an example for the interplay of structure, dynamics, and phase behavior of macromolecular systems, this article focuses on the problem of bottle-brush polymers with either rigid or flexible backbones. On a polymer with chain length…
Microalloying elements tend to segregate to the matrix-precipitate phase boundaries to reduce the interfacial energy. The segregation mechanism is emerging as a novel design strategy for developing precipitation-hardened alloys with…
We investigate the neighborhood of Topological Lattice Field Theories (TLFTs) in the parameter space of general lattice field theories in dimension $D\geq 2$, and discuss the phase structures associated to them. We first define a…
The phase behavior of colloidal particles embedded in a binary fluid is influenced by wetting layers surrounding each particle. The free energy of the fluid film depends on its morphology, i.e., on size, shape and connectivity. Under rather…
In this work, we propose and test the validity of a modified Phase Field Method (PFM), which was specifically developed for large scale simulations of turbulent flows with large and deformable surfactant-laden droplets. The time evolution…
During phase transitions certain properties of a material change, such as composition field and lattice-symmetry distortions. These changes are typically coupled, and affect the microstructures that form in materials. Here, we propose a 2D…
Under rocket-relevant conditions, real-gas effects and thermodynamic non-idealities are prominent features of the flow field. Experimental investigations indicate that phase separation can occur depending on the operating conditions and on…
Complex morphologies and microstructures that emerge during materials growth and solidification are often determined by both equilibrium and kinetic properties of the interface and their crystalline anisotropies. However limited knowledge…
Confluent cell monolayers and epithelia tissues show remarkable patterns and correlations in structural arrangements and actively-driven collective flows. We simulate these properties using multiphase field models. The models are based on…
The phase-field method has become in recent years the method of choice for simulating microstructural pattern formation during solidification. One of its main advantages is that time-dependent three-dimensional simulations become feasible.…
The phase-field-crystal model is used to access the structure and thermodynamics of interfaces between two coexisting liquid crystalline phases in two spatial dimensions. Depending on the model parameters there is a variety of possible…
A thermodynamically consistent phase-field model is developed to study the non-isothermal grain coalescence during the sintering process, with a potential application to the simulation in unconventional sintering techniques, e.g. spark…
We investigate the behavior of colloidal suspensions with different volume fractions confined between parallel walls under a range of steady shears. We model the particles using molecular dynamics (MD) with full hydrodynamic interactions…
We develop a phase-field model for evaporation from a porous medium by explicitly considering a vapor component together with the liquid and gas phases in the system. The phase-field model consists of the conservation of mass (for phases…
The excellent mechanical properties of the Ni-based superalloy IN718 mainly result from coherent $\gamma''$ precipitates. Due to a strongly anisotropic lattice misfit between the matrix and the precipitate phase, the particles exhibit…
We study phase field equations based on the diffuse-interface approximation of general homogeneous free energy densities showing different local minima of possible equilibrium configurations in perforated/porous domains. The study of such…
We study the dynamics of the phase behavior of a polymer blend in the presence of shear flow. By adopting a two fluid picture and using a generalization of the concept of material derivative, we construct kinetic equations that describe the…
We present an overview of phase field modeling of active matter systems as a tool for capturing various aspects of complex and active interfaces. We first describe how interfaces between different phases are characterized in phase field…
