The ubiquity of semilinear parabolic equations has been illustrated in their numerous applications ranging from physics, biology, to materials and social sciences. In this paper, we consider a practically desirable property for a class of…
In this paper, we propose two efficient fully-discrete schemes for Q-tensor flow of liquid crystals by using the first- and second-order stabilized exponential scalar auxiliary variable (sESAV) approach in time and the finite difference…
This paper proposes a decoupled numerical scheme of the time-dependent Ginzburg--Landau equations under the temporal gauge. For the magnetic potential and the order parameter, the discrete scheme adopts the second type Ned${\rm…
We propose finite-volume schemes for the Cahn-Hilliard equation which unconditionally and discretely preserve the boundedness of the phase field and the dissipation of the free energy. Our numerical framework is applicable to a variety of…
We study the static properties of cubic blue phases by numerically minimising the three-dimensional, Landau-de Gennes free energy for a cholesteric liquid crystal close to the isotropic-cholesteric phase transition. Thus we are able to…
The energy dissipation law and the maximum bound principle are two critical physical properties of the Allen--Cahn equations. While many existing time-stepping methods are known to preserve the energy dissipation law, most apply to a…
The numerical integration of phase-field equations is a delicate task which needs to recover at the discrete level intrinsic properties of the solution such as energy dissipation and maximum principle. Although the theory of energy…
In this work, we propose a Crank-Nicolson-type scheme with variable steps for the time fractional Allen-Cahn equation. The proposed scheme is shown to be unconditionally stable (in a variational energy sense), and is maximum bound…
This work delves into the exponential time differencing (ETD) schemes for the matrix-valued Allen-Cahn equation. In fact, the maximum bound principle (MBP) for the first- and second-order ETD schemes is presented in a prior publication…
In this work, we present three linear numerical schemes to model nematic liquid crystals using the Landau-de Gennes $\textbf{Q}$-tensor theory. The first scheme is based on using a truncation procedure of the energy, which allows for an…
This paper deals with time stepping schemes for the Cahn--Hilliard equation with three different types of dynamic boundary conditions. The proposed schemes of first and second order are mass-conservative and energy-dissipative and -- as…
In this paper, we consider numerical approximations for the viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation with hyperbolic relaxation. This type of equations processes energy-dissipative structure. The main challenge in solving such a diffusive system…
We present numerical solutions to the extended Doering-Constantin variational principle for upper bounds on the energy dissipation rate in turbulent plane Couette flow. Using the compound matrix technique in order to reformulate this…
We numerically study the dynamics of two-dimensional blue phases in active chiral liquid crystals. We show that introducing contractile activity results in stabilised blue phases, while small extensile activity generates ordered but dynamic…
Phase field models are gradient flows with their energy naturally dissipating in time. In order to preserve this property, many numerical schemes have been well-studied. In this paper we consider a well-known method, namely the exponential…
New theoretical approaches have been developed for studying and quantitatively describing the elastic properties of cubic blue phases in cholesteric liquid crystals. Within the framework of the Landau-de Gennes theory, using the simplest…
The convective Allen-Cahn equation has been widely used to simulate multi-phase flows in many phase-field models. As a generalized form of the classic Allen-Cahn equation, the convective Allen-Cahn equation still preserves the maximum bound…
For the time-fractional phase field models, the corresponding energy dissipation law has not been settled on both the continuous level and the discrete level. In this work, we shall address this open issue. More precisely, we prove for the…
Employing a phase space which includes the (Riemann-Liouville) fractional derivative of curves evolving on real space, we develop a restricted variational principle for Lagrangian systems yielding the so-called restricted fractional…
The energy dissipation law and the maximum bound principle (MBP) are two important physical features of the well-known Allen-Cahn equation. While some commonly-used first-order time stepping schemes have turned out to preserve…
