The properties of the interface between solid and melt are key to solidification and melting, as the interfacial free energy introduces a kinetic barrier to phase transitions. This makes solidification happen below the melting temperature,…
(1) Introduction: New technologies that leverage gas hydrates phenomena include carbon capture and sequestrations. These processes are often semi-continuous and require regulation of the system's flow properties for proper operation.…
The interfacial free energy between a crystal and a fluid, {\gamma} cf, is a highly relevant parameter in phenomena such as wetting or crystal nucleation and growth. Due to the difficulty of measuring {\gamma} cf experimentally, computer…
