The description of surface-diffusion controlled dynamics via the phase-field method is less trivial than it appears at first sight. A seemingly straightforward approach from the literature is shown to fail to produce the correct…
Dewetting of a binary alloy thin film is studied using a continuum many-parameter model that accounts for the surface and bulk diffusion, the bulk phase separation, the surface segregation and the particles formation. Analytical solution is…
During the directional solidification of peritectic alloys, two stable solid phases (parent and peritectic) grow competitively into a metastable liquid phase of larger impurity content than either solid phase. When the parent or both solid…
We present a new phase-field model of solidification which allows efficient computations in the regime when interface kinetic effects dominate over capillary effects. The asymptotic analysis required to relate the parameters in the…
A model for diffusion-controlled spherical particle growth is presented and solved numerically, showing how, on cooling at sufficient rate from a given fraction solid, growth velocity first increases, and then decreases rapidly when solute…
A multi-phase-field model for the description of the discontinuous precipitation reaction is formulated which takes into account surface diffusion along grain boundaries and interfaces as well as volume diffusion. Simulations reveal that…
Even though our theoretical understanding of dendritic solidification is relatively well developed, our current ability to model this process quantitatively remains extremely limited. This is due to the fact that the morphological…
The existing theoretical analyses of solidification dynamics lack the insights of historical relevance and transport processes in the whole system. Through the phase-field model, this paper investigates the evolution in the whole domain…
In alloy solidification, the transport processes of heat and solute result in morphological instability of the interface, forming different patterns of solidification structure and determining the mechanical properties of components. As the…
Solute trapping is an important phenomenon in rapid solidification of alloys, for which the continuous growth model (CGM) is a popular sharp interface theory. Using matched asymptotic analysis, we show how to quantitatively map the sharp…
We study the evolution of prior columnar $\beta$ phase, interface $L$ phase, and $\alpha$ phase during directional solidification of a Ti-6Al-4V melt pool. Finite element simulations estimate the solidification temperature and velocity…
Numerous experimental data on the rapid solidification of binary systems exhibit the formation of metastable solid phases with the initial (nominal) chemical composition. This fact is explained by complete solute trapping leading to…
The kinetics of interfaces in alloy solidification pose a classic free boundary problem. This paper introduces an approach that amalgamates the distinctive characteristics of sharp and diffuse interface models. The motion of the diffuse…
We present a two-phase field model and a hybrid particle-phase field model to simulate dilute colloidal sedimentation and flotation near a liquid-gas interface (or fluid-fluid interface in general). Both models are coupled to the…
The dynamics of solid-liquid interfaces controlled by solute precipitation and/or dissolution due to the chemical reaction at the interface were computed in two dimensions using a phase field models. Sharp-interface asymptotic analysis…
We review how phase-field models contributed to the understanding of various aspects of crystal nucleation including homogeneous and heterogeneous processes, and their role in microstructure evolution. We recall results obtained both by the…
In this work, a phase-field model is developed for the dendritic growth with gas bubbles in the solidification of binary alloys. In this model, a total free energy for the complex gas-liquid-dendrite system is proposed through considering…
The phase-field method is reviewed from the general perspective of converting a free boundary problem into a set of coupled partial differential equations. Its main advantage is that it avoids front tracking by using phase fields to locate…
Understanding the microstuctural evolution during the sintering process is of high relevance as it is a key part in many industrial manufacturing processes. Simulations are one avenue to achieve this understanding, especially field-resolved…
Computer simulations of the phenomenon of contact melting in binary alloys with chemical miscibility gap are performed on the basis of the phase field theory. Kinetics of the process is examined within the isothermal approximation, as a…
