We consider the relationship between the temperature at which averaged energy landscape properties change sharply ($T_{o}$), and the breakdown of mean-field treatments of the dynamics of supercooled liquids. First, we show that the solution…
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…
Fluid phase equilibrium depends on the external constraints imposed on a system. In a closed system with fixed volume, depending on the average density, a vapor bubble may be stable, metastable, or unstable, with respect to the homogeneous…
The phase-field method is used as a basis to develop a strictly mass conserving, yet simple, model for simulation of two-phase flow. The model is aimed to be applied for the study of structure evolution in metallic foams. In this regard,…
A diffuse-interface model for microstructure with an arbitrary number of components and phases was developed from basic thermodynamic and kinetic principles and formalized within a variational framework. The model includes a composition…
In this paper we present a balanced phase field model for active surfaces. This work is devoted to the generalization of the Balanced Phase Field Model for Active Contours devised to eliminate the often undesirable curvature-dependent…
We investigate the dynamics of a first order transition when the order parameter field undergoes resonant oscillations, driven by a periodically varying parameter of the free energy. This parameter could be a background oscillating field as…
We investigate the multi-order parameter phase field model of Steinbach and Pezzolla [I. Steinbach, F. Pezzolla, A generalized field method for multiphase transformations using interface fields, Physica D 134 (1999) 385-393] concerning its…
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…
Nonequilibrium conditions fundamentally change how systems undergo phase separation. In systems with temperature gradients, attractive particles have been shown to form periodic patterns and steady convective currents, but a clear…
We present a new phase-field model for binary fluids exhibiting typical signatures of self-glassiness, such as long-time relaxation, ageing and long-term dynamical arrest. The present model allows the cost of building an interface to become…
We compare time-dependent solutions of different phase-field models for dendritic solidification in two dimensions, including a thermodynamically consistent model and several ad hoc models. The results are identical when the phase-field…
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…
In this paper we propose a simple mean-field "toy" model for the liquid-glass phase transition. This is the system of $N$ point-like particles confined in a finite volume of a $D$-dimensional space interacting via infinite-range oscillating…
The search for effective methods to fabricate bulk single-phase quasicrystalline Al-Cu-Fe alloys is currently an important task. Crucial to solving this problem is to understand mechanisms of phase formation in this system. Here we study…
Our study of a basic model for incompressible two-phase flows with phase transitions consistent with thermodynamics in the case of constant but non-equal densities of the phases, begun by the first two authors is continued. We extend our…
The preferential formation of one solid over the other, as it precipitates out from the melt at specific temperatures, is often explained by invoking a competition between thermodynamic and kinetic control. A quantitative theory, however,…
We study a solution of interacting semiflexible polymers with curvature energy in poor-solvent conditions on the d-dimensional cubic lattice using mean-field theory and Monte Carlo computer simulations. Building upon past studies on a…
As phase-field modeling (PFM) is booming across various disciplines and has been proven fitted for numerically modeling interfacial problems, we aim at taking a step back to revisit its fundamental validity, in the light of non-equilibrium…
In the present paper we consider a partial differential system describing a phase-field model with temperature dependent constraint for the order parameter. The system consists of an energy balance equation with a fairly general nonlinear…
