3-D viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation with memory

Metastable internal layer dynamics for the viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation

A formal asymptotic method is used to derive a differential-algebraic system of equations characterizing the metastable motion of a pattern of n (n ≥ 2) internal layers for the one-dimensional viscous Cahn-Hilliard modeling slow phase separation. Similar slow motion results are obtained for the Cahn-Hilliard equation and the constrained Allen-Cahn equation by introducing a homotopy parameter in...

The Viscous Cahn{hilliard Equation Part I: Computations 1

The viscous Cahn-Hilliard equation arises as a singular limit of the phase-eld model of phase transitions. It contains both the Cahn-Hilliard and Allen-Cahn equations as particular limits. The equation is in gradient form and possesses a compact global attractor A, comprising heteroclinic orbits between equilibria. Two classes of computation are described. First heteroclinic orbits on the globa...

The Cahn-hilliard Equation

1. Steady states. There are many two component systems in which phase separation can be induced by rapidly cooling the system. Thus, if a two component system, which is spatially uniform at temperature T1, is rapidly cooled to a second sufficiently lower temperature T2, then the cooled system will separate into regions of higher and lower concentration. A phenomenological description of the beh...
