Phase-Field Simulations of Crystal Growth
نویسنده
چکیده
This course gives an elementary introduction to the phase-field method and to its applications for the modeling of crystal growth. Two different interpretations of the phase-field variable are given and discussed. It can be seen as a physical order parameter that characterizes a phase transition, or as a smoothed indicator function that tracks domain boundaries. Elementary phase-field models for solidification and epitaxial growth are presented and are applied to the dendritic growth of a pure substance and the step-flow growth on a vicinal surface.

متن کاملA fast, robust, and accurate operator splitting method for phase-field simulations of crystal growth
In this paper we propose a fast, robust, and accurate operator splitting method for phase-field simulations of dendritic growth in both twoand three-dimensional space. The proposed method is based on operator splitting techniques. We split the governing phase-field equation into three parts: the first equation is calculated by using an explicit Euler’s method. The second is a heat equation with...
