Phase-field model was employed to quantitatively study the effect of convection on pattern selection and growth rate of 2D and 3D dendrite tip, as well as the effect of the different convection velocity on the dendritic growth. The calculated results show that crystal is asymmetric in the priority direction of growth under flow. The dentritic growth is promoted in the upstream region and suppre...

As animals grow, many early born structures grow by cell expansion rather than cell addition; thus growth of distinct structures must be coordinated to maintain proportionality. This phenomenon is particularly widespread in the nervous system, with dendrite arbors of many neurons expanding in concert with their substrate to sustain connectivity and maintain receptive field coverage as animals g...

In the present work, the solidification process was simulated in both macroscopic and microscopic scales. Two-dimensional heat transfer equation for conduction was applied for macroscopic modeling using enthalpy formulation and finite element method. In order to decrease execution time and/or memory capacity in finite analysis, skyline mathematical technique was adapted. The microenthalpy metho...

Dendrite formation occurs on Li, Na, and Mg metal anodes in rechargeable batteries, is a safety challenge, as well limiting factor for increasing energy- power density. However, the behaviour of dendrites differs depending anode material. In this study, we investigate local bulk surface crystal structure surfaces to shed light how differences morphology its deposits can explain dendrite anodes....

Abstract—In this paper, the cable model of dendrites have been considered. The dendrites are cylindrical cables of various segments having variable length and reducing radius from start point at synapse and end points. For a particular event signal being received by a neuron in response only some dendrite are active at a particular instance. Initial current signals with different current flows ...

The amplitude of backpropagating action potentials (BAPs) is attenuated, either activity- or neurotransmitter-dependently in the apical dendrite of hippocampal pyramidal neurons. To test the possibility that this BAP attenuation may contribute to regulating the inducibility of long-term potentiation (LTP), BAPs evoked by theta-burst stimulation (TBS), a standard protocol for LTP induction, to a...

Using an efficient hybrid Cellular Automata/Phase Field (CA-PF) dendrite growth model in combination with a solid-state phase transformation model, microstructure evolution and were predicted during laser direct deposition (LDD) of H13 tool steel powder within large domain across multiple tracks layers. Temperature surface geometry data provided by comprehensive physics-based model. The computa...
