Phase-field Modelling of Anisotropic Solid-State Dewetting on Patterned Substrates
Emma Radice, Marco Salvalaglio, Roberto Bergamaschini
We present a phase-field model for simulating the solid-state dewetting of anisotropic crystalline films on non-planar substrates. This model exploits two order parameters to trace…
Why Grain Growth is Not Curvature Flow
Caihao Qiu, David J. Srolovitz, Gregory S. Rohrer +2
Grain growth in polycrystals is traditionally considered a capillarity-driven process, where grain boundaries (GBs) migrate toward their centers of curvature (i.e., mean curvature…
Inferring traits of hyperuniformity from local structures via persistent homology
Abel H. G. Milor, Marco Salvalaglio
Hyperuniformity refers to the suppression of density fluctuations at large scales. Typical for ordered systems, this property also emerges in several disordered physical and biolog…
A Non-Isothermal Phase-Field Crystal Model with Lattice Expansion: Analysis and Benchmarks
Maik Punke, Marco Salvalaglio, Axel Voigt +1
We introduce a non-isothermal phase-field crystal model including heat flux and thermal expansion of the crystal lattice. The thermal compatibility condition, as well as a positive…
Hybrid-PFC: coupling the phase-field crystal model and its amplitude-equation formulation
Maik Punke, Marco Salvalaglio
The phase-field crystal (PFC) model describes crystal structures at diffusive timescales through a periodic, microscopic density field. It has been proposed to model elasticity in…
Mesoscale Field Theory for Quasicrystals
Marcello De Donno, Luiza Angheluta, Ken R. Elder +1
We present a mesoscale field theory unifying the modeling of growth, elasticity, and dislocations in quasicrystals. The theory is based on the amplitudes entering their density-wav…
Persistent homology and topological statistics of hyperuniform point clouds
Marco Salvalaglio, Dominic J. Skinner, Jörn Dunkel +1
Hyperuniformity, the suppression of density fluctuations at large length scales, is observed across a wide variety of domains, from cosmology to condensed matter and biological sys…
