Global Well-Posedness of a Nonlinear Fokker-Planck Type Model of Grain Growth

Batuhan Bayir, Yekaterina Epshteyn, William M Feldman

Most technologically useful materials spanning multiple length scales are polycrystalline. Polycrystalline microstructures are composed of a myriad of small crystals or grains with…

Long-time asymptotic behavior of nonlinear Fokker-Planck type equations with periodic boundary conditions

Yekaterina Epshteyn, Chun Liu, Masashi Mizuno

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of a class of nonlinear Fokker-Planck type equations in a bounded domain with periodic boundary conditions. The system is motivated…

Relative Grain Boundary Energies from Triple Junction Geometry: Limitations to Assuming the Herring Condition in Nanocrystalline Thin Films

Matthew J. Patrick, Gregory S. Rohrer, Ooraphan Chirayutthanasak +5

Grain boundary character distributions (GBCD) are routinely measured from bulk microcrystalline samples by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and serial sectioning can be used…

A stochastic model of grain boundary dynamics: A Fokker-Planck perspective

Yekaterina Epshteyn, Chun Liu, Masashi Mizuno

Many technologically useful materials are polycrystals composed of small monocrystalline grains that are separated by grain boundaries of crystallites with different lattice orient…
