Phase-field modeling of biomineralization in mollusks and corals: Microstructure vs. formation mechanism
László Gránásy, László Rátkai, Gyula I. Tóth +3
While biological crystallization processes have been studied on the microscale extensively, models addressing the mesoscale aspects of such phenomena are rare. In this work, we inv…
Phase-field modeling of crystal nucleation in undercooled liquids -- A review
László Gránásy, Gyula I. Tóth, James A. Warren +4
We review how phase-field models contributed to the understanding of various aspects of crystal nucleation including homogeneous and heterogeneous processes, and their role in micr…
Crystallization: Colloidal suspense
László Gránásy, Gyula I. Tóth
According to classical nucleation theory, a crystal grows from a small nucleus that already bears the symmetry of its end phase - but experiments with colloids now reveal that, fro…
Free energy of the bcc-liquid interface and the Wulff shape as predicted by the Phase-Field Crystal model
Frigyes Podmaniczky, Gyula I. Tóth, Tamás Pusztai +1
The Euler-Lagrange equation of the phase-field crystal (PFC) model has been solved under appropriate boundary conditions to obtain the equilibrium free energy of the body centered…
Phase-Field Modeling of Solidification in Light-Metal Matrix Nanocomposites
Tamás Pusztai, László Rátkai, Attila Szállás +1
The quantitative phase-field approach has been adapted to model solidification in the presence of Metal Matrix Nanocomposites (MMNCs) in a single-component liquid. Nanoparticles of…
Phase-field crystal modelling of crystal nucleation, heteroepitaxy and patterning
László Gránásy, György Tegze, Gyula I. Tóth +1
We apply a simple dynamical density functional theory, the phase-field-crystal (PFC) model, to describe homogeneous and heterogeneous crystal nucleation in 2d monodisperse colloida…
