Extended Larché--Cahn framework for reactive Cahn--Hilliard multicomponent systems
Santiago P. Clavijo, Luis Espath, Victor M. Calo
At high temperature and pressure, solid diffusion and chemical reactions between rock minerals lead to phase transformations. Chemical transport during uphill diffusion causes phas…
