Numerical computations of the dynamics of fluidic membranes and vesicles
John W. Barrett, Harald Garcke, Robert Nürnberg
Vesicles and many biological membranes are made of two monolayers of lipid molecules and form closed lipid bilayers. The dynamical behaviour of vesicles is very complex and a varie…
Phase Field Models versus Parametric Front Tracking Methods: Are they accurate and computationally efficient?
John W. Barrett, Harald Garcke, Robert Nürnberg
We critically compare the practicality and accuracy of numerical approximations of phase field models and sharp interface models of solidification. Particular emphasis is put on St…
Finite-Element Approximation of One-Sided Stefan Problems with Anisotropic, Approximately Crystalline, Gibbs--Thomson Law
John W. Barrett, Harald Garcke, Robert Nürnberg
We present a finite-element approximation for the one-sided Stefan problem and the one-sided Mullins--Sekerka problem, respectively. The problems feature a fully anisotropic Gibbs-…
