Phase-field approach to polycrystalline solidification including heterogeneous and homogeneous nucleation

Tamás Pusztai, György Tegze, Gyula I. Tóth +4

Advanced phase-field techniques have been applied to address various aspects of polycrystalline solidification including different modes of crystal nucleation. The height of the nu…

Phase Field Theory of Nucleation and Polycrystalline Pattern Formation

L. Granasy, T. Pusztai, T. Borzsonyi

We review our recent modeling of crystal nucleation and polycrystalline growth using a phase field theory. First, we consider the applicability of phase field theory for describing…

Phase Field Theory of Heterogeneous Crystal Nucleation

László Gránásy, Tamás Pusztai, David Saylor +1

A phase eld approach is developed to model wetting and heterogeneous crystal nucleation of an undercooled pure liquid in contact with a sharp wall. We discuss various choices for t…

Phase field theory of polycrystalline solidification in three dimensions

T. Pusztai, G. Bortel, L. Granasy

A phase field theory of polycrystalline solidification is presented that is able to describe the nucleation and growth of anisotropic particles with different crystallographic orie…

On the growth and form of spherulites

László Gránásy, Tamás Pusztai, György Tegze +2

Many structural materials (metal alloys, polymers, minerals, etc.) are formed by quenching liquids into crystalline solids. This highly non-equilibrium process often leads to polyc…

Phase field theory of crystal nucleation in hard sphere liquid

Laszlo Granasy, Tamas Pusztai, Zoltan Jurek +2

The phase field theory of crystal nucleation described in [L. Granasy, T. Borzsonyi, T. Pusztai, Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 206105 (2002)] is applied for nucleation in hard--sphere liqui…
