Particles on curved surfaces - a dynamic approach by a phase field crystal model
Rainer Backofen, Axel Voigt, Thomas Witkowski
We present a dynamic model to study ordering of particles on arbitrary curved surfaces. Thereby the particles are represented as maxima in a density field and a surface partial dif…

Derivation of the phase field crystal model for colloidal solidification
Sven van Teeffelen, Rainer Backofen, Axel Voigt +1
The phase-field crystal model is by now widely used in order to predict crystal nucleation and growth. For colloidal solidification with completely overdamped individual particle m…
