Unified Theoretical Framework for Polycrystalline Pattern Evolution

Ari Adland, Yechuan Xu, Alain Karma

The rate of curvature-driven grain growth in polycrystalline materials is well-known to be limited by interface dissipation. We show analytically and by simulations that, for syste…

Structural short-range forces between solid-melt interfaces

Robert Spatschek, Ari Adland, Alain Karma

We predict the structural interaction of crystalline solid-melt interfaces using amplitude equations which are derived from classical density functional theory or phase-field-cryst…

Phase-field-crystal study of grain boundary premelting and shearing in bcc iron

Ari Adland, Alain Karma, Robert Spatschek +2

We use the phase-field-crystal (PFC) method to investigate the equilibrium premelting and nonequilibrium shearing behaviors of symmetric tilt grain boundaries (GBs) at high…

Coupled motion of asymmetrical tilt grain boundaries: molecular dynamics and phase field crystal simulations

Z. T. Trautt, A. Adland, A. Karma +1

Previous simulation and experimental studies have shown that some grain boundaries (GBs) can couple to applied shear stresses and be moved by them, producing shear deformation of t…

Phase-field-crystal model for fcc ordering

Kuo-An Wu, Ari Adland, Alain Karma

We develop and analyze a two-mode phase-field-crystal model to describe fcc ordering. The model is formulated by coupling two different sets of crystal density waves corresponding…
