Controlling crystal symmetries in phase-field crystal models
Kuo-An Wu, Mathis Plapp, Peter W Voorhees
We investigate the possibility to control the symmetry of ordered states in phase-field crystal models by tuning nonlinear resonances. In two dimensions, we find that a state of sq…
Defects and multistability in eutectic solidification patterns
Andrea Parisi, Mathis Plapp
We use three-dimensional phase-field simulations to investigate the dynamics of the two-phase composite patterns formed upon during solidification of eutectic alloys. Besides the s…
Remarks on some open problems in phase-field modelling of solidification
Mathis Plapp
Three different topics in phase-field modelling of solidification are discussed, with particular emphasis on the limitations of the currently available modelling approaches. First,…
Diffuse-interface model for nanopatterning induced by self-sustained ion etch masking
S. Le Roy, E. Søndergård, M. Kildemo +2
We construct a simple phenomenological diffuse-interface model for composition-induced nanopatterning during ion sputtering of alloys. In simulations, this model reproduces without…
