Percolation-dependent Reaction Rates in the Etching of Disordered Solids
K. M. Kolwankar, M. Plapp, B. Sapoval
A prototype statistical model for the etching of a random solid is investigated in order to assess the influence of disorder and temperature on the dissolution kinetics. At low tem…
Stability of hexagonal solidification patterns
Mathis Plapp, Marcus Dejmek
We investigate the dynamics of cellular solidification patterns using three-dimensional phase-field simulations. The cells can organize into stable hexagonal patterns or exhibit un…
Phase-field Modeling of Eutectic Solidification: From Oscillations to Invasion
R. Folch, M. Plapp
We develop a phase-field model of eutectic growth that uses three phase fields, admits strictly binary interfaces as stable solutions, and has a smooth free energy functional. We u…
Pattern Stability and Trijunction Motion in Eutectic Solidification
S. Akamatsu, M. Plapp, G. Faivre +1
We demonstrate by both experiments and phase-field simulations that lamellar eutectic growth can be stable for a wide range of spacings below the point of minimum undercooling at l…
