Sheared Foam as a Supercooled Liquid?

Author(s)
Stephen A. Langer, A J. Liu
We conduct numerical simulations on a simple model of a two-dimensional steady-state sheared foam, and define a quantity Γ that measures pressure fluctuations

James A. Warren, R Kobayashi, W Carter
We propose a two dimensional phase field model or grain boundary dynamics. One dimensional analytical solutions for a stable grain boundary in a bicrystal are

On the Properties of Alpha/Alpha + Beta Diffusion Couples

Author(s)
William J. Boettinger, Sam R. Coriell, Carelyn E. Campbell, Geoffrey B. McFadden
The properties of diffusion couples in a ternary system are examined theoretically when one end member is composed of single-phase material (alpha) and the
