Most research into microstructure formation during solidification has focused on single crystal growth forms, ranging from faceted crystals to dendritic growth patterns. However, these growth forms can be peturbed by heterogeneities yielding a rich variety

Vector-Valued Phase Field Model for Crystallization and Grain Boundary Formation

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
R Kobayashi, James A. Warren, W Carter
We propose a new model for calculation of the crystallization and impingement of many particles with differing orientations. Based on earlier phase field models, a vector order parameter is introduced, and thus orientation of crystal/disordered interfaces
