Constitutive modeling of two phase materials using the Mean Field method for homogenization [PDF]
, 2010 A Mean-Field homogenization framework for constitutive modeling of materials involving two distinct elastic-plastic phases is presented. With this approach it is possible to compute the macroscopic mechanical behavior of this type of materials based on ...

Phase-field simulation of magnetic double-hole nanoring and its application in random storage
International Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2021 As an ideal high-density storage unit, magnetic nanorings have become a research hotspot in recent years. We can both study the evolution of microscopic state of magnetization and acquire macroscopic magnetic properties by micromagnetic simulation, which

Analysis of Spinodal Decomposition in Al-Zn and Al-Zn-Cu Alloys Using the Nonlinear Cahn-Hilliard Equation [PDF]
Materials Research, 2017 The phase field model based on the nonlinear Cahn-Hilliard equation was applied to analyze the spinodal decomposition process in Al-Zn and Al-Zn-Cu alloys. Partial differential equations were solved using the explicit finite difference method for the Al-

Combining phase field crystal methods with a Cahn-Hilliard model for binary alloys [PDF]
, 2017 During phase transitions certain properties of a material change, such as composition field and lattice-symmetry distortions. These changes are typically coupled, and affect the microstructures that form in materials.

Phase field methods and dislocations [PDF]
Acta Materialia, 2003 Abstract We present a general formalism for incorporating dislocations in Phase Field methods (PFM) based on the elastic equivalence between a dislocation loop and a platelet inclusion of specific stress-free strain. Dislocations may be elastically and dynamically coupled to any other field such as a concentration field.

Solving the inverse Ising problem by mean-field methods in a clustered phase space with many states [PDF]
, 2016 In this work we explain how to properly use mean-field methods to solve the inverse Ising problem when the phase space is clustered, that is many states are present. The clustering of the phase space can occur for many reasons, e.g.

Phase Field Modeling of Anisotropic Tension Failure of Rock-Like Materials
Frontiers in Physics, 2021 The tensile fracture is a widespread feature in rock excavation engineering, such as spalling around an opened tunnel. The phase field method (PFD) is a non-local theory to effectively simulate the quasi-brittle fracture of materials, especially for the ...
