Phase-field models provide a regularized
version of Stefan
|
problems
for computational purposes
|
|
|
| • |
Phase-field models are able to
incorporate both bulk and
|
|
surface
thermodynamics
|
|
|

Can be generalised to:
|
|
|
|
• |
include material deformation (fluid flow
& elasticity)
|
|
|
|
• |
models of complex alloys
