This comprehensive and self-contained, one-stop source discusses phase-field
methodology in a fundamental way, explaining advanced numerical techniques for solving …

Dealing with all aspects of Monte Carlo simulation of complex physical systems encountered
in condensed matter physics and statistical mechanics, this book provides an introduction to …

The theory of phase-ordering dynamics, that is the growth of order through domain
coarsening when a system is quenched from the homogeneous phase into a broken …

Phase-field models provide a way to model fluid interfaces as having finite thickness. This
can allow the computation of interface movement and deformation on fixed grids. This paper …

Hysteresis is an exciting and mathematically challenging phenomenon that oc curs in rather
different situations: jt, can be a byproduct offundamental physical mechanisms (such as …

Phase transition dynamics is centrally important to condensed matter physics. This 2002
book treats a wide variety of topics systematically by constructing time-dependent Ginzburg …
