Phase-Field Simulations at the Atomic Scale in Comparison to Molecular Dynamics

Early solidification is investigated using two different simulation techniques: the molecular dynamics (MD) and the phase-field (PF) methods. While the first describes the evolution of a system on the basis of motion equations of particles, the second grounds on the evolution of continuous local ord...
