Phase-Field Methods in Materials Science and Engineering

This comprehensive and self-contained, one-stop source discusses phase-field methodology in a fundamental way, explaining complex mathematical and numerical techniques for solving phase-field and related continuum-field models. It also presents techniques used to model various phenomena in a detailed, step-by-step way, such that readers can carry out their own code developments. Features many examples of how the methods explained can be used in materials science and engineering applications.
