Analytical solutions to the boundary integral equation: A case of angled dendrites and paraboloids
The boundary integral equation is solved analytically in the case of two‐ and three‐dimensional growth of angled dendrites and arbitrary parabolic/paraboloidal solid/liquid interfaces. The undercooling of a binary melt and the solute concentration at the phase transition boundary are found. The theory under consideration has a potential impact in describing more complex growth shapes and interfaces
Selection Criterion of Stable Dendritic Growth for a Ternary (Multicomponent) Melt with a Forced Convective Flow
A stable growth mode of a single dendritic crystal solidifying in an undercooled ternary (multicomponent) melt is studied with allowance for a forced convective flow. The steady-state temperature, solute concentrations and fluid velocity components are found for two- and three-dimensional problems. The stability criterion and the total undercooling balance are derived accounting for surface tension anisotropy at the solid-melt interface. The theory under consideration is compared with experimental data and phase-field modeling for Ni 98 Zr 1 Al 1 alloy
Anomalous Stochastic Transport of Particles with Self-Reinforcement and Mittag–Leffler Distributed Rest Times
From MDPI via Jisc Publications RouterHistory: accepted 2021-11-10, pub-electronic 2021-11-15Publication status: PublishedFunder: EPSRC; Grant(s): EP/V008641/1We introduce a persistent random walk model for the stochastic transport of particles involving self-reinforcement and a rest state with Mittag–Leffler distributed residence times. The model involves a system of hyperbolic partial differential equations with a non-local switching term described by the Riemann–Liouville derivative. From Monte Carlo simulations, we found that this model generates superdiffusion at intermediate times but reverts to subdiffusion in the long time asymptotic limit. To confirm this result, we derived the equation for the second moment and find that it is subdiffusive in the long time limit. Analyses of two simpler models are also included, which demonstrate the dominance of the Mittag–Leffler rest state leading to subdiffusion. The observation that transient superdiffusion occurs in an eventually subdiffusive system is a useful feature for applications in stochastic biological transport

SU(2)-invariant reduction of the 3+1 dimensional Ashtekar's gravity
We consider a space-time with spatial sections isomorphic to the group
manifold of SU(2). Triad and connection fluctuations are assumed to be
SU(2)-invariant. Thus, they form a finite dimensional phase space. We perform
non-perturbative path integral quantization of the model. Contarary to previous
claims the path integral measure appeared to be non-singular near
configurations admitting additional Killing vectors. In this model we are able
to calculate the generating functional of Green functions of the reduced phase
space variables exactly.Comment: 12 page
Theoretical modeling of crystalline symmetry order with dendritic morphology
The stable growth of a crystal with dendritic morphology with n-fold symmetry is modeled. Using the linear stability analysis and solvability theory, a selection criterion for thermally and solutally controlled growth of the dendrite is derived. A complete set of nonlinear equations consisting of the selection criterion and an undercooling balance (which determines the implicit dependencies of the dendrite tip velocity and tip diameter on the total undercooling) is formulated. The growth kinetics of crystals having different lattice symmetry is analyzed. The model predictions are compared with phase field modelling data on ice dendrites grown from pure undercooled water
