Domain growth and coarsening inhibition in a nonpotential system
We present a study of interface dynamics in two spatial dimensions for a nonrelaxational system that describes the temporal evolution of three competing real fields. This and similar models have been used to obtain insight into problems such as Rayleigh–Bénard convection in a rotating cell or population competition dynamics in predator-key systems. A notable feature is that the nonpotential dyn...
متن کاملDomain growth morphology in curvature-driven two-dimensional coarsening.
We study the distribution of domain areas, areas enclosed by domain boundaries ("hulls"), and perimeters for curvature-driven two-dimensional coarsening, employing a combination of exact analysis and numerical studies, for various initial conditions. We show that the number of hulls per unit area, n_{h}(A,t)dA , with enclosed area in the interval (A,A+dA) , is described, for a disordered initia...
متن کاملGrowth laws and self-similar growth regimes of coarsening two-dimensional foams: transition from dry to wet limits.
We study the topology and geometry of two-dimensional coarsening foam with an arbitrary liquid fraction. To interpolate between the dry limit described by von Neumann's law and the wet limit described by Marqusee's equation, the relevant bubble characteristics are the Plateau border radius and a new variable: the effective number of sides. We propose an equation for the individual bubble growth...
متن کاملConcurrent Growth and Coarsening of Spheres
A theory is developed of concurrent growth and coarsening of a dispersion of spheres that accounts for the exchange of heat by diffusion among the spheres due to their curvature differences and between the spheres and the environment due to an externally imposed heat extraction rate. The results show that in concurrent growth and coarsening the average particle radius asymptotically increases w...
متن کاملLaws of population growth.
An important issue in the study of cities is defining a metropolitan area, because different definitions affect conclusions regarding the statistical distribution of urban activity. A commonly employed method of defining a metropolitan area is the Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs), based on rules attempting to capture the notion of city as a functional economic region, and it is performed b...
