A Level-Set Method for the Evolution of Faceted Crystals

چکیده

A level-set formulation for the motion of faceted interfaces is presented. The evolving surface of a crystal is represented as the zero-level of a phase function. The crystal is identified by its orientation and facet speeds. Accuracy is tested on a single crystal by comparison with the exact evolution. The method is extended to study the evolution of a polycrystal. Numerical examples in two and three dimensions are presented.

Simulation of faceted film growth in three dimensions: microstructure, morphology and texture

We present the results of a series of simulations of the growth of polycrystalline, faceted films in three spatial dimensions. The simulations are based upon the assumptions of the well known van der Drift model in which the growth rate of each surface is fixed only by its crystallographic orientation. The simulation method is based upon the level-set formalism and the only input are the relati...

TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF PLANE STRUCTURES USING BINARY LEVEL SET METHOD AND ISOGEOMETRIC ANALYSIS

This paper presents the topology optimization of plane structures using a binary level set (BLS) approach and isogeometric analysis (IGA). In the standard level set method, the domain boundary is descripted as an isocountour of a scalar function of a higher dimensionality. The evolution of this boundary is governed by Hamilton–Jacobi equation. In the BLS method, the interfaces of subdomai...

A Method for Body Fat Composition Analysis in Abdominal Magnetic Resonance Images Via Self-Organizing Map Neural Network

Introduction: The present study aimed to suggest an unsupervised method for the segmentation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in axial magnetic resonance (MR) images of the abdomen. Materials and Methods: A self-organizing map (SOM) neural network was designed to segment the adipose tissue from other tissues in the MR images. The segmentation of SAT and VA...

Physically Derived Rules for Simulating Faceted Crystal Growth using Cellular Automata

We derive a set of algorithms for simulating the diffusion-limited growth of faceted crystals using local cellular automata. This technique has been shown to work well in reproducing realistic crystal morphologies, and the present work provides a more rigorous physical foundation that connects the numerical code to the physics of attachment kinetics and diffusion dynamics. We then apply these a...
