Abstract
Phase field models have been employed extensively in the study of microstructure evolution in materials. Elasticity plays an important role in solid‐state phase transformation processes, and it is usually introduced into phase field models in terms of the elastic strain energy by applying Khachaturyan–Shatalov microelasticity theory. Conventionally, this energy is derived in the reciprocal space and results in full‐space Fourier transformation in practice, which becomes bottle‐neck in large‐scale and massively‐parallel applications. In this article, we propose an error‐controlled approximation algorithm for scalable and efficient calculation of the elastic strain energy in phase field models. We first derive a real‐space convolutional representation of the elastic strain energy by representing the equilibrium displacements in the Khachaturyan–Shatalov microelasticity theory using Green's function. Then we propose an error‐controlled truncation criterion to approximate the corresponding terms in the phase field model. Finally, a carefully designed parallel algorithm is presented to carry out large‐scale simulations. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated by real‐world large‐scale phase field simulations.
期刊介绍:
An international journal that aims to cover research into the development and analysis of new methods for the numerical solution of partial differential equations, it is intended that it be readily readable by and directed to a broad spectrum of researchers into numerical methods for partial differential equations throughout science and engineering. The numerical methods and techniques themselves are emphasized rather than the specific applications. The Journal seeks to be interdisciplinary, while retaining the common thread of applied numerical analysis.
