Abstract:Insights on the mechanical behavior in materials highly depend upon sufficiently characterizing microstructure details at the relevant length scales. In this study, the side-branching dynamics of dendritic structures formation in pure substances is studied upon the phase-field simulations of crystallization with applied direct currents. The effect of heat diffusion (including thermoelectric effect and undercooling) on the dendritic development is investigated, and the characteristics of the primary arms and si… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
