On long-wave morphological instabilities in directional solidification
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 September 2008
Abstract
A binary liquid that undergoes directional solidification is susceptible to morphological instabilities which cause the solid/liquid interface to change from a planar to a cellular state. This paper presents a numerical study of a class of long-wave equations that describe the evolution of interface morphology. We find new bifurcation points, new solution branches, and the existence of inverted hexagonal nodes and cells.
