Abstract

Unified model equations hidden in microstructure evolution are discovered in this paper. The governing equations in Lifshitz–Slyozov–Wagner theory, and diffusion screening theory are derived with some approximations from the unified model equations. The governing equations in multiparticle diffusion simulation and phase-field simulation in microstructure evolution are also derived from the unified model equations. The advantages and limitations for different theories and simulations in microstructure evolution are compared in detail. This comparison can guide scientists to select computational tools for their needs in microstructure evolution. The unified model equations can be applied in many new technological fields, such as self-assembly in nanoscience.
