Numerical Simulation of Three-Dimensional Dendritic Growth

Abstract

Dendritic crystal growth in a pure undercooled melt is simulated quantitatively in three dimensions using a phase-field approach. The full non-axisymmetric morphology of the steady-state dendrite tip and σ* are determined as a function of anisotropy for a crystal with a cubic symmetry. Results are compared to experiment and used to critically test solvability theory.
