The kinetics of domain growth of fluid mixtures quenched from a disordered to a lamellar phase has been studied in three dimensions. We use a numerical approach based on the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). A novel implementation for LBM which "fuses" the collision and streaming steps is used in order to reduce memory and bandwidth requirements. We find that extended defects between stacks of lamellae with different orientation dominate the late time dynamics.

Abstract
The kinetics of domain growth of fluid mixtures quenched from a disordered to a lamellar phase has been studied in three dimensions. We use a numerical approach based on the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). A novel implementation for LBM which "fuses" the collision and streaming steps is used in order to reduce memory and bandwidth requirements. We find that extended defects between stacks of lamellae with different orientation dominate the late time dynamics.File in questo prodotto:
