the Allen–Cahn equation. From 1984, he was an affiliate professor at the University of Washington. In 1957, Cahn worked with John E. Hilliard to develop...

dynamics of spinodal decomposition is commonly modeled using the Cahn–Hilliard equation. Spinodal decomposition is fundamentally different from nucleation...

phenomenon occurs during phase separation and is described by the Cahn–Hilliard equation. Reverse diffusion also refers to when water is forced from a region...
