    Anisotropy in wavelet based phase field models
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2014) Korzec, Maciek; Münch, Andreas; Süli, Endre; Wagner, Barbara
    Anisotropy is an essential feature of phase-field models, in particular when describing the evolution of microstructures in solids. The symmetries of the crystalline phases are reflected in the interfacial energy by introducing corresponding directional dependencies in the gradient energy coefficients, which multiply the highest order derivative in the phase-field model. This paper instead considers an alternative approach, where the anisotropic gradient energy terms are replaced by a wavelet analogue that is intrinsically anisotropic and linear. In our studies we focus on the classical coupled temperature
