Abstract:
This article compares the operator splitting scheme to linearly stabilized splitting and semi-implicit Euler's schemes for the numerical solution of the Cahn-Hilliard equation. For the purpose of validation, the spinodal decomposition phenomena have been simulated. The efficacy of the three schemes has been demonstrated through numerical experiments. The computed results show that the schemes are conditionally stable. It has been observed that the operator splitting scheme is computationally more efficient.
