Description
In this talk I will present new results about the Active Cahn-Hilliard equation, which is a variant of the Cahn-Hilliard equation not derivable from variational principles which describes active materials constituted by particles that can convert energy into directed motion. This model has multiple applications in biomedicine and engineering. I will show quantitative results about the phase-separation and coarsening dynamics, and both analytical and numerical results for the model equation.
