Solution methods for the Cahn–Hilliard equation discretized by conforming and non-conforming finite elements
Petia Boyanova, Minh Do‐Quang, Maya G. Neytcheva · 2011
In this work we consider preconditioned iterative solution methods for numerical simulations of multiphase flow problems, modelled by the Cahn-Hilliard equation. We focus on the construction and efficiency of various preconditioning techniques and the effect of two discretization methods - conforming and non-conforming finite elements spaces - on those techniques.
