In this paper, a discontinuous finite element method is presented for the fourth-order nonlinear Cahn-Hilliard equation that models multiphase flows together with the Navier-Stokes equations. A flux scheme suitable for the method is proposed and analyzed together with numerical results. The model is applied to simulate the droplet movement and numerical results are presented.

AbstractThe paper introduces a finite element method for the Navier-Stokes equations of incompressible viscous fluid in a time-dependent domain. The method is based on a quasi-Lagrangian formulation of the problem and handling the geometry in a time-explicit way. We prove that numerical solution satisfies a discrete analogue of the fundamental energy estimate. This stability estimate does not require a CFL time-step restriction. The method is further applied to simulation of a flow in a model of the left ventricle of a human heart, where the ventricle wall dynamics is reconstructed from a sequence of contrast enhanced Computed Tomography images.
