This paper is concerned with the designing, analyzing and implementing linear and nonlinear discretization scheme for the distributed optimal control problem (OCP) with the Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation as constrained. We propose three difference schemes to approximate and investigate the solution behaviour of the OCP for the CH equation. We present the convergence analysis of the proposed discretization. We verify our findings by presenting numerical experiments.

In this paper, we propose, analyze and implement efficient time parallel methods for the Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation. It is of great importance to develop efficient numerical methods for the CH equation, given the range of applicability of the CH equation has. The CH equation generally needs to be simulated for a very long time to get the solution of phase coarsening stage. Therefore it is desirable to accelerate the computation using parallel method in time. We present linear and nonlinear Parareal methods for the CH equation depending on the choice of fine approximation. We illustrate our results by numerical experiments.

In this paper, we design, analyze and implement efficient time parallel method for a class of fourth order time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs), namely biharmonic heat equation, linearized Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation and the nonlinear CH equation. We use diagonalization technique on all-at-once system to develop efficient iterative time parallel methods for investigating the solution behaviour of said equations. We present the convergence analysis of Parallel-in-Time (PinT) algorithms. We verify our findings by presenting numerical results.

In this paper, we formulate and study substructuring type algorithm for the Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation, which was originally proposed to describe the phase separation phenomenon for binary melted alloy below the critical temperature and since then it has appeared in many fields ranging from tumour growth simulation, image processing, thin liquid films, population dynamics etc. Being a non-linear equation, it is important to develop robust numerical techniques to solve the CH equation. Here we present the formulation of Dirichlet-Neumann (DN) and Neumann-Neumann (NN) methods applied to CH equation and study their convergence behaviour. We consider the domain-decomposition based DN and NN methods in one and two space dimension for two subdomains and extend the study for multi-subdomain setting for NN method. We verify our findings with numerical results., Comment: 26 figures

In this paper, we analyze a substructuring type algorithm for the Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation.
