A unified structure-preserving parametric finite element method for anisotropic surface diffusion

From MaRDI portal





The paper at hand deals derives parametrized finite element methods for general anisotropic surface diffusion of curves in 2d and surfaces in 3d that uses implicit-explicit Euler time stepping. The schemes are provably structure preserving in the sense that the total enclosed volume is conserved and the total surface energy is non-increasing in time. This is achieved by defining a novel surface energy matrix and deriving a unified and conservative variational formulation for anisotropic surface diffusion.
