Abstract: This continuum mechanical theory aims at detailing the underlying rational mechanics of dynamic boundary conditions proposed by Fischer, Maass, & Dieterich [1], Goldstein, Miranville, & Schimperna [2], and Knopf, Lam, Liu & Metzger, [3]. As a byproduct, we generalize these theories. These types of dynamic boundary conditions are described by the coupling between the bulk and surface partial differential equations for phase fields. Our point of departure within this continuum framework is the principle of virtual powers postulated on an arbitrary part where the boundary may lose smoothness. That is, the normal field may be discontinuous along an edge . However, the edges characterizing the discontinuity of the normal field are considered smooth. Our results may be summarized as follows. We provide a generalized version of the principle of virtual powers for the bulk-surface coupling along with a generalized version of the partwise free-energy imbalance. Next, we derive the explicit form of the surface and edge microtractions along with the field equations for the bulk and surface phase fields. The final set of field equations somewhat resembles the Cahn--Hilliard equation for both the bulk and surface. Lastly, we provide a suitable set of constitutive relations and thermodynamically consistent boundary conditions.
