Dynamical Simulations of Hexagonal-Orthorhombic Ferroelastics

In this simulation we observe the phase transition beginning from a nucleus of the low-temperature phase. This image evolves according to A1=500 and A1'=1 (see below)

Here is a is a more complicated simulation, using A1=500 and A1'=1

A comparison of the growth of the low temperature phase for three different values of the stiffness parameter (A1=10,100,1000). The area of these three simulations is twice as large as all the others on this page.

A comparison of the evolution of domains in the low temperature phase for three different values of the stiffness parameter (A1=10,100,1000).

Another simulation for slightly different starting conditions, using A1=1000, A1'=0
