We present and analyze a new second-order finite difference scheme for the Macromolecular Microsphere Composite hydrogel, Time-Dependent Ginzburg-Landau (MMC-TDGL) equation, a Cahn-Hilliard equation with Flory-Huggins-deGennes energy potential. This numerical scheme with unconditional energy stability is based on the Backward Differentiation Formula (BDF) method time derivation combining with Douglas-Dupont regularization term. In addition, we present a point-wise bound of the numerical solution for the proposed scheme in the theoretical level. For the convergent analysis, we treat three nonlinear logarithmic terms as a whole and deal with all logarithmic terms directly by using the property that the nonlinear error inner product is always non-negative. Moreover, we present the detailed convergent analysis in $ell^infty (0,T; H_h^{-1}) cap ell^2 (0,T; H_h^1)$ norm. At last, we use the local Newton approximation and multigrid method to solve the nonlinear numerical scheme, and various numerical results are presented, including the numerical convergence test, positivity-preserving property test, spinodal decomposition, energy dissipation and mass conservation properties.

In this paper, we construct and analyze a uniquely solvable, positivity preserving and unconditionally energy stable finite-difference scheme for the periodic three-component Macromolecular Microsphere Composite (MMC) hydrogels system, a ternary Cahn -Hilliard system with a Flory-Huggins-deGennes free energy potential. The proposed scheme is based on a convex-concave decomposition of the given energy functional with two variables, and the centered difference method is adopted in space. We provide a theoretical justification that this numerical scheme has a pair of unique solutions, such that the positivity is always preserved for all the singular terms, i.e., not only two phase variables are always between $0$ and $1$, but also the sum of two phase variables is between $0$ and $1$, at a point-wise level. In addition, we use the local Newton approximation and multigrid method to solve this nonlinear numerical scheme, and various numerical results are presented, including the numerical convergence test, positivity-preserving property test, energy dissipation and mass conservation properties.
We present a second-order-in-time finite difference scheme for the Cahn-Hilliard-Hele-Shaw equations. This numerical method is uniquely solvable and unconditionally energy stable. At each time step, this scheme leads to a system of nonlinear equation s that can be efficiently solved by a nonlinear multigrid solver. Owing to the energy stability, we derive an $ell^2 (0,T; H_h^3)$ stability of the numerical scheme. To overcome the difficulty associated with the convection term $ abla cdot (phi boldsymbol{u})$, we perform an $ell^infty (0,T; H_h^1)$ error estimate instead of the classical $ell^infty (0,T; ell^2)$ one to obtain the optimal rate convergence analysis. In addition, various numerical simulations are carried out, which demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed numerical scheme.

We propose a novel second order in time numerical scheme for Cahn-Hilliard-Navier- Stokes phase field model with matched density. The scheme is based on second order convex-splitting for the Cahn-Hilliard equation and pressure-projection for the Navi er-Stokes equation. We show that the scheme is mass-conservative, satisfies a modified energy law and is therefore unconditionally stable. Moreover, we prove that the scheme is uncondition- ally uniquely solvable at each time step by exploring the monotonicity associated with the scheme. Thanks to the weak coupling of the scheme, we design an efficient Picard iteration procedure to further decouple the computation of Cahn-Hilliard equation and Navier-Stokes equation. We implement the scheme by the mixed finite element method. Ample numerical experiments are performed to validate the accuracy and efficiency of the numerical scheme.
In this paper we propose and analyze an energy stable numerical scheme for the Cahn-Hilliard equation, with second order accuracy in time and the fourth order finite difference approximation in space. In particular, the truncation error for the long stencil fourth order finite difference approximation, over a uniform numerical grid with a periodic boundary condition, is analyzed, via the help of discrete Fourier analysis instead of the the standard Taylor expansion. This in turn results in a reduced regularity requirement for the test function. In the temporal approximation, we apply a second order BDF stencil, combined with a second order extrapolation formula applied to the concave diffusion term, as well as a second order artificial Douglas-Dupont regularization term, for the sake of energy stability. As a result, the unique solvability, energy stability are established for the proposed numerical scheme, and an optimal rate convergence analysis is derived in the $ell^infty (0,T; ell^2) cap ell^2 (0,T; H_h^2)$ norm. A few numerical experiments are presented, which confirm the robustness and accuracy of the proposed scheme.
We analyze a fully discrete finite element numerical scheme for the Cahn-Hilliard-Stokes-Darcy system that models two-phase flows in coupled free flow and porous media. To avoid a well-known difficulty associated with the coupling between the Cahn-Hi lliard equation and the fluid motion, we make use of the operator-splitting in the numerical scheme, so that these two solvers are decoupled, which in turn would greatly improve the computational efficiency. The unique solvability and the energy stability have been proved in~cite{CHW2017}. In this work, we carry out a detailed convergence analysis and error estimate for the fully discrete finite element scheme, so that the optimal rate convergence order is established in the energy norm, i.e.,, in the $ell^infty (0, T; H^1) cap ell^2 (0, T; H^2)$ norm for the phase variables, as well as in the $ell^infty (0, T; H^1) cap ell^2 (0, T; H^2)$ norm for the velocity variable. Such an energy norm error estimate leads to a cancellation of a nonlinear error term associated with the convection part, which turns out to be a key step to pass through the analysis. In addition, a discrete $ell^2 (0;T; H^3)$ bound of the numerical solution for the phase variables plays an important role in the error estimate, which is accomplished via a discrete version of Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality in the finite element setting.
