KKSMultiACBulkF
KKS model kernel (part 1 of 2) for the Bulk Allen-Cahn. This includes all terms NOT dependent on chemical potential.
Residual
For the 3-phase KKS model, if the non-linear variable is ,
where is the phase concentration for phase and is the interpolation function for phase defined in Folch and Plapp (2005) (referred to as there, but we use to maintain consistency with other interpolation functions in MOOSE). Here , also for consistency with notation in MOOSE. is the free energy barrier height.
Jacobian
On-diagonal
If the non-linear variable is , the on-diagonal Jacobian is
Off-diagonal
Off-diagonal Jacobian for (similar for ):
Off-diagonal Jacobian for (similar for ):
These statements can be generalized for non-linear variable as:
For the off-diagonal Jacobians we also need to multiply by , the Allen-Cahn mobility.
