In this paper, the second order accurate (in time) energy stable numerical schemes are presented for the Fractional Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation. Combining the stabilized technique, we apply the implicit Crank-Nicolson formula (CN) to derive second order temporal accuracy, and we use the Fourier spectral method for space discrete to obtain the fully discretization schemes. It is shown that the schemes are unconditionally energy stable. A few numerical experiments are presented to conclude the article.

In this paper, a second-order accurate (in time) energy stable Fourier spectral scheme for the fractional-in-space Cahn-Hilliard (CH) equation is considered. The time is discretized by the implicit backward differentiation formula (BDF), along with a linear stabilized term which represents a second-order Douglas-Dupont-type regularization. The semidiscrete schemes are shown to be energy stable and to be mass conservative. Then we further use Fourier-spectral methods to discretize the space. Some numerical examples are included to testify the effectiveness of our proposed method. In addition, it shows that the fractional order controls the thickness and the lifetime of the interface, which is typically diffusive in integer order case.

Large-time coarsening and the associated scaling and statistically self-similar properties are used to construct infinite tilings. This is realized using a Cahn–Hilliard equation and special boundaries on each tile. Within a compromise between computational effort and the goal to reduce recurrences, an infinite tiling has been created and software which zooms in and out evolve forward and backward in time as well as traverse the infinite tiling horizontally and vertically. We also analyze the scaling behavior and the statistically self-similar properties and describe the numerical approach, which is based on finite elements and an energy-stable time discretization.
