In this paper we propose a “Discrete Duality Finite Volume” method (DDFV for short) for the diffuse interface modelling of incompressible two-phase flows. This numerical method is, conservative, robust and is able to handle general geometries and meshes. The model we study couples the Cahn−Hilliard equation and the unsteady Stokes equation and is endowed with particular nonlinear boundary conditions called dynamic boundary conditions. To implement the scheme for this model we have to derive new discrete consistent DDFV operators that allows an energy stable coupling between both discrete equations. We are thus able to obtain the existence of a family of solutions satisfying a suitable energy inequality, even in the case where a first order time-splitting method between the two subsystems is used. We illustrate various properties of such a model with some numerical results.

We study the longtime behavior of the Caginalp phase-field model with a logarithmic potential and dynamic boundary conditions for both the order parameter and the temperature. Due to the possible lack of distributional solutions, we deal with a suitable definition of solutions based on variational inequalities, for which we prove well-posedness and the existence of global and exponential attractors with finite fractal dimension.
