We attempt here to set forth a mesoscopic formalism to meet both these challenges. SEM micrograph showing complex pore structure with quartz grains and chlorite platelets. Our formulation is self-consistent. Thus, we solve for the disturbances in the Landau continuum induced by the immersed mesostructure and this disturbance, in turn, influences the configuration of the mesostructure. However, it appears that such simulation codes cannot be applied to the very large systems of interest here.
Similar remarks apply to the multi-phase flow phenomena.
To make our biostructure computations feasible, considering the large number of atoms involved, we use two techniques. A preliminary result using this explicit atomic approach is seen in Fig. As for the medium, which is treated as a continuum, its structure is found by minimizing the free energy with respect to its concentration. Nonlocal Landau-type gradient terms are included to account for the effect of interfaces. A preliminary result is shown in Fig. 5 .
