Morphological Stability of a Cylinder

Sam R Coriell et al. J Res Natl Bur Stand A Phys Chem. 1969 Jan-Feb.

Abstract

The stability of the shape of a solid cylinder crystallizing in a supercooled liquid is treated. The effects of solute diffusion, slightly anisotropic surface tension and interface kinetics are included. The resulting stability equations are applied to the specific case of ice cylinders.

Keywords: Cylinder; ice; interface kinetics; morphological stability; solute diffusion; surface tension.
