Abstract.

I shall introduce an energetic variational phase field model for the
mixture of two incompressible fluids which leads to a set of coupled
nonlinear system consisting a phase equation and the Navier-Stokes
equations. I shall present an efficient and accurate numerical schemes
for solving this coupled nonlinear system, and show ample numerical
results which not only demonstrate the effectiveness of our numerical
schemes, but also validate the flexibility and robustness of our
phase-field model.
