Are you an EPFL student looking for a semester project?
Work with us on data science and visualisation projects, and deploy your project as an app on top of GraphSearch.
The goal of the project is to study an optimal control problem for the Cahn-Hilliard equation. To this end, we proceed in three steps: we first introduce the Cahn-Hilliard equation and how it is derived, and describe some of its applications; then, we approximate it with the finite element method and solve it with FreeFem++. Finally, we formulate the optimal control problem and solve it with FreeFem++.
