Contents
This talk is devoted to the numerical analysis of a finite-volume scheme of the Cahn-Hilliard equation with dynamic boundary conditions. The finite-volume method is well adapted to the coupling of the dynamics in the domain and those on the boundary by a flux term. Furthermore, this scheme accounts naturally for the non-flat geometry of the boundary and for the associated Laplace-Beltrami operator. We prove existence and convergence results and we present various numerical simulations.
