Abstract: | We experimentally address long-time dynamics of an artificially curved growth interface in directional solidification. Repetitive cell nucleations are found to appear in a disordered way, but to eventually organize themselves in a coherent way, for long times. This behavior is recovered by simulation of a nonlinear advection-diffusion model for phase dynamics. The existence of a periodic attractor is supported by the derivation of a Lyapunov functional for this model. |
