Electromigration
The Electromigration subnode is used to add an additional flux contribution (Γem, i) that is proportional to the gradient of an electric field. The flux from electromigration is evaluated as follows
where zi are the charge number of each species, F is Faraday constant, and V is the electric potential. The flux is evaluated in the reference or deformed configuration depending on the choice for Frame in the Solid node.
Electromigration
The Electric Potential can be either a User defined expression or it can be selected from another physics interface.
Specify the Charge number for each species, and then enter a value or expression in the corresponding field.
See also Electromigration in the Structural Mechanics Theory chapter.
