    Hi,

    I am currently trying to add a gravity force to my program. I am using the free energy model with 3 lattices and I am now trying to include gravity in the system, however, I have not had any success with this. If anyone can provide some suggestions it would be much appreciated.

    Kind Regards,

    Callum

    Hi,

    I have shifted to trying to make this model work using 2 lattices. The issue with implementing gravity is still something I have not had any success with so any help would be much appreciated.

    Kind Regards,

    Callum

    For Multi-Phase models external forces such as gravity are usually defined via the descriptors::EXTERNAL_FORCE field. You can check out e.g. the Rayleigh Taylor example case.
