Spectral approximation of the H-1 gradient flow of a multi-well potential with bending energy

We consider a fully discrete approximation of the H1 gradient flow of an energy integral where the energy density is given by the sum of a nonnegative multi-well potential term and a bending energy term. The spatial discretization is based on a Fourier spectral method, which is combined with an impl...
