The phase field (PF) method is used to simulate a wide range of problems in mechanics, ranging from crack propagation to topology optimization. As a diffuse interface method, PF requires AMR to be computationally feasible, but few PF methods leverage block-structured AMR. Alamo is an AMReX-based code designed to solve phase field equations with implicit elastic solves. It features a variety of phase field methods, material models, and a strong-form nonlinear elastic solver based on AMReX's MLMG. In this talk, we give a high-level overview of some of the applications of Alamo, including deflagration of solid rocket propellant, topology optimization of mechanical structures, phase field fracture, microstructure evolution, and solid-fluid interaction.
