      abstract     = {The investigation of phase transformations is of great
                      interest in various fields. For diffusional transitions,
                      accurate descriptions of the diffusion processes in the
                      parent, growing phases and at the interfaces are the
                      prerequisite to predict the complex growth patterns. In the
                      last decades, the phase field method has emerged as a
                      powerful tool to investigate the moving interface problems.
                      However, the elimination of the artificial enhanced
                      interface effects is a long-standing unsolved problem in the
                      phase field community. In the symmetric and the one-sided
                      cases, the “thin-interface limit” and the anti-trapping
                      current are proposed by Karma to reproduce the free boundary
                      conditions. Only recently, the nondiagonal phase field model
                      has been developed according to Onsager’s relations in the
                      two-sided case. In this work, we present the capabilities of
                      the nondiagonal phase field model and extend the binary
                      nondiagonal phase field model to complex alloys. A four-fold
                      surface energy anisotropy is incorporated in the binary
                      nondiagonal phase field model to investigate the
                      two-dimensional free dendrite growth of pure substances
                      solidification. In the symmetric and the one-sided cases,
                      the nondiagonal phase field simulation results are
                      benchmarked with Green’s function calculations. In the
                      general two-sided case, the capabilities of nondiagonal
                      phase field model are compared with the predictions of a
                      generalized expression. Furthermore, the necessity of the
                      Onsager cross-coupling term is also evidenced. Based on
                      Onsager’s principles, the binary nondiagonal phase field
                      model is ex- tended to three-phase transformations by using
                      the free energy functional. The two-dimensional nondiagonal
                      phase field simulations are carried out not only for
                      eutectic solidification in the one-sided case, but also for
                      eutectoid transformation in the two-sided case. One the one
                      hand, the obtained simulation results during eu- tectic
                      solidification are benchmarked against boundary integral
                      calculations in the one-sided case. On the other hand,
                      simulations performed in the two-sided case during eutectoid
                      transformations reveal that the dimensionless growth
                      velocities of the lamellae is proportional to the ratio of
                      diffusion coefficients. Furthermore, in both the one- and
                      two-sided cases, the necessity of using the cross-coupling
                      term in the nondiagonal phase field model is verified by
                      quantitative simulations. Since the free energy based
                      nondiagonal model is limited for simple symmetric phase
                      diagrams, we develop a grand potential based nondiagonal
                      three-phase field model for complex alloy transformations.
                      The corresponding two-dimensional phase field simulations
                      are implemented to investigate the growth kinetics of the
                      pearlite transformation with respect to different diffusion
                      paths. In the one-sided case, the simulation results are
                      compared with the Zener-Hillert model, while the simulation
                      results in the two-sided case are proportional to the
                      diffusivity ratios, which agrees well wit Ankit’s model.
                      Additionally, we also point out that diffusion in cementite
                      has low influence on the growth kinetic of the pearlite
                      transformation. When the surface diffusion is considered, in
                      the one-sided case, the growth velocities of the lamellae is
                      proportional to the surface diffusion coefficient. Finally,
                      we consider the diffusion in austenite, cementite as well as
                      the surface diffusion and reproduce the pearlite growth for
                      different undercoolings. The nondiagonal phase field
                      simulation results have a convincing agreement with the
                      experimental observations without adjustable parameters.},
