Abstract
This volume deals with modelling and analysis of phase transitions in two-phase systems. It aims to offer an introduction to this subject, and also to present some research problems. The models that we construct represent a compromise between the description of physical phenomena and analytical requirements; accordingly our presentation is characterized by a strict interplay between physics and mathematics.
