Note publique d'information : The book deals with modern methods of nonlinear stability theory applied to problems
of continuous media mechanics in the presence of interfaces, with applications to
materials science, chemical engineering, heat transfer technologies, as well as in
combustion and other reaction-diffusion systems. Interfaces play a dominant role at
small scales, and their correct modeling is therefore also crucial in the rapidly
expanding fields of microfluidics and nanotechnologies. To this aim, the book combines
contributions of eminent specialists in the field, with a special emphasis on rigorous
and predictive approaches. Other goals of this volume are to allow the reader to identify
key problems of high scientific value, and to see the similarity between a variety
of seemingly different physical problems.
