{"product_id":"9780198536949","title":"Thermomechanics of Evolving Phase Boundaries in the Plane","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is one of the few books on the subject of mathematical materials science. It discusses the dynamics of two-phase systems within the framework of modern continuum thermodynamics, stressing fundamentals. Two general theories are discussed: a mechanical theory that leads to a generalization of the classical curve-shortening equation and a theory of heat conduction that broadly generalizes the classical Stefan theory. This original survey includes simple solutions that demonstrate the instabilities inherent in two-phase problems. The free-boundary problems that form the basis of the subject should be of great interest to mathematicians and physical scientists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47016548761840,"sku":"9780198536949","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780198536949_p0.jpg?v=1763667545","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780198536949","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
