Nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of heterogeneous fluid systems /

Show other versions (1)

There is a wide variety of heterogeneous fluid systems that possess interphase surfaces. This monograph is devoted to pioneering studies in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of such systems. Starting from the Liouville equation, the equations of surface hydrodynamics are derived with allowance fo...
