There are several physico-chemical processes that determine the
behavior of multiphase fluid systems – e.g., the fluid dynamics
in the different phases and the dynamics of the interface(s),
mass transport between the fluids, adsorption effects at the
interface, and transport of surfactants on the interface – and
result in heterogeneous interface properties. In general, these
processes are strongly coupled and local properties of the
interface play a crucial role. A thorough understanding of the
behavior of such complex flow problems must be based on
physically sound mathematical models, which especially account
for the local processes at the interface.

This book presents recent findings on the rigorous derivation and
mathematical analysis of such models and on the development of
numerical methods for direct numerical simulations. Validation
results are based on specifically designed experiments using
high-resolution experimental techniques. A special feature of
this book is its focus on an interdisciplinary research approach
combining Applied Analysis, Numerical Mathematics, Interface
Physics and Chemistry, as well as relevant research areas in the
Engineering Sciences. The contributions originated from the joint
interdisciplinary research projects in the DFG Priority Programme
SPP 1506 “Transport Processes at Fluidic Interfaces.”
