Examples are the peeling of a strip of adhesive tape, the coating of a surface, the curling of a fiber via capillary forces, or the collapse of a porous sponge. These interfacial phenomena are distinct from the intrinsic behavior of a soft material like a gel or a microemulsion. Yet many forms of interfacial phenomena can be understood via common principles valid for many forms of soft matter. Our goal in organizing this school was to give students a grasp of these common principles and their many ramifications and possibilities. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Les Houches Summer School comprised over fifty 90-minute lectures over four weeks. Four four-lecture courses by Howard Stone, Michael Cates, David Nelson and L. Mahadevan served as an anchor for the program. A number of shorter courses and seminars rounded out the school. This volume collects the lecture notes of the school.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lyderic Bocquet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198789351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198789352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 578\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.80w x 1.40d","brand":"Lyderic Bocquet","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47001087574271,"sku":"9780198789352","price":82.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_65e6db6f-79b4-486c-b737-dc020f5fbfc5.jpg?v=1751600028","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/soft-interfaces-lyderic-bocquet-9780198789352","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
