Macroscopic theories like thermodynamics and hydrodynamics treat phase interface as
mathematical two-dimensional objects, but in reality, they have finite t
hickness and
structures. Although the scale is nanoscopic in general, they are relevant in many macroscopic
phenomena, especially in nonlinear nonequilibrium phenomena. In this talk, recent analysis
on interfaces between liquid and gas, liquid and solid, and so on, using
nonequilibrium computer simulation is introduced. The density structure,
transport
characteristics, and dynamical evolution of interfaces are treated.
