Abstract
Phase transformations in and on elastic substrates are affected by long-ran ge elastic forces. Two examples are discussed. Fractal growth of adsorbed c lusters and coarsening of isotropic inclusions inside a solid matrix are de scribed by selfconsistent scaling methods. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. A ll rights reserved.
