A simple phenomenological theory of liquid-sold phase transitions, based on the use of perturbation theory about a hard-sphere fluid, is examined. A temperature dependent hard-sphere diameter is determined which permits the prediction of solid and liquid densities and melting pressures. Calculations

The kinetics of the solid-liquid transition in tin have been studied using a thermal wave technique. The relationship between interface velocity V and local undercooling 6 T is found to be linear, i.e. l' = ,&T with the kinetic constant ,u equal to 0.007, 0.008 and 0.019 cm/se0 "C for motion in the
A numerical rxlculation based on the molecular dynamics method is described and the dynamical chaacteristics oi the interracial layer between the liquid and solid phases are studied. Special initial and boundary conditions have been used. The chmxcterirtic vibrations and the anisotropy
