First sentence: In directional solidification of a binary alloy under diffusive heat and mass transport, the flat solid-liquid interface is unstable when a critical value of the control parameter (proportional to ViCi/G, with Vi, Ci and G the interface velocity, solute concentration in the liquid and temperature gradient) is exceeded (Mullins &amp; Sekerka (1964)).
