    Some models of phase equilibria as local minima of a Lagrangian functional are shown to allow configurations where macroscopic strain is generally discontinuous, but internal variables (and derivatives) vary smoothly across the 'phases'. The stability properties of 'regularizations' of such equilibria are also investigated.
