The motion of the microscopic surfaces affects material processing and performance. This work reviews the recent development of an approach that treats surface motion in a way that resembles the finite element analysis of deformations. The author restricts the investigation mainly to two mass transport mechanisms: migration of, and diffusion on an interface. Contents: I. Introduction; II. Interface migration: Formulation; III. Interface migration driven by surface tension and phase difference; IV. Interface migration in the presence of stress and electric fields; V. Diffusion on interface: Formulation; VI. Shape change due to surface diffusion under surface tension; VII. Diffusion on an interface between two materials; VIII. Surface diffusion driven by surface and elastic energy variation; IX. Electromigration on surface. The work contains a bibliography and presents numerical results and diagrams. Thus, this review is also a useful reference work. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0862.00009].
