Abstract
A constrained free energy model for an interfacial system of interacting layers is derived in the regular solution and Redlich-Kister formalisms. Composition and interfacial energies are solved using a model based on the minimisation of the total free energy of the system with a fixed interfacial area. As example cases iron-oxygen and copper-oxygen surfaces and liquid-liquid metal alloy interfaces are studied.
