  In this talk, I will present the Cahn-Hilliard Hydrodynamic Equations.
  These equations model a binary fluid that is partially miscible, i.e.
  the two fluids prefer to be separated but a transition layer is
  allowed at the interface of the fluids.  In the discussion, I will
  present the some of the physical concepts behind their derivation, the
  equations invariants, an associated Lyapunov functional, simulations
  and some associated analysis.
