# src/interface/
First-class interface geometry and DOF numbering for coupled problems (mortar
contact, FSI traces, interface reactions, surface chemistry), kept separate from
volume `Mesh` / `DOFHandler`.
Types:
- `AbstractInterfaceMesh`, `InterfaceMesh` — embedded polygonal or segment grids
(`Seg2` first) plus per-segment `InterfaceVolumeCoupling` to slave/master volume
elements.
- `InterfaceDOFHandler`, `create_interface_elements!` — same assignment discipline as
volume handlers (`Vertex` / `Cell` on the interface mesh only; no `Edge`/`Face`
until facet maps on interfaces exist).
Mortar quadrature, projection kernels, and composition with volume operators are
implemented on top of these structures in future work.
