I am new to this field. My background is different but I have a project which involves modelling solidification process of polymer melt/solution. Could you suggest me a few articles/chapters for understanding the basics of this field first and further the background of the modelling process.
Best Regards,
You should read basic texts on polymer physics (states of aggregation, glass transition and crystallization). Amorphous polymers exhibit only glass transition, which is only "mechanical" solidification (constant shape but amorphous microstructure), semicrystalline polymers both glass transition and crystallization. Crystallization form dilute solution is different form solidification from melt. Related topics: Gibbs- Di Marzio theory, physical aging, volume and enthalpy relaxation

I believe this is enough for beginning
