Abstract
This chapter is composed of two complementary efforts. The first section of this chapter is concerned with the determination of the fundamental parameters of the two well studied eclipsing binary systems CW Cep and U Oph. We provide an overview of the systems, introduce the data, and discuss the modelling the systems. With the updated binary solution, we perform detailed evolutionary modelling using the models described in Chap. 2 and infer the properties of the stellar core. Using CW Cep and U Oph as case studies to demonstrate that we can precisely infer the properties of the stellar core, we then set out to characterise the core properties of a large sample of eclipsing binaries.
