Gas-liquid foam dynamics: From structural elements to continuum descriptions

PS Stewart, S Hilgenfeldt - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - annualreviews.org
Gas-liquid foams are important in applications ranging from oil recovery and mineral
flotation to food science and microfluidics. Beyond their practical use, they represent an …

The life of a surface bubble

J Miguet, F Rouyer, E Rio - Molecules, 2021 - mdpi.com
Surface bubbles are present in many industrial processes and in nature, as well as in
carbonated beverages. They have motivated many theoretical, numerical and experimental …

Marginal regeneration-induced drainage of surface bubbles

J Miguet, M Pasquet, F Rouyer, Y Fang, E Rio - Physical Review Fluids, 2021 - APS
The prediction of the lifetime of surface bubbles necessitates a better understanding of the
thinning dynamics of the bubble cap. In 1959, Mysels et al.[Soap Films: Studies of Their …

Coherence effects on the interference colors of soap films

NS Lalli, A Giusti - Journal of Applied Physics, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
Acquiring the thickness field of a soap film from interference colors requires an accurate
relationship between color and film thickness. Throughout the literature, an interference …

Coarsening of foams driven by concentration gradients of gases of different solubilities

B Dollet - Langmuir, 2023 - ACS Publications
The evolution of a foam driven by the transfer of two gases of different solubilities across the
soap films is studied. A bamboo foam, or a train of films, is used as a model system; it is …

[HTML][HTML] The stability of magnetic soap films

NS Lalli, L Shen, D Dini, A Giusti - Physics of Fluids, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
Although previous studies have shown that a magnetic field can drastically alter drainage in
soap films containing particles responsive to a magnetic field, which we refer to as magnetic …

Local origin of the visco-elasticity of a millimetric elementary foam

A Bussonnière, I Cantat - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2021 - cambridge.org
Liquid foam exhibits surprisingly high viscosity, higher than each of its phases. This
dissipation enhancement has been rationalized by invoking either a geometrical …

Instability and symmetry breaking of surfactant films over an air bubble

X Shi, GG Fuller, ESG Shaqfeh - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 - cambridge.org
We examine the asymmetric flows of aqueous surfactant films over an air bubble. A thin film
is formed by raising an equilibrated air bubble through an aqueous solution of Triton X-100 …

Abyss Aerosols: Drop Production from Underwater Bubble Collisions

X Jiang, L Rotily, E Villermaux, X Wang - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
Over the past century, drops production mechanisms from bubble bursting have been
extensively studied. They include the centrifugal fragmentation of liquid ligaments from the …

Spatiotemporal mapping of nanotopography and thickness transitions of ultrathin foam films

C Xu, Y Zhang, V Sharma - Soft Matter, 2024 - pubs.rsc.org
Freshly formed soap films, soap bubbles, or foam films display iridescent colors due to thin
film interference that changes as squeeze flow drives drainage and a progressive decrease …
