An attractive alternative to mitigate the adverse effects of conventional water-based fluids on
the efficiency of hydraulic fracturing is to inject foam-based fracking fluids into reservoirs …

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 …

Emulsions, microemulsions, and foams are dispersions of two immiscible fiuids stabilized by
surface-active species. Emulsions and microemulsions are dispersions usually made with …

We report foam coarsening studies which were performed in the International Space Station
(ISS) to suppress drainage due to gravity. Foams and bubbly liquids with controlled liquid …

Coarsening of two-phase systems is crucial for the stability of dense particle packings such
as alloys, foams, emulsions, or supersaturated solutions. Mean field theories predict an …

We present the Moving Eulerian-Lagrangian Particles (MELP), a novel mesh-free method for
simulating incompressible fluid on thin films and foams. Employing a bi-layer particle …

Navigating topological transitions in cellular mechanical systems is a significant challenge
for existing simulation methods. While abstract models lack predictive capabilities at the …

For dry foams, the transport of gas from small high-pressure bubbles to large low-pressure
bubbles is dominated by diffusion across the thin soap films separating neighboring …

Aqueous foams are unstable and age by drainage and coarsening. Today, these effects are
well described, as also their impact on foam properties. In that respect, the foam viscoelastic …

We present high-precision data for the time evolution of bubble area A (t) and circularity
shape parameter C (t) for several bubbles in a quasi-two-dimensional foams consisting of …
