X Abstract

By focusing on entire bubbles rather than films or vertices; a simple model is proposed for the deformation and flow of foam in which dimensionality; polydispersity; and liquid content can easily be varied. Simulation results are presented for the linear elastic properties as a function of bubble volume fraction; showing a melting transition where the static shear modulus vanishes and the relaxation time scale peaks. Results are also presented for shear stress versus strain rate; showing intermittent flow via avalanchelike topological rearrangements and Bingham-plastic behavior.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
