Relaxing in foam
arXiv:cond-mat/0208181 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.91.188303
Abstract
We investigate the mechanical response of an aqueous foam, and its relation to the microscopic rearrangement dynamics of the bubble-packing structure. At rest, even though the foam is coarsening, the rheology is demonstrated to be linear. Under flow, shear-induced rearrangements compete with coarsening-induced rearrangements. The macroscopic consequences are captured by a novel rheological method in which a step-strain is superposed on an otherwise steady flow.
