Folding Langmuir Monolayers
Weixing Lu, Charles M. Knobler, Robijn F. Bruinsma +2
The maximum pressure a two-dimensional surfactant monolayer is able to withstand is limited by the collapse instability towards formation of three-dimensional material. We propose…
Statistics of Shear-induced Rearrangements in a Model Foam
Shubha Tewari, Dylan Schiemann, Douglas J. Durian +3
Under steady shear, a foam relaxes stress through intermittent rearrangements of bubbles accompanied by sudden drops in the stored elastic energy. We use a simple model of foam tha…
Boojums and the Shapes of Domains in Monolayer Films
Jiyu Fang, Ellis Teer, Charles M. Knobler +2
Domains in Langmuir monolayers support a texture that is the two-dimensional version of the feature known as a boojum. Such a texture has a quantifiable effect on the shape of the…
