E-Mail IMAGE: An initial crack in a film creates a RVPB (a). A second crack event in the film (b) causes a collapse front to be formed which sweeps up the RVPB. view more Credit: Tokyo Metropolitan University Tokyo, Japan - Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have revealed how liquid foams collapse by observing individual collapse events with high-speed video microscopy. They found that cracks in films led to a receding liquid front which sweeps up the original film border, inverts its shape, and releases a droplet which hits and breaks other films. Their observations and physical model provide key insights into how to make foams more or less resistant to collapse. ....
E-Mail IMAGE: A rearrangement event in a monodisperse foam. Note how bubbles move in the same direction along the same row, or in exactly the opposite direction in adjacent rows over long. view more Credit: Tokyo Metropolitan University Tokyo, Japan - Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University studied the dynamics of foams. When a drop of water was added to a foam raft, the bubbles rearranged themselves to reach a new stable state. The team found that bubble movement was qualitatively different depending on the range of bubble sizes present. Along with analogies with soft-jammed materials, these findings may inspire the design of new foam materials for industry. ....
