Flows of Wet Foamsand Concentrated Emulsions
ABSTRACT
The aim of this project was is to advance a microstructural understanding of foam and emulsion flows. The dynamics of
individual surfactant-covered drops and well as the collective behavior of dilute and concentrated was explored using
numerical simulations. The long-range goal of this work is the formulation of reliable microphysically-based statistical models
of emulsion flows.
