Ramaswamy, S (1997) Excess dissipation in dense emulsions. [Book Chapter]
Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
A new model for the structure, elastic properties and dynamics of foams and concentrated emulsions is presented, based on the idea of local regions lacking shear-rigidity in one or more directions which vary randomly through the medium. It is shown to lead naturally to slow (t(-1/2)) stress-relaxation, implying a piece of the dynamic modulus scaling with frequency omega as omega(1/2). Striking experimental confirmation of this prediction using a novel experimental technique is reported, and challenges for the theoretician are offered. This work was done in collaboration with Andrea Liu, Tom Mason, Hu Gang, and David Weitz [1].
