Solids are rigid, which means that when left undisturbed, their structures are nearly static. It
follows that these structures depend on history—but it is surprising that they hold readable …

Aqueous foams are complex fluids composed of gas bubbles tightly packed in a surfactant
solution. Even though they generally consist only of Newtonian fluids, foam flow obeys …

Liquid foams can behave like solids or liquids, depending on the applied stress and on the
experimental timescale. Understanding the origin of this complex rheology which gives rise …

Aqueous foams are suspensions of bubbles inside aqueous phases. Their multiphasic
composition leads to a complex rheological behavior that is useful in numerous applications …

We demonstrate that high dispersed phase volume fraction emulsions (ie, gel emulsions)
can be prepared in situ for microfluidic applications. Previously, the production of gel-like …

Many microfluidics devices, coating processes, or diphasic flows involve the motion of a
liquid meniscus on a wet wall. This motion induces a specific viscous force, that exhibits a …

Gas-liquid foams are important in applications ranging from oil recovery and mineral
flotation to food science and microfluidics. Beyond their practical use, they represent an …

Most major recent advances in the physics of monodisperse foams are centred around the
ability to generate them with excellent control of bubble sizes down to a few micrometers …

The elementary topological T 1 process in a two-dimensional foam corresponds to the flip of
one film with respect to the geometrical constraints, and is a process by which the structure …

Microfluidics offers great tools to produce highly-controlled dispersions of gas into liquid,
from isolated bubbles to organized microfoams. Potential technological applications are …
