Local origin of the visco-elasticity of a millimetric elementary foam [PDF]
Liquid foam exhibits surprisingly high viscosity, higher than each of its phases. This dissipation enhancement has been rationalized by invoking either a geometrical confinement of the shear in the liquid phase, or the influence of the interface ...

pH effects on the molecular structure and charging state of b-Escin biosurfactants at the air-water interface [PDF]
Saponins like b-escin exhibit an unusually high surface activity paired with a remarkable surface rheology which makes them as biosurfactants highly interesting for applications in soft matter colloids and at interfaces.

Nonlinear Dynamics in experimental devices with compressed/expanded surfactant monolayers [PDF]
A theory is provided for a common experimental set up that is used to measure surface properties in surfactant monolayers. The set up consists of a surfactant monolayer (over a shallow liquid layer) that is compressed/expanded in a periodic fashion by ...

Cooperative effects in surfactant adsorption layers at water/alkane interfaces
In the present work, the properties of dodecyl dimethyl phosphine oxide (C12DMPO) at the water/decane interface are studied and compared with those obtained earlier at the interface to hexane.

Fault-zone healing effectiveness and the structural evolution of strike-slip fault systems [PDF]
Numerical simulations of long-term crustal deformation reveal the important role that damage healing (i.e. fault-zone strengthening) plays in the structural evolution of strike-slip fault systems.

We show that the linearized equations of the incompressible elastic medium admit a `Maxwell form' in which the shear component of the stress vector plays the role of the electric field, and the vorticity plays the role of the magnetic field.

Dynamics of complex capillary flows: stability, rupture, and influence of surfactants [PDF]
Mención Internacional en el título de doctorFluid-fluid interfaces are ubiquitous in nature and everyday life, where they are found across scales and material properties, as for instance in many engineering, biological, and physiological applications ...

Abstract Magma transport through the Earth's shallow crust can be affected by pre‐existing weaknesses like faults. Consequently, fault‐channeled magma may reach the surface in unexpected locations. Hence, better understanding of magma‐fault interaction is needed to improve hazard assesment.

A finite strain fibre-reinforced viscoelasto-viscoplastic model of plant cell wall growth [PDF]
A finite strain fibre-reinforced viscoelasto-viscoplastic model implemented in a finite element (FE) analysis is presented to study the expansive growth of plant cell walls. Three components of the deformation of growing cell wall, i.e.

Stability of liquid film flow laden with the soluble surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate:Predictions versus experimental data [PDF]
Gravity-driven liquid film flows laden with a soluble surfactant are considered, and aqueous solutions of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) are taken as a case-study.
