General Outline

• Questions raised/addressed in this talk

• Overview of the system

• Initial results

Page 3: Bubble Motions in Bubble Rafts under Steady Shear

Two Questions

• What is the average flow behavior of slowly sheared bubble raft? (How does this relate to flow of foams?)

• What is the connection between average flow behavior and individual bubble motions?

Page 4: Bubble Motions in Bubble Rafts under Steady Shear

General properties

• Fluctuations in stress/energy.

• “Particle” rearrangements (T1 events, non-affine motions)

• Non-uniform shear

• Diffusive motion of “particles”.

Page 5: Bubble Motions in Bubble Rafts under Steady Shear

Two “types” of non-uniform shear

Non-uniform shear: region of non-zero and zero shear rate coexist

1) strain rate is continuous (usually exponential velocity).

2) strain rate is discontinuous.

Schematic of Apparatus

Inner radius ri: 3.84 cmOuter radius ro: 7.43 cmArea fraction: 0.95Boundary conditions: no slip at both walls, but inner cylinder is free to move.

Definition of Terms

Outer barrier moves with V

Strain: x/r

Strain Rate: d/dt = v/r

Viscosity: = stress/(strain rate)

Reminder of Geometry Consequences

• Couette Geometry: average stress, , proportional to 1/r2

• Yield stress, y:

=> critical radius beyond which “rigid” body or elastic behavior, strain rate is a continuous function of r.

Some Questions

• What sets the “critical” radius?• Why is strain rate discontinuous?

Consider “flow” during individual events and T1 events.

• What is the role of stress chains, if they exist?

Summary

• Apparent disagreement between average stress measurements and average velocity profile: strain-rate discontinuity needs to be understood.

• Connection between T1 events and short time bubble motions. Not clear the connection between T1 events and average velocity.

• Time averages rapidly converge despite very nonlinear short time motion.
