Book excerpt: The subject of jamming and rheology is a broad and interdisciplinary one that is generating increasing interest. This book deals with one of the oldest unsolved problems in condensed matter physics - that of the nature of glass transition in supercooled liquids. Jamming and Rheology is a collection of reprinted articles from several fields, ranging from structural glasses to foams and granular materials. Glassy relaxation and constrained dynamics (jamming) occur at all scales, from microscopic to macroscopic - in the glass transition of supercooled liquids, in fluids confined to thin films, in the structural arrest of particles such as granular materials, and in foams which must be driven by an applied stress in order to flow. Because jamming occurs at the transition between where a flow occurs and where motion stops, it is hoped that there may be a universal feature that describes this transition in all systems. This volume shows that the systems described above share many common phenomenological features, and covers work done by a wide range of scientists and technologists working in areas from physics to chemistry to chemical and mechanical engineering.

Book Foams and Emulsions

Download or read book Foams and Emulsions written by J.F. Sadoc and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-03-31 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A general and introductory survey of foams, emulsions and cellular materials. Foams and emulsions are illustrations of some fundamental concepts in statistical thermodynamics, rheology, elasticity and the physics and chemistry of divided media and interfaces. They also give rise to some of the most beautiful geometrical shapes and tilings, ordered or disordered. The chapters are grouped into sections having fairly loose boundaries. Each chapter is intelligible alone, but cross referencing means that the few concepts that may not be familiar to the reader can be found in other chapters in the book. Audience: Research students, researchers and teachers in physics, physical chemistry, materials science, mechanical engineering and geometry.

Download or read book Final Report for DE FG02 03ER46071 Entitled UNDERSTANDING Foam Rheology from the Microscopic to the Macroscopic Scale written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research effort is focused on understanding the mechanical response of foams, and other complex fluids, from the microscopic to the macroscopic level. The research uses a model two-dimensional system: bubble rafts. Bubble rafts are a single layer of gas bubbles with liquid walls that float on a water surface. The work involves studies of the macroscopic response of foam under various conditions of external forcing, mesoscopic studies of bubble motion, and systematic variations of the microscopic details of the system. In addition to characterizing the specific properties of the bubble raft, a second aim of the research is to provide experimental tests of various general theories that have recently been developed to characterize complex fluids. Primarily, the focus is on testing the proposed jamming phase diagram paradigm. This paradigm suggests that a general jamme state of matter exists and is common to a wide range of systems, including foam, colloids, granular matter, glasses, and emulsions. Therefore, we have extended our research in two directions. First, we have included studies of plastic bead rafts. These are systems of plastic beads floating on the air-water interface. The advantage of plastic beads is that they do not pop, so they can be studied for the much longer periods of time required to measure the slow dynamics associated with the jammed state. Also, they allow us to explore a different density regime than the bubbles. Second, to better understand the role of defects in jamming behavior, we have done a few experiments on the impact of defects on domain growth.

Book An Experimental Study of Foam Rheology and Its Impact on Foam Performance in the Fractured System

Download or read book An Experimental Study of Foam Rheology and Its Impact on Foam Performance in the Fractured System written by Ying Yu and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foam has been gaining increasing attention from the gas and oil industries for its mobility control ability, especially for the fractured system. However, its performance is negatively affected by its instability at elevated temperature and pressure. In this research, a comprehensive investigation of nitrogen foam morphology and bulk and in-situ foam rheology has been performed, utilizing the microscope, rheometer, and core-flooding system to explore the effect of chemicals and foam generation methods. We found a direct correlation between the shear and in-situ rheology of foam that allows the prediction of apparent in-situ viscosity based on bulk foam rheology. Then, we focused on scCO2 foam made with a recent category of chemicals, viscoelastic surfactants (VES). The scCO2 foam performance in reservoir conditions has been tested with the PVT cell and core-flooding system. We found a strong correlation between the viscosity/viscoelasticity of the VES systems and their performance as foam stabilizers in both bulk form and porous media. To the best of our knowledge, these results unveil, for the first time, the impact of surfactant viscosity/viscoelasticity on supercritical CO2 foam performance in bulk and porous media in a systematic manner. Finally, we applied the above knowledge of the foam to the fractured Berea sandstone system. We noticed the significant foam mobility control ability in the fractured system, and we concluded the effect of fracture surface roughness on foam flow performance in the presence and absence of oil.

Download or read book The Physics of Foams written by D. L. Weaire and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ordinary foams such as the head of a glass of beer and more exotic ones such as solid metallic foams raise many questions for the physicist and have attracted a substantial research community in recent years. The present book describes the results of extensive experiments, computer simulations, and theories in an authoritative yet informal style, making ample use of illustrations and photographs. As an introduction to the whole field of the physics of foams it puts a strong emphasis on liquids while also including solid foams. Simple, idealized models are adopted and their consequences explored. Specific topics include: structure, drainage, rheology, conductivity, and coarsening. A minimum of mathematics is used. Theory and experiment are described together at every stage. A guide to further reading is provided through carefully selected references. This is a complete and coherent introduction to the subject which no other modern text currently offers.
