2014 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Interfacial and Non-Linear Flows I: Droplets and Emulsions

This session of contributed talks will focus on flows in which fluid interfaces play an essential role. Some topics of interest include the dynamics of thin liquid films and liquid bridges, motion of drops and bubbles, and the behavior of emulsions and foams.
