Interfacial Flows

Tuesday, November 10, 2009: 3:15 PM
Pres. Boardroom B (Gaylord Opryland Hotel)

Description:
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 individual drops and bubbles, and the behavior of emulsions and foams.
