ARTISTIC FOAMS (17 entries) |
|||
Foams are beautiful and fun! We would like to capture some of these aspects in a collection of images and texts. We
invite everybody (participant of the school or not) to submit his or her
favourite foam related images (of any nature!) to us along with a title
and a brief explanation of what is seen in the image. This gallery will create a public library which people can use for preparations of talks etc. The participants of the school will vote on their favourite item, which will be awarded a price. In
order to avoid copyright problems, please only submit your own contributions
along with the declaration that we can publish them online - along with
your name. SUBMIT

“Why
planes would crash in foams” A foam flowing around an airfoil exerts on it a downwards lift, contrary to aerodynamics! The study of such a counterintuitive effect can help to better understand the mechanical bahaviour of foams and other complex fluids.
