| description | Abstract Liquid foams respond plastically to external perturbations over some critical magnitude. This rearrangement process is directly related to the mechanical properties of the foams, playing a significant role in determining foam lifetime, deformability, elasticity, and fluidity. In this paper, we experimentally investigate the rearrangement dynamics of foams near a dry-wet transition. When a foam transforms from a dry state to a wet state, it is found that considering collective events, separated T1 events propagate in dry foams, while T1 events occur simultaneously in wet foams. This cross over to collective rearrangements is closely related to the change in local bubble arrangements and mobility. Furthermore, it is also found that a probability of collective rearrangement events occurring follows a Poisson distribution, suggesting that there is little correlation between discrete collective rearrangement events. These results constitute progress in understanding the dynamical properties of soft jammed systems, relevant for biological and material sciences as well as food science. |
