Yielding and fracturing of concentrated emulsions in narrow gaps

We used rheology and confocal microscopy techniques to characterise the flow of emulsions as the droplets were confined by increasing the drop volume fraction and reducing the distance between the shearing surfaces. Slip was minimised by matching the density of the oil and water phases. Attractive i...
