Abstract

We review recent progress concerning an understanding of the rheological properties of foams, both in bulk form and confined in narrow channels, and including the problem of foam sliding along a solid wall. Our calculations contribute not only to the interpretation of rheological data, but also to the coupling of foam drainage and rheology.
