Abstract
A computer simulation of the evolution of the two-dimensional soap froth, with initial configurations of 500 cells, provides strong evidence that the asymptotic value of μ2 the second moment of the distribution of cell sides, lies in the range 1·42 ±0.05 for the standard idealized model of soap froth.Keywords
