Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj148t3m75" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />Surface tension measurements are challenged by jamming in yield stress fluids, even at small scales. However our setup allowing opposite directions in deformation provides a method to deal with elastoplastic forces and measure the surface tension of yield stress fluids.</p> </abstract>
