Abstract:	In this paper, three-dimensional boundary integral computer simulations of emulsions in shear flows are described. Results for ordered BCC emulsions with dispersed-phase volume fractions below the critical concentration are presented. Complex rheological features including: shear-thinning viscosities, normal stress differences, and a nonlinear frequency response are also explored. For deformable drops, pair wise collision produces net cross-flow displacements that govern self-diffusion of drops. We compute trajectories of two interacting drops in shearing and present interesting numerical simulations of three dimensional gravity-induced motion of two drops. The results also demonstrate the feasibility of simulating high-volume-fraction emulsions and foam.
