Abstract
The 3D foam geometrical structure is measured by means of optical tomograph y associated with a reconstruction algorithm. The conductivity of the real foam is determined by solving the local Laplace equation. Results show that the foam structure is isotropic, and in good agreement with a formula whic h predicts the conductivity of a set of infinite planes. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
