等体积的肥皂泡容易结晶为有序的多面体泡沫结构时，引入到管的宽度是相同的数量级的气泡直径。在过去，大量的这些结构已被实验确定为圆柱形管。使用Ken Brakke的Surface Evolver软件计算每个气泡的表面能。现在，我们已经扩展这项工作，以管与方形和三角形的横截面，并提出了各种新的有序泡沫结构的实验数据和表面进化计算的结果。结果是存在仿真结果的所有结构的目录。
Soap bubbles of equal volume readily crystallize as ordered polyhedral foam structures when introduced into tubes whose width is of the same order as the bubble diameter. In the past a large number of these structures have been identified experimentally for cylindrical tubes. The surface energy per bubble was computed using Ken Brakke's Surface Evolver software. We have now extended this work to tubes with square and triangular cross-sections and present both experimental data and results of Surface Evolver calculations for a variety of new ordered foam structures. The result is a catalogue of all structures for which simulation results exist.
