Liquid marbles can be characterized using elastic solid models consisting of a liquid surrounded by a soft solid membrane. The elastic properties of liquid marbles determine the amount of compression under a given external force. This is an important property as the elasticity of liquid marbles determines their morphology under a given stress. We show that the stress-strain relationship of liquid marbles can be described by σ∗Bo=0.6[1/(1−ehro)2−1], where Bo is the Bond number, σ* is the normalised stress, and ehr0 is the strain measured with respect to the equivalent radius of the liquid marble. This stress-strain relationship could pave the way for the development of microfluidic devices with robust liquid marbles.
