摘要：

Experimental evidence of the collapse of dilute lamellar phases due to shear flow is presented. Two systems are used: one composed of brine and an ionic surfactant, and another composed of water, a nonionic surfactant, and cosurfactant. We observe this transition for a range of lamellar spacings and brine salinity. The results are in reasonable agreement with recent theory in which the suppression of fluctuations by shear plays an important role.
