• Drainage– gravity– pressure gradient
• Coarsening– diffusion of gas

• DWS (Diffusing Wave Spectroscopy)
• In soft materials, the speckles fluctuate due to the microscopic motion in the media.
• Local dynamic properties can be studied by intensity autocorrelation function.

• These shapes are identical to those obtained for diffusing Brownian particles,despite the absence of any such motion.
