Abstract
The shielding instability is expected to occur typically in intermediate Re flows where the vertical bubble interactions dominate over the horizontal interactions. This new kind of instability is studied here in a great detail, likely for the first time. Its relation to the elasticity properties of bubbly suspension on different length scales is discussed too. The shielding force takes the form of a negative bulk modulus of elasticity of the bubbly mixture.
