Sauter Mean Radius for a pure foam and two fibre-foam dispersions as a function of time. The pure foam had an initial liquid fraction of 0.25. Both fibre-foam dispersions contained the same mass of fibres with initial liquid fractions 0.25 and 0.50 respectively. The pure foam continues to coarsen until there is no foam remaining, whereas where fibres have been added, coarsening ceases after approximately 30 minutes, regardless of the initial liquid fraction. Solid lines are fits to the coarsening law, r32(t-to)1/2
