Using volume-of-fluid simulations with and without a collision-suppression force, the authors show that droplet coalescence is responsible for the negative curvature of the emulsion viscosity curve and that suppressing coalescence makes emulsions behave like suspensions of deformable particles.

On the effect of coalescence on the rheology of emulsions
Using volume-of-fluid simulations with and without a collision-suppression force, the authors show that droplet coalescence is responsible for the negative curvature of the emulsion viscosity curve and that suppressing coalescence makes emulsions behave like suspensions of deformable particles.
