In this paper, the fundamental physical processes involved in bubble dynamics and the phenomenon of cavitation are described and explained, and a review of the free streamline methods used to treat separated cavity flows with large attached cavities is provided.Abstract:
This book describes and explains the fundamental physical processes involved in bubble dynamics and the phenomenon of cavitation. It is intended as a combination of a reference book for those scientists and engineers who work with cavitation or bubble dynamics and as a monograph for advanced students interested in some of the basic problems associated with this category of multiphase flows. A basic knowledge of fluid flow and heat transfer is assumed but otherwise the analytical methods presented are developed from basic principles.
The book begins with a chapter on nucleation and describes both the theory and observations of nucleation in flowing and non-flowing systems. The following three chapters provide a systematic treatment of the dynamics of the growth, collapse or oscillation of individual bubbles in otherwise quiescent liquids. Chapter 4 summarizes the state of knowledge of the motion of bubbles in liquids. Chapter 5 describes some of the phenomena which occur in homogeneous bubbly flows with particular emphasis on cloud cavitation and this is followed by a chapter summarizing some of the experiemntal observations of cavitating flows. The last chapter provides a review of the free streamline methods used to treat separated cavity flows with large attached cavities.read more

Mechanisms of pulsed laser ablation of biological tissues.
Alfred Vogel,Vasan Venugopalan +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that the structure and morphology also affect the energy transport among tissue constituents and therefore the ablation efficiency of biological tissues is increased.

Mathematical Basis and Validation of the Full Cavitation Model
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the full cavitation model, which accounts for all the first-order effects of cavitation and is called as the full-cavitation model and the phase change rate expressions are derived from a reduced form of Rayleigh-Plesset equation for bubble dynamics.
