Abstract
We study the initial-value problem posed by the small-amplitude (linearized) free oscillations of free drops, gas bubbles, and drops in a host liquid when viscous effects cannot be neglected. It is found that the motion consists of modulated damped oscillations, with the damping parameter and frequency approaching only asymptotically the results of the normal-mode analysis. The connexion with the normal-mode method is demonstrated explicitly and the experimental relevance of our results is discussed.

Waves and jets on a sessile bubble -- Part 1

TL;DR: In this article , it was shown that large amplitude, shape deformations, imposed on a spherical-cap sessile gas bubble pinned on to a rigid wall can produce a sharp, wall-directed jet.

Ultrasound contrast agents: resonances of coated bubbles

TL;DR: In this article , a new model was introduced which takes into account the physical properties of a lipidmonolayer coating on a gas microbubble, and three parameters describe the properties of the shell: a buckling radius, the compressibility of shell, and a break-up shell tension.

Energy-conserving formulation of the CSF model for the simulation of surface tension at fluid-fluid interfaces with smoothed particle hydrodynamics

TL;DR: In this article , a new discretization of the Continuum Surface Force (CSF) model is proposed, which conserves the total energy of the fluid, suppressing the aforementioned spurious currents successfully.

Numerical Inversion of Laplace Transforms: An Efficient Improvement to Dubner and Abate's Method

F. Durbin
- 01 Nov 1974 - 
TL;DR: An accurate method is presented for the numerical inversion of Laplace transform, which is a natural continuation to Dubner and Abate's method, and the error bound on the inverse f{t) becomes independent of t, instead of being exponential in t.

The oscillations of a fluid droplet immersed in another fluid

TL;DR: In this paper, a general dispersion equation is derived by which frequency and rate of damping of oscillations can be calculated for arbitrary values of droplet size, physical properties of the fluids, and interfacial viscosity and elasticity coefficients.

Viscous effects on perturbed spherical flows

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of describing free oscillations of a viscous liquid drop and of a bubble in a fluid is studied in detail, and it is shown that the oscillations are initially describable in terms of an irrotational approximation, and that the normal-mode results are recovered as t −* <».

The oscillations of a viscous liquid drop

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that for the diffraction of an arbitrary two-dimensional incident pulse by a wedge of angle n, the ratio of the resultant velocity potential to the corresponding value of the incident pulse at the corner of the wedge at any instant is equal to 2x/ (2x n) n; and that for a threedimensional pulse diffraction by a cone of solid angle u>, the ratio at the vertex of the cone is equal tO 4ir/ (47T ) co).
