TLDR
In this article, approximate solutions for the rate of solution by diffusion of a gas bubble in an undersaturated liquid-gas solution are presented, with the neglect of the translational motion of the bubble.
Abstract
With the neglect of the translational motion of the bubble, approximate solutions may be found for the rate of solution by diffusion of a gas bubble in an undersaturated liquid‐gas solution; approximate solutions are also presented for the rate of growth of a bubble in an oversaturated liquid‐gas solution. The effect of surface tension on the diffusion process is also considered.

Proving and interpreting the spontaneous formation of bulk nanobubbles in aqueous organic solvent solutions: effects of solvent type and content

TL;DR: It is shown that the mixing of organic solvents with pure water leads to the spontaneous formation of suspended nano-entities which exhibit long-term stability on the scale of months, and that, whilst bulk nanobubbles can exist inpure water, they cannot exist in pure organicsolvents and they disappear at some organic solvent-water ratio depending on the type of solvent.

Injectable oxygen delivery based on protein-shelled microbubbles

TL;DR: The fabrication and characterization of novel protein-encapsulated oxygen microbubbles designed for intravenous injection indicate that protein microbubble may serve as a suitable platform for direct injection of bioactive and therapeutic gases.

Mathematical model of diffusion-limited evolution of multiple gas bubbles in tissue.

TL;DR: The present work extends the previous model to accommodate interactions among multiple bubbles by allowing the diffusion region volume of each bubble to vary during bubble evolution, and for given decompression and tissue volume, bubble growth is sustained only if the bubble number density is below a certain maximum.

Dissolution of a spherical cap bubble adhered to a flat surface in air-saturated water

TL;DR: In this paper, a diffusion-driven dissolution of a sessile spherical cap bubble (SCB) adhered to a flat smooth surface is studied, which is based on a quasi-stationary approximation.

The Role of Microbubble Echo Phase Lag in Multipulse Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging

TL;DR: It is found that pulse sequences using AM significantly enhanced the nonlinear response of all studied microbubbles compared to PI (up to 15 dB more) when low insonation pressures under 200 kPa were used.

The Dynamics of Cavitation Bubbles

TL;DR: In this paper, three regimes of liquid flow over a body are defined, namely: (a) noncavitating flow, (b) cavitating flow with a relatively small number of cavitation bubbles in the field of flow, and (c) caviting flow with one large cavity about the body.
