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.

The Influence of Fragmentation on the Acoustic Response from Shrinking Bubbles

TL;DR: This work measured similar bubbles containing three different gases and their echo behavior with time compared with a simple simulation based on diffusion of gas out of the bubble, and found that the simulations and experiments compared well at low disruption pressures.

Engineering the Echogenic Properties of Microfluidic Microbubbles Using Mixtures of Recombinant Protein and Amphiphilic Copolymers

TL;DR: This work uses microfluidic flow-focusing to prepare monodisperse microbubbles with a mixture of a recombinant amphiphilic protein, oleosin, and a synthetic Amphiphilic copolymer, Pluronic and shows that these micro bubbles have superior uniformity and stability under ultrasonic stimulation compared to commercial agents.

Decompression characteristics of inert gases

TL;DR: In this article, a critical assessment of the relative decompression characteristics of several inert gases is presented, and experiments with mice indicate that the failure of a simple fat solubility model to predict quantitatively the potency of gases in causing decompression sickness may depend in part on the tolerance of the animals to the bubbles of the different gases, and also on the relative rates of gas elimination from the tissues and rates of bubble development characteristic of different gases.

In situ real-time 3D observation of porosity growth during composite part curing by ultra-fast synchrotron X-ray microtomography:

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental development addressing 3D void growth in epoxy-based carbon fiber-reinforced composites during their curing process is presented, where the authors investigate the effect of void growth on the performance of the composite.

Understanding the Stabilization of a Bulk Nanobubble: A Molecular Dynamics Analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the stability of the NB thermodynamic equilibrium is shown to be conditional on the number of gas molecules in NBs, and it is shown that a double-layer surface charge exists on the NB.

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.
