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.

Effect of polymer surface activity on cavitation nuclei stability against dissolution.

TL;DR: Comparison of the experimental results with dissolution times computed from the Epstein-Plesset equation suggests that the radii of residual bubbles from inertial cavitation increase as the surface tension decreases.

Effects of ambient hydrostatic pressure on the material properties of the encapsulation of an ultrasound contrast microbubble

TL;DR: The model that accounts for enhancement in material properties with increasing ambient pressure matches with experimentally measured subharmonic response as a function of ambient pressure, while assuming constant material parameters does not.

On the mechanisms that sustain the inception of attached cavitation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors address the question of why the inception of attached cavitation on curved surfaces or hydrofoils at incidence is relatively insensitive to the concentration of free-stream nuclei.

Dynamics of gas bubbles in time-variant temperature fields

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of temperature on the dynamics of a single gas bubble in a liquid is investigated, and it is shown that the natural tendency for a bubble to dissolve can be reversed by an increase in temperature, but only above a certain radius-dependent threshold rate of heating.

Ultrafast Modulation of Thermoplasmonic Nanobubbles in Water

TL;DR: It is shown that isolated plAsmonic structures can be utilized as highly localized heating elements to generate thermoplasmonic nanobubbles that can be modulated at frequencies up to several kilohertz in water, orders of magnitude faster than previously demonstrated for microbubbles.

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.
