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.

Statistical rate theory of interfacial transport. II. Rate of isothermal bubble evolution in a liquid–gas solution

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the statistical rate theory approach to derive the expression for the rate of gas absorption by a liquid and incorporated it in an integral equation approach for predicting the rate in evolution of a bubble evolving isothermally in a liquid-gas solution.

Pore-scale capillary pressure analysis using multi-scale X-ray micromotography

TL;DR: In this article, a multi-scale synchrotron-based X-ray microtomographic dataset of residually trapped air after gravity-driven brine imbibition was acquired for three samples with differing pore topologies and morphologies; image volumes were reconstructed with voxel sizes from 4.44 µm down to 0.64 µm.

Reproducible cavitation activity in water-particle suspensions

TL;DR: An experimental technique is demonstrated which allows repeatable measurements of cavitation activity in liquid-particle suspensions, and the importance of the particle's surface structure and its chemical composition is revealed.

Pitfalls in quantitative contrast echocardiography: the steps to quantitation of perfusion.

TL;DR: With further improvement in the ultrasound imaging techniques and microbubble stability, CE may offer an inexpensive, noninvasive means of assessing myocardial perfusion and offers a potentially powerful tool in the clinical management of patients with ischemic heart disease.

Doubly Reentrant Cavities Prevent Catastrophic Wetting Transitions on Intrinsically Wetting Surfaces.

TL;DR: Microtextures comprising doubly reentrant cavities might enable applications of conventional materials without chemical modifications, especially in scenarios that are prone to localized damages or immersion in wetting liquids, for example, hydrodynamic drag reduction and membrane distillation.

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.
