Pump-probe X-ray holographic imaging of laser-induced cavitation bubbles with femtosecond FEL pulses
Cavitation bubbles show many nonlinear characteristics of liquid and gas phase. Here the authors demonstrate coherent diffractive imaging of cavitation bubble using infrared pump and XFEL probe and discuss the formation and evolution of the bubbles.

A bubble fission model for collapsing cavitation bubbles
A bubble fission model that takes into account energy dissipation during violent collapses of cavitation bubbles is introduced by assuming volume conservation and continuity of the gas pressure during instantaneous breakup, invoking either Rayleigh–Taylor instability or high speed microjet formation.

Non-Spherical Cavitation Bubbles: A Review
Cavitation is a phase-change phenomenon from the liquid to the gas phase due to an increased flow velocity. As it causes severe erosion and noise, it is harmful to hydraulic machinery such as pumps, valves, and screw propellers.

Shockwaves from air bubbles within pits induced by nearby cavitation bubbles
The cavitation intensity in near-boundary regions was significantly affected by the smoothness of boundaries. Micro pits on these boundaries may harbor smaller air bubbles or gas nuclei, and cavitation bubbles within cavitation clouds or cavitation ...

Numerical Study of the Pulsation Process of Spark Bubbles under Three Boundary Conditions
In this study, a compressible three-phase homogeneous model was established using ABAQUS/Explicit. These models can numerically simulate the pulsation process of cavitation bubbles in the free field, near the flat plate target, and near the curved ...

Understanding cavitation-related mechanism of therapeutic ultrasound in the field of urology: Part I of therapeutic ultrasound in urology [PDF]
Shock waves are commonly used in the field of urology. They have two phases, positive and negative, and the bubble generation is roughly classified into acoustic cavitation (AC) and laser-induced cavitation (LIC).
