The Noise Generated by the Collapse of a Cloud of Cavitation Bubbles [PDF]
, 1995 The focus of this paper is the numerical simulation of the dynamics and acoustics of a cloud of cavitating bubbles. The prototypical problem solved considers a finite cloud of nuclei that is exposed to a decrease in the ambient pressure which causes the

Acoustic Saturation in Bubbly Cavitating Flow Adjacent to an Oscillating Wall [PDF]
, 2000 Bubbly cavitating flow generated by the normal oscillation of a wall bounding a semi-infinite domain of fluid is computed using a continuum two-phase flow model. Bubble dynamics are computed, on the microscale, using the Rayleigh-Plesset equation.

Partial cavity instabilities [PDF]
, 1998 This paper reviews some of the literature on partial cavity instabilities on single hydrofoils and then summarizes the striking differences in the appearance and behavior of partial cavities on swept foils (as opposed to two-dimensional, unswept foils ...

Experimental Observations on the Flow Past a Plano-Convex Hydrofoil [PDF]
, 1966 Some new measurements and observations on the noncavitating and cavitating flow past a plano-convex hydrofoil are presented. Under some conditions of partial cavitation, strong, periodic oscillations both in the cavity length and forces exerted on the ...

The forces on a fish-inspired unsteady hydrofoil [PDF]
, 2007 The flow around an unsteady hydrofoil, undergoing simultaneous heaving and pitching motions which mimic the tail motions of carangiform fish (such as tuna), was investigated using simultaneous particle image velocimetry (PIV) and force measurement. These
