Experimental study of the collapse strength of a bubble merged from a spark-induced bubble and a pre-existing air bubble

Jian-Bo Li et al.

Summary: This research investigates the variation of the collapse strength of a merged bubble when a spark-induced bubble merges with a pre-existing air bubble. The study found that the relative distance and relative size of the bubbles have significant effects on the collapse strength of the merged bubble.

Laser-induced cavitation bubbles and shock waves in water near a concave surface

Tomaz Pozar et al.

Summary: The interaction between cavitation structures and shock waves following nanosecond laser breakdown in water near a concave surface was visualized using high-speed shadowgraphy and schlieren cinematography. Unlike near flat or convex surfaces, a concave surface refocuses shock waves, causing secondary cavitation near the acoustic focus triggered by the shock wave released during the first main bubble collapse. The observed effects are particularly significant in scenarios where cavities collapse near indented surfaces, such as in cavitation peening, cavitation erosion, and ophthalmology.

Fully coupled model for simulating highly nonlinear dynamic behaviors of a bubble near an elastic-plastic thin-walled plate

Wenbin Wu et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the interaction between a bubble and an elastic-plastic thin-walled plate, revealing that the structural nonlinear responses affect the bubble loading on the plate and result in different motion patterns and splitting phenomena. The developed three-dimensional fully coupled model enhances understanding of the dynamic behavior of the bubble-structure interaction.

Propagation of Shock Wave at the Cavitation Bubble Expansion Stage Induced by a Nanosecond Laser Pulse

Siyuan Geng et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the attenuation characteristics of a shock wave in water after optical breakdown, with findings of a shock wave front velocity reaching up to around 4000 m/s and a sharp attenuation process to sound velocity within 310 ns. A prediction model is proposed to calculate the location of the wave front.

Influence of multiple air bubbles on the collapse strength of a cavitation bubble

Jian-Bo Li et al.

Summary: This study found that multiple air bubbles have significant effects on the cavitation bubble, influencing its migration direction, oscillation time, and collapse sound pressure. It was also observed for the first time that air bubbles can split a cavitation bubble into two subcavitation bubbles.

Physical investigation of acoustic waves induced by the oscillation and collapse of the single bubble

Guohao Huang et al.

Summary: The experimental results demonstrate the generation of compression wave, rarefaction wave, and shock wave during different stages of bubble oscillation and collapse. Compression waves form into shock waves propagating outward in the liquid, and another strong shock wave is emitted at the final collapse stage. Rarefaction waves reduce liquid pressure during the collapse stage, with their pressure attenuating with increasing propagation distance.

Effect of stand-off distance on counterjet and high impact pressure by a numerical study of laser-induced cavitation bubble near a wall

Ju Zhang

Summary: In this study, a phenomenon of counterjet was observed during the collapse and rebound of a laser-induced cavitation bubble near a wall. Numerical simulations suggest that this counterjet might actually be a spiral trailing behind the main bubble. The inclusion of phase transition modeling is found to be crucial for capturing the bubble-wall distance evolution accurately, and the impact pressure is significantly affected by the stand-off distance.

Stratification effect of air bubble on the shock wave from the collapse of cavitation bubble

Jing Luo et al.

Summary: The study found that the relative distance and size between the cavitation bubble and air bubble play a dominant role in the stratification effect exerted by the air bubble on the shock wave. When the two bubbles merge, the energy and pressure peak of the shock wave decrease significantly to less than 40% of the original values.

Numerical investigation of non-condensable gas effect on vapor bubble collapse

T. Trummler et al.

Summary: Numerical investigation was conducted on the effect of non-condensable gas inside a vapor bubble on bubble dynamics and collapse pressure, with a multi-component model proposed and validated for vapor bubbles containing gas. The simulations showed that the non-condensable gas has a significant impact on the rebound and damping of shock waves emitted during bubble collapse.
