Hydrodynamic cavitation is considered to be a promising technology for process
intensification, due to its high energy efficiency, cost-effective operation, ability to induce …

Microfluidic technology provides a unique environment for the investigation of crystallization
processes at the nano or meso scale. The convenient operation and precise control of …

In this work we present experiments and simulations on the nucleation and successive
dynamics of laser-induced bubbles inside liquid droplets in free-fall motion, ie a case where …

Explosions are spectacular and intriguing phenomena that expose the dynamics of matter
under extreme conditions. We investigated, using time-resolved imaging, explosions …

The present paper focuses on the numerical simulation of the interaction of laser-generated
bubbles with a free surface, including comparison of the results with instances from high …

A number of acoustic and fluid-dynamic phenomena appear in ultrasonic cleaning baths
and contribute to physical cleaning of immersed surfaces. Propagation and repeated …

A rapidly growing bubble close to a free surface induces jetting: a central jet protruding
outwards and a crown surrounding it at later stages. While the formation mechanism of the …

Cavitation bubble dynamics, such as microjets and moving shock waves, are strongly
influenced by their surroundings. We investigated the complex bubble behavior during the …

Single bubble dynamics are of fundamental importance for understanding the underlying
mechanisms in liquid–vapor transition phenomenon known as cavitation. In the past years …

Clinical viscoelastic hemostatic assays, which have been used for decades, rely on
measuring biomechanical responses to physical stimuli but face challenges related to high …
