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 …

When liquid is subjected to a pressure below absolute zero, the phase change is favorable;
however, phase change might be prevented or substantially hindered by the attractive …

The interplay among the cavitation structures and the shock waves following a nanosecond
laser breakdown in water in the vicinity of a concave surface was visualized with high-speed …

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

The properties of supercooled water have been the subject of intense studies for decades.
One of the main goals was to follow the evolution of water anomalies, already present in the …

The secondary cavitation generation following laser-induced breakdown in aqueous media
in spherical geometry, mimicking the geometry of the frontal part of the human eye, was …

We investigated secondary cavitation bubble dynamics during laser-induced bubble
formation in a small container with a partially confined free surface and elastic thin walls. We …

Cavitation inception is generally determined by the tensile strengths of liquids. Investigations
on the tensile strength of water, which is essential in many fields, will help understand the …

Revealing the expansion and interaction dynamics of multiple shock waves induced by a
nanosecond laser is important for controlling laser surgery. However, the dynamic evolution …

Metals and polymers are the materials most frequently used in hydromachinery components
that are prone to cavitation damage. This study examined the damage mechanism of metals …
