Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) additive manufacturing (AM) technology has been applied
to manufacture complex components which have already been used in aerospace …

It has long been shown that therapeutic ultrasound can be used effectively to ablate solid
tumors, and a variety of cancers are presently being treated in the clinic using these types of …

Laser powder bed fusion is a dominant metal 3D printing technology. However, porosity
defects remain a challenge for fatigue-sensitive applications. Some porosity is associated …

Bubbles in liquids, soft and squeezy objects made of gas and vapour, yet so strong as to
destroy any material and so mysterious as at times turning into tiny light bulbs, are the topic …

In order to elucidate the mechanism of cavitation erosion, the dynamics of a single laser-
generated cavitation bubble in water and the resulting surface damage on a flat metal …

The interaction of a laser-induced cavitation bubble with an elastic boundary and its
dependence on the distance between bubble and boundary are investigated …

When bubbles expand and collapse close to boundaries, a shear flow is generated which is
able to remove particles from the surface, thus locally cleaning it. Here the authors …

When a shock wave propagates through a medium of nonuniform thermodynamic
properties, several processes occur simultaneously that alter the geometry of the shock …

The study of the interaction of bubbles with shock waves and ultrasound is sometimes
termed 'acoustic cavitation'. It is of importance in many biomedical applications where sound …

Theoretical treatments of the dynamics of a single bubble in a pressure field have been
undertaken for many decades. Although there is still scope for progress, there now exists a …
