A tiny bubble popping within a liquid seems more fanciful than traumatic. But millions of popping vapor bubbles can cause significant damage to rigid structures like boat propellers or bridge supports ...
Researchers embarked on a multidisciplinary project to determine how cavitation bubbles within micro- or nano-structures could mitigate surface erosion and enhance the efficiency in microfluidic ...
Bubbles created by pressurized water can directed at surfaces and trigger cavitation, the continued creation and collapse of bubbles. The addition of an ultrasonic transducer helps reinforce this ...
Cavitation is essentially a wild bit of physics that turns water — a ship's best friend — into a weapon with a massive destructive potential. It can happen around a ship's propeller and can eat ...
