Tropical reservoirs have been identified as important methane (CH4) sources to the atmosphere, primarily through turbine and downstream degassing. However, the importance of ebullition (gas bubbling) remains unclear. We hypothesized that ebullition is a di ...
The majority of the research on cavitation luminescence has focused on the sonoluminescence or chemiluminescence generated by cavitation induced through ultrasound, with a lesser body of work on the luminescence induced by laser- or spark induced cavitatio ...
• The identification and control of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by polymers during lamination in the photovoltaic (PV) industry is of considerable importance to establish and optimize processes in order to ensure a long term reliability of t ...
Sonochemical elimination of organic pollutants can take place through two degradation pathways. Molecules with relatively large Henry’s law constants will be incinerated inside the cavitation bubble, while nonvolatile molecules with low Henry’s law constan ...
In a companion paper ("Modelling Bubbly Flow by population Balance Technique Part I: Axial Flow Development and Its Transitions, " ASME J. Fluids Eng), a two fluid model along with a multiclass population balance technique has been used to find out compreh ...
We present a theoretical framework for the thermodynamic properties of supercoiling-induced denaturation bubbles in circular double-stranded DNA molecules. We explore how DNA supercoiling, ambient salt concentration, and sequence heterogeneity impact on th ...
We study the state of a nanometric helium bubble in bcc-iron as a function of temperature and He content using atomistic calculations. It appears that up to moderate temperatures the Fe lattice can confine He to solid state, in good agreement with known sol ...
TiAl is a well known high temperature material with good creep properties. It is investigated as a potential structural material for Generation IV high temperature gas cooled nuclear reactors. The tests are performed with the ABB-2 (Ti-rich TiAl with 2 at. ...
We investigated the microcontainer shape in electropolymerization of polypyrrole (PPy) on bubbles using real-time microradiography. We revealed the existence of a "deformation force" at the three-phase boundary among gas (bubble), liquid (electrolyte), and ...
In the present study, a high energy pulsed laser is used to generate a millimetric cavitation bubble within a water flow over a symmetric hydrofoil. The bubble is initiated at different locations in the vicinity of the hydrofoil leading edge. A high-speed ...
