A cavitation bubble imposes shear stresses onto a nearby structure during its expansion and
collapse. Experimentally, we probe the tangential stresses on an elastic surface by …

When illuminated by a resonant laser, noble metal nanoparticles immersed in liquids can
efficiently produce a huge amount of heat and rapidly vaporize surrounding liquid, leading to …

Non‐invasive cancer treatment strategies that enable local non‐thermal ablation, hypoxia
relief, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production to achieve transiently destroying tumor …

Pressure reduction in liquids may result in vaporization and bubble formation—a process
known as cavitation. It is commonly observed in hydraulic machinery, ship propellers and …

While theoretical estimates suggest that cavitation of water should occur when pressure falls
much below− 25 MPa at room temperature, in experiments, we commonly observe …

The maximum size and lifetime of an acoustically nucleated cavitation bubble is inversely
proportional to the driving frequency and has achieved a limit of approximately 10 MHz …

Two pairs of converging and superimposing shock and Rayleigh waves are generated on a
glass substrate by focusing laser pulses on two concentric rings in a bullseye configuration …

A method is presented to carve into a glass submerged in water with laser‐induced surface
and shock waves. It starts with an elliptic wave source that launches an elliptically …

An experimental study of cavitating flow on a heated NACA0015 hydrofoil was conducted in
a cavitation tunnel to investigate the influence of the hydrofoil surface temperature on the …

The mechanism governing the extensive range of cavitation pressures remains unclear due
to the enigmatic nature of the non-equilibrium liquid–vapor phase transition at the cavitation …
