This review article presents a summary of the main categories of models developed for
modeling cavitation, a multiphase phenomenon in which a fluid locally experiences phase …

ALPACA is a simulation environment for simulating hyperbolic and (incompletely) parabolic
conservation laws with multiple distinct and immiscible phases. As prominent example …

We present a coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian method to simulate cloud cavitation in a
compressible liquid. The method is designed to capture the strong, volumetric oscillations of …

The dynamics of bubble clouds induced by high-intensity focused ultrasound is investigated
in a regime where the cloud size is similar to the ultrasound wavelength. High-speed images …

Purpose: Our goal was to test transcutaneous focused ultrasound in the form of ultrasonic
propulsion and burst wave lithotripsy to reposition ureteral stones and facilitate passage in …

Combined laboratory experiment and numerical simulation are conducted on bubble clouds
nucleated on the surface of a model kidney stone to quantify the energy shielding of the …

Jetting mechanisms in cavitation bubbles play a crucial role in the destructive forces of
cavitation. Depending on the application, these forces can have desirable effects like in …

The formation of a cavitation bubble cloud due to the high intensity focused ultrasound
(HIFU) with a laser-induced bubble near the focus has been investigated experimentally …

Despite the enormous increase in computational power in the last decades, the numerical
study of complex flows remains challenging. State-of-the-art techniques to simulate …

The interactions of cavitating bubbles with elastic and viscoelastic materials play a central
role in many biomedical applications. This thesis makes use of numerical modeling and data …
