Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The problem of the passage of acoustic waves in the neighborhood of a gas bubble in a tube is formulated and solved numerically. The main parameters determining the bubble dynamics in a non-stationary field are determined. The mechanism of jet deformation of the bubble followed by jet fragmentation and formation of a secondary small-size bubble fraction is studied. A possible explanation of the nature of local sonoluminiscence is proposed.
