Laser-induced cavitation bubble near boundaries

Laser-induced cavitation bubble has been widely used to investigate the mechanisms of hydraulic machinery cavitation erosion and to explore applications in atomization,alloy strengthening,ultrasonic chemistry,biomedicine,surface cleaning and materials processing.This paper consolidates existing research findings on the cavitation bubble dynamics near different boundaries and provides insights for future research work.Firstly,the dynamics of a single cavitation bubble in an infinite field is presented.Subsequently,the focus shifts to the dynamics of cavitation bubble near a rigid wall,angular walls,particles and hydrofoil.Lastly,the paper delves into the dynamics of cavitation bubble within a droplet,revealing the microscopic mechanism of droplet breakup induced by cavitation bubble.
