The present work investigates the internal flow structure of two condensing droplets of aqueous solution during interaction. The velocity of fluid inside the droplets was investigated by confocal micro-PIV technique. Condensation on the…
Hard particle erosion and cavitation damage are two main wear problems that can affect the internal components of hydraulic machinery such as hydraulic turbines or pumps. If both problems synergistically act together, the damage can be more…
A liquid subjected to negative pressure is thermodynamically metastable. Confined within a small volume, negative pressure can build up until cavities form spontaneously. The critical negative pressure for cavitation in water has been…

Ultrasonic irradiation of liquids, such as water-alcohol solutions, results in cavitation or the formation of small bubbles. Cavitation bubbles are generated in real solutions without the use of optical traps making our system as close to…
Jetting of collapsing bubbles is a key aspect in cavitation-driven fluid-solid interactions as it shapes the bubble dynamics and additionally due to its direct interaction with the wall. We study experimentally and numerically the near-wall…
We show theoretically that the emission spectrum of a single large quantum dot strongly coupled to a single photon mode in a microcavity can be qualitatively different from the spectrum obtained with an atom in a cavity. Instead of the…
We study the bursting of a bubble on a liquid free surface under critical conditions, i.e., those leading to the minimum (maximum) size (velocity) of the first-emitted jet droplet. Our experiments show that a tiny amount of surfactant…

Air entrainment can occur when a water jet impacts a water/air interface, a process central in various real systems, ranging from dam spills to breaking waves. Despite its prevalence, a comprehensive description of the mechanism controlling…
Cloud cavitation is related to an intrinsic instability where clouds are shed periodically. The shedding process is initiated either by the motion of a liquid re-entrant jet or a condensation shock. Cloud cavitation in nozzles interacts…
