We report experimental observations of the volume acoustic modes of air bubbles in water, including both the fundamental Minnaert breathing mode and a family of higher-order modes extending into the megahertz frequency range. Bubbles were…
Here the fluctuation properties of acoustic localization in bubbly water is explored. We show that the strong localization can occur in such a system for a certain frequency range and sufficient filling fractions of air-bubbles. Two…
Wave localization is a ubiquitous phenomenon. It refers to situations that transmitted waves in scattering media are trapped in space and remain confined in the vicinity of the initial site until dissipated. Here we report a phase…
We propose a low-dimensional modeling approach to simulate the dynamics, acoustic emissions and interactions of cavitation bubbles, based on a quasi-acoustic assumption. This quasi-acoustic assumption accounts for the compressibility of the…
Microbubbles excited by acoustic fields inside water oscillate, and generate acoustic radiation forces and drag-induced acoustic streaming. These forces can be harnessed in various biomedical applications such as targeted drug delivery and…

Generation of an acoustic wave by two pump sound waves is studied in a three-phase marine sediment that consists of a solid frame and the pore water with air bubbles in it. To avoid shock-wave formation the interaction is considered in the…
Eigenfrequencies of two mutually interacting gas bubbles in an acoustic field are discussed theoretically and numerically. It is shown by a linear theory that a bubble interacting with a neighboring bubble has three eigenfrequencies that…
In these fluid dynamics videos, we show how bubbles flowing in a thin microchannel interact under an acoustic field. Because of acoustic interactions without direct contact, bubbles self-organize into periodic patterns, and spontaneously…
The outcome of this paper was a shape of the interaction of two oscillating bubbles. This was done to express the secondary Bjerknes force using the Maxwell equations for a liquid. These subsequent equations were written for the quantities…
In this manuscript we introduce cubic bubbles that are pinned to 3D printed millimetric frames immersed in water. Cubic bubbles are more stable over time and space than standard spherical bubbles, while still allowing large oscillations of…
Acoustic droplet vaporization denotes the phase-change of micron- and sub-micron-sized droplets upon the application of high-amplitude ultrasound. The asymmetric collapse of the incepted vapor bubbles within the droplets can give rise to…
This paper considers acoustic scattering by and propagation through line and plane arrays of air-bubbles in liquid media. The self-consistent method is used to derive the effective scattering function of a single bubble embedded in the…
An air bubble trapped in water by an oscillating acoustic field undergoes either radial or nonspherical pulsations depending on the strength of the forcing pressure. Two different instability mechanisms (the Rayleigh--Taylor instability and…

Results of the measurements of sound speed and attenuation in a bubbly medium are reported. Monodisperse bubble solutions are sonicated with broadband ultrasound pulses with pressure amplitudes ranging between 12.5-100 kPa. Fundamental…
We show that repeated sound waves in the intracluster medium (ICM) can be excited by a single inflation episode of an opposite bubble pair. To reproduce this behavior in numerical simulations the bubbles should be inflated by jets, rather…

We study the time-domain acoustic wave propagation in the presence of a micro-bubble. This micro-bubble is characterized by a mass density and bulk modulus which are both very small as compared to the ones of the background vacuum. The goal…
The paper presents a discussion on localization of acoustic waves. Some important questions about wave localization are addressed. Particular attention is paid to acoustic localization in liquid media containing many air-filled bubbles. It…
