AbstractMaterial pitting from cavitation bubble collapse is investigated numerically including two-way fluid–structure interaction (FSI). A hybrid numerical approach which links an incompressible boundary element method (BEM) solver and a compressible finite difference flow solver is applied to capture non-spherical bubble dynamics efficiently and accurately. The flow codes solve the fluid dynamics while intimately coupling the solution with a finite element structure code to enable simulation of the full FSI. During bubble collapse high impulsive pressures result from the impact of the bubble re-entrant jet on the material surface and from the collapse of the remaining bubble ring. A pit forms on the material surface when the impulsive pressure is large enough to result in high equivalent stresses exceeding the material yield stress. The results depend on bubble dynamics parameters such as the size of the bubble at its maximum volume, the bubble standoff distance from the material wall, and the pressure driving the bubble collapse. The effects of these parameters on the re-entrant jet, the following bubble ring collapse pressure, and the generated material pit characteristics are investigated.

An experimental study concerning the shock wave—bubble interaction was conducted in order to obtain a unified consideration of the mechanism of the impulsive pressure generation induced by the cavitation bubble collapse. It was found that the relation between the maximum impulsive pressure, pG, max, and the relative distance, lc/Re, is closely similar to the known result obtained from a single spark-generated bubble, and that a gas bubble within the region of lc/Re ≤ 7 behaves as a source capable of generating more intensive impulsive pressure than the impact pressure induced by a shock wave impinging directly on a solid wall without the presence of a gas bubble.

A microscale model of the brain was developed in order to understand the details of intracranial fluid cavitation and the damage mechanisms associated with cavitation bubble collapse due to blast-induced traumatic brain injury (TBI). Our macroscale model predicted cavitation in regions of high concentration of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood. The results from this macroscale simulation directed the development of the microscale model of the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) region. The microscale model includes layers of scalp, skull, dura, superior sagittal sinus, falx, arachnoid, subarachnoid spacing, pia, and gray matter. We conducted numerical simulations to understand the effects of a blast load applied to the scalp with the pressure wave propagating through the layers and eventually causing the cavitation bubbles to collapse. Collapse of these bubbles creates spikes in pressure and von Mises stress downstream from the bubble locations. We investigate the influence of cavitation bubble size, compressive wave amplitude, and internal bubble pressure. The results indicate that these factors may contribute to a greater downstream pressure and von Mises stress which could lead to significant tissue damage.

Understanding the dynamic characteristic of the cavitation bubble near a solid wall is a fundamental issue for the bubble collapse application and prevention. In the present work, an improved three-dimensional multi-relaxation-time pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann model is adopted to investigate the cavitation bubble collapse near the solid wall. With respect to thermodynamic consistency, Laplace law verification, the three-dimensional pseudopotential multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model is investigated. By the theoretical analysis, it is proved that the model can be regarded as a solver of the Rayleigh–Plesset equation, and confirmed by comparing the results of the lattice Boltzmann simulation and the Rayleigh–Plesset equation calculation for the case of cavitation bubble collapse in the infinite medium field. The bubble collapse near the solid wall is modeled using the improved pseudopotential multi-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model. We find the lattice Boltzmann simulation and the experimental results have the same dynamic process by comparing the bubble profiles evolution. Form the pressure field and the velocity field evolution it is found that the tapered higher pressure region formed near the top of the bubble is a crucial driving force inducing the bubble collapse. This exploratory research demonstrates that the lattice Boltzmann method is an alternative tool for the study of the interaction between collapsing cavitation bubble and matter.
