High speed imaging study of the dynamics of ultrasonic bubbles at a liquid-solid interface (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tan, D., & Mi, J. High speed imaging study of the dynamics of ultrasonic bubbles at a liquid-solid interface

High speed imaging, including the ultrafast synchrotron X-ray imaging facility at the beamline 32-ID-B of the Advanced Photon Source (APS), was used to study in-situ (1) the dynamics of ultrasonic bubbles inside a water suspension with an acoustic fi...
