Numerical study of bubble dynamics with the Boundary Element Method

A new Boundary Element Method software for simulating bubble dynamics is presented. This tool allows us to simulate a wide variety of scenarios, including external acoustic fields and multiple bubble interaction. We present results on the interaction between two oscillating bubbles in various config...

Description
Summary:A new Boundary Element Method software for simulating bubble dynamics is presented. This tool allows us to simulate a wide variety of scenarios, including external acoustic fields and multiple bubble interaction. We present results on the interaction between two oscillating bubbles in various configurations. Different sized bubbles under the effects of acoustic fields at different frequencies have been considered.
