Bubble Generation by a Cylinder Moving Beneath a Free Surface

Wave breaking and air bubble generation by a 2-D cylinder moving beneath a free surface were experimentally investigated. Measurements of the free surface profile and visualization of the air bubbles yield the threshold and the regime diagrams of the bubble generation, which depend on the cross-sect...
