The effect of scalable PDMS gas-entrapping microstructures on the dynamics of a single cavitation bubble

Abstract The effect of gas-entrapping polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microstructures on the dynamics of cavitation bubbles laser-induced next to the PDMS surface is investigated and compared against the cavitation dynamics next to a flat smooth boundary. Local pressure gradients produced by a cavitatio...
