On the role of shear viscosity in mediating inertial cavitation from short-pulse, megahertz-frequency ultrasound
Pressure thresholds for inertial cavitation in water and biological media modeled as a viscous fluid are calculated using a numerical implementation of the Gilmore equation for adiabatic bubble oscillations. The threshold criterion is chosen to be a bubble collapse temperature of 5000 K in order to...
