Vibration and Nonlinear Resonance in the Break-up of an Underwater Bubble
Lipeng Lai, Nathan C. Keim, Kamel Fezzaa +2
We use high-speed X-ray phase-contrast imaging, weakly nonlinear analysis and boundary integral simulations to characterize the final stage of underwater bubble break-up. The X-ray…

Curvature Singularity in the Asymmetric Breakup of an Underwater Air Bubble
Lipeng Lai
The presence of slight azimuthal asymmetry in the initial shape of an underwater bubble entirely alters the final breakup dynamics. Here I examine the influence of initial asymmetr…

Asymmetric bubble disconnection: persistent vibration evolves into smooth contact
Konstantin S. Turitsyn, Lipeng Lai, Wendy W. Zhang
Focusing a finite amount of energy dynamically into a vanishingly small amount of material requires that the initial condition be perfectly symmetric. In reality, imperfections are…
