Flow patterns in breaking bubbles
Abstract
Fluid flow during bubble collapse is driven by high pressure gradients associated with high surface curvature. Experiments suggest that the driving force is at a maximum at the surface and preferentially accelerates the surface in boundary-layer shear flow down the cavity wall. An irrotational solitary capillary ripple precedes the main toroidal rim, transporting mass along the surface at about 90% of its phase velocity. The convergence of this flow creates opposed axial jets. About 20% of the boundary-layer thickness flows into the upward jet. The material in the top jet drop was originally spread over the interior bubble surface at an average thickness of some 0.05% of the bubble diameter.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
