Observations of clustering inside oceanic bubble clouds and the effect on short-range acoustic propagation.

It has recently been shown [Weber, T. C. et al. (2007). "Acoustic propagation through clustered bubble clouds," IEEE J. Ocean. Eng. 32, 513-523] that gas bubble clustering plays a role in determining the acoustic field characteristics of bubbly fluids. In particular, it has been shown that clustering changes the bubble-induced attenuation as well as the ping-to-ping variability in the acoustic ...

Interactional effects of bubble size, particle size, and collector dosage on bubble loading in column flotation

The success of flotation operation depends upon the thriving interactions of chemical and physical variables. In this work, the effects of particle size, bubble size, and collector dosage on the bubble loading in a continuous flotation column were investigated. In other words, this work was mainly concerned with the evaluation of the true flotation response to the changes in the operating varia...

Acoustic Focusing in Shallow Water and Bubble Radiation Effects

The long term goals are to (1) understand the role of wave-induced bubbles in the upper ocean boundary layer on the performance of underwater communications systems and ambient noise generation, (2) study the implications of focusing by surface gravity waves on Doppler sonar and acoustic communications systems in shallow and very shallow water, and (3) study the performance of acoustic vector s...

Blood Brain Barrier Disruption by Focused Ultrasound and Microbubbles: A Numerical Study on Mechanical Effects

Introduction: Microbubbles are widely used as contrast agent in diagnostic ultrasound. Recently they have shown good potential for applications in the therapeutic field such as drug delivery to the brain. Recent studies have shown focused ultrasound in conjunction with injected micro-bubbles could temporarily disrupt blood-brain barrier and let therapeutic agents transport into...

Acoustic Roles of Bubbles in the Ocean

Lots of bubbles are generated in the ocean by breaking waves, wind, rain and many other agents. In the late 1950s, the importance of bubbles at sea as acoustic scatterers was introduced to oceanographers and SONAR users in ocean acoustics by Urick and Hoover [R.J.Urick and R.M.Hoover, J.Acoust.Soc.Am. 28, 1038-42 (1956)]. Most early attempts to observe bubbles in the ocean were optical techniqu...
