Abstract

Bubbles have very important applications in many fields such as shipbuilding engineering, ocean engineering, mechanical engineering, environmental engineering, chemical engineering, medical science and so on. In this paper, the research status and the development of the bubble dynamics in terms of theory, numerical simulation and experimental technique are reviewed, which cover the underwater explosion bubble, airgun bubble, spark bubble, laser bubble, rising bubble, propeller cavitation bubble, water entry/exit cavitation bubble and bubble dynamics in other fields. Former researchers have done a lot of researches on bubble dynamics and gained fruitful achievements. However, due to the complexity of the bubble motion, many tough mechanical problems remain to be solved. Based on the research progress of bubble dynamics, this paper gives the future research direction of bubble dynamics, aiming to provide references for researches related to bubble dynamics.
