Non-Newtonian properties on bubble dynamics and cavitation are
fundamentally different from those of Newtonian fluids. The most
significant effect arises from the dramatic increase in viscosity
of polymer solutions in an extensional flow, such as that generated
about a spherical bubble during its growth or collapse phase. In
addition, many biological fluids, such as blood, synovial fluid,
and saliva, have non-Newtonian properties and can display
significant viscoelastic behaviour. This monograph elucidates
general aspects of bubble dynamics and cavitation in non-Newtonian
fluids and applies them to the fields of biomedicine and
bioengineering. In addition it presents many examples from the
process industries. The field is strongly interdisciplinary and the
numerous disciplines involve have and will continue to overlook and
reinvent each others' work. This book helps researchers to think
intuitively about the diverse physics of these systems, to attempt
to bridge the various communities involved, and to convey the
interest, elegance, and variety of physical phenomena that manifest
themselves on the micrometer and microsecond scales.
