Description for Cavitation in non-Newtonian Fluids
Hardback. Cavitation in Non-Newtonian Fluids helps researchers 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. Num Pages: 280 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MQW; PHDF; PHVN; PNNP; TGMF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 17. Weight in Grams: 1270.
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 ... Read more

Reviews for Cavitation in non-Newtonian Fluids
From the reviews: “This book addresses general aspects of cavitation and bubble dynamics from the viewpoint of non-Newtonian fluid mechanics, with biomedical and bioengineering applications. … The book is addressed to mechanical, chemical, and biomedical engineers. … The book may also provide a basis for a semester course, and the newcomer will get a good background to which (s)he ...
