Cavitation

A treatment of cavitation, a phenomenon which extends across many fields. It emphasizes the diverse situations in which cavitation occurs and its practical implications, covering basic hydrodynamical and acoustical theory, as well as experimental findings in physics, chemistry and biology.

First published by McGraw-Hill in 1989, this book provides a unified treatment of cavitation, a phenomenon which extends across the boundaries of many fields. The approach is wide-ranging and the aim is to give due consideration to the many aspects of cavitation in proportion to their importance. Particular attention is paid to the diverse situations in which cavitation occurs and to its practical applications.
