Each rat underwent a single BBB opening session (i.e., eight sessions in total) and was euthanized at the end of the experiment for post-mortem safety assessment. Cavitation signal processing For all experiments, PCD was performed during ultrasound exposure for real-time monitoring of microbubble...
Figure 1. Schematic sketch of the experimental set-up for the experiment of cavitation dynamics behind a circular cylinder. In this investigation, we visualized cavitation dynamics around the circular cylinder and measured the hydrodynamics forces on the cylinder. The circular cylinder has a diameter...
The one-parameter model (16) is a simplified version of the three-parameter empirical model obtained in a laboratory experiment in which metal specimens were exposed to a cavitating jet, their weight loss was measured in several instants, and a high-frequency accelerometer attached to the specimen...
First, high-purity N2 is used to clean the oxygen (O2) in the experiment. The experiment started when the O2 content dropped to 0.00%. Next, the pH meter and flue gas analyzer record the data regularly, with the counting interval uniformly set to 5 s. When valve 5 is opened, the sim...

The inlet conditions are shown in Table 1, which is the same as in the Lettieri experiment [24]. Due to the strong real-gas effect near the critical point, the real-gas properties table (RGP table) was used in the simulation. The thermophysical properties of CO2 are provided in the ...
The images taken had a width of 1344 pixels and a height of 1024 pixels; in this experiment, 700 pixels equated to 100 µm. The area in pixels of all particles was determined by using the set-scale function in ImageJ, using the dimensions of the picture with a known distance on ...
