Suppressing chaotic oscillations of a spherical cavitation bubble through applying a periodic perturbation.

Nonlinear dynamics of a spherical cavitation bubble was studied. A method based on applying a periodic perturbation to suppress chaotic oscillations is introduced. The relation between this method and dual frequency ultrasonic irradiation is correlated to prove its applicability in applications involving cavitation phenomena. Results indicated its strong impact on reducing the chaotic oscillations to regular ones. The governing parameters are the secondary frequency value and the phase difference between the secondary frequency and the fundamental one. In the end, the possible application of this method in high intensity focused ultrasound tumor ablation as an instance, is discussed accounting for both free bubbles and microbubbles.
