DESCRIPTION:Davide Bernardo Preso (EPFL)\nAbstract:\nDespite more than a 
 century of research\, many aspects of cavitation remain poorly understood\
 , especially with regards to the bubble contents. The small-scale nature o
 f cavitation in both time and space hinders direct measurements\, setting 
 a limit for a complete understanding of the phenomenon. In this talk\, I w
 ill present results from a combination of analytical model and experimenta
 l techniques\, using high-speed visualizations\, dynamic pressure measurem
 ents\, and fast photodetection\, which shed lights on the prediction of th
 e gaseous phase composition of cavitation bubbles. Also\, I will present f
 indings that help understanding how condensable vapours and incondensable 
 gases behave within a collapsing bubble.\n\nBiography:\nDavide Bernardo Pr
 eso is a MSCA Ph.D. candidate in Mechanics at the Cavitation Research Gro
 up\, EPFL\, supervised by Dr. Mohamed Farhat. He received his BSc and MSc 
 degrees in Chemical Engineering from University of Bologna (Italy). Before
  joining EPFL\, he was Research Assistant at ETH Zurich. His research inte
 rests include gas effects on cavitation dynamics\, non-equilibrium phase t
 ransition in multiphase flow\, and cavitation erosion-corrosion of metals.
  He collaborates with Sorbonne University (France) and Tohoku University 
 (Japan)\, where he was visiting researcher.
