5 Dedicated to Nikolai Nikolaevich.Andreev Preface This is the second volume in the series, "Physics and Engineering of High-Intensity Ultrasound,"* and is devoted to the specific characteristics of high-intensity sound fields. The characteristics of such fields constitute the subject of nonlinear acoustics, and the boo.k submitted herewith does not aspire to be an exhaustive treatise in that area. As the reader is aware, nonlinear processes are typified by interrelatedness and the inadmissibility of superposition, so that one should properly investigate the whole complex of phenomena in the large. However, the state of the art of research in this direction is such that we cannot yet pursue that approach and must be content to treat isolated aspects of nonlinear sound fields. This approach, of course, while only approximate, nevertheless has distinct advantages. Our orientation in this area is still, so to speak, "linear," and by the investigation of individual effects we are better able to grasp their physical significance, i.e., they are more comprensible to us. Consequently, the investigation of individual aspects of nonlinear sound fields, which can lead us to qualitative and sometimes quantitative insight, is not only of practical importance, but also fits better into our accustomed "linear way of thinking. As far as the individual aspects are concerned, they have been set apart not only for the extent to which they can be utilized to construct the physical foundations of ultrasonic technology, but also from considerations of their timeliness and the contributions of Soviet scientists, particularly members of the Acoustics Insti- "Reference here is to the series of Russian works, of which sources of High Intensity Ultrasound was the first translated as part of the present series- Publisher. v

Thus, the book does not contain material on the nonlinear interaction of nonlinear absorption of high-intensity acoustic oscillations in solids, etc. Although the main body of the text generally encompasses the results of the author of the given part of the book, the materials of other Soviet and foreign researchers working in the particular field are also incorporated in the interest of clarity and completeness. Part I presents a survey of the results of investigations conducted by the author in the nonlinear absorption of,sound in liquids and gases. Of special interest are the effects on nonlinear absorption in convergent and divergent cylindrical and spherical fronts. Part n is based on results obtained by the author largely during his tenure at the Acoustics Institute. It is given over to the rather complex and beguiling problem of the radiation pressure, an area that is often imprecisely and at times incorrectly handled. Part lli comprises a survey of our knowledge concerning acoustic streaming. Even though the advances made in this area at the Acoustics Institute are relatively limited, the subject is still important enough to warrant its inclusion as an independent part of the book. The last three parts (IV, V, and VI) are concerned with a problem that is exceedingly complex, multifaceted, and often vague, despite the great many papers that have been published on it, namely ultrasonic cavitation. As the reader is aware, cavitation is the most active factor in a large majority of practical applications; moreover, it is extremely important as a unique physical process in itself. There is a certain arbitrariness in the breakdown of the subject into three parts. All three parts are based on investigations conducted at the Acoustics Institute and marked by many conceptually new quantitative and qualitative materials. For example, Part IV represents a probing analysis of the equations describing the motion of an individual bubble and an assessment of the instability effect. The results are compared with the data of highspeed motion pictures of cavitation bubbles. Part V describes the recently discovered effect of the multiplication of cavitation bubbles, a procedure developed for determining the acoustic energy losses in the formation of cavitation bubbles, and an investigation of the very interesting effects of the static pressure on the be-

Part VI is devoted to the vital, though so far, comparatively neglected problem of the behavior of the cavitation zone in general. The work in this area is currently in the state of development, but the results to date already permit a clear conceptualization of the phenomena evolving in a cavitation zone and occassionally certain inferences useful for practical applications. The pioneer in the formulation and development of problems in nonlinear acoustics in the large is Academician N. N. Andreev, on whose initiative some of the earliest investigations in this area were undertaken. The editor is grateful to V. S. Grigor 'ev and G. A. Ostroumov, who assumed the task of reviewing the manuscript of the book and offered many valuable comments. Also deserving acknowledgment is the considerable service rendered by V. A. Akulichev in preparing the manuscript for publication. L. D. Rozenberg
