{wiki=Rayleigh–Plesset_equation}
The Rayleigh–Plesset equation is a fundamental equation in the field of fluid dynamics, particularly in the study of cavitation—a phenomenon where vapor bubbles form and collapse in a liquid. The equation describes the dynamics of a spherical gas bubble in an incompressible liquid, accounting for the effects of pressure, surface tension, and viscous forces.
