A close up view of the cavitation structure on an oscillating hydrofoil.
Advised by intrepid adventurer Professor C. E. Brennen, my research at the California Institute of Technology was in the area of cavitation. Specifically, I began my work at Caltech investigating the mechanisms responsible for and the physical structures present within cloud cavitation on an oscillating hydrofoil. Later, I focused on experiments investigating cavitation on propellers. The work was funded by the Office of Naval Research.

a very basic introduction to cavitation.
