- This fundamental-research investigation constitutes the first-ever visualisation using synchrotron radiation of the morphology and dynamics of highly transient cavitating structures arising in micro-orifices. Research was performed in the frame of a European Commission grant (no. 642536) on fundamental mechanisms contributing to cavitation-induced erosion and paves the road for the investigation of complex multiphase flows in microfluidic devices using high-energy X-rays. It has led to the establishment of a successful collaboration between City and Argonne National Laboratory, leading to four publications in high-impact journals since 2017 and two invited presentations in international workshops
