Abstract
A numerical study is carried out to track the evolution of toroidal bubbles in the neighourhood of a rigid boundary. The simulation of the toroidal bubble is based on a modified boundary-integral procedure, which involves the introduction of a vortex ring within the bubble. The present method for computing the motion of the toroidal bubbles retains the advantages of the previous models and overcomes their limitations. Calculation and analysis of the pressure distribution on the rigid boundary reveal the potentially damaging effects of collapsing bubbles near a rigid wall.
