发明名称 Localised energy concentration
摘要 A method of producing a localized concentration of energy comprises creating at least one shockwave (10) propagating through a non-gaseous medium (8) so as to be incident upon a pocket of gas (2) within the medium (8). The pocket of gas (2) is attached to a surface (6) comprising a depression (4) shaped so as partially to receive the gas pocket (2). An apparatus for producing a localized concentration of energy comprises a non-gaseous medium (8) having therein a pocket of gas (2). The pocket of gas (2) is attached to a surface (6) comprising a depression (4) shaped so as partially to receive the gas pocket (2). The apparatus further comprises means for creating at least one shockwave (10) propagating through the medium (8) so as to be incident upon the pocket of gas (2).

主权项 1. A method of producing a localised concentration of energy comprising using an external device to apply one or more shockwaves to a static volume of non-gaseous medium to create at least one shockwave propagating through the non-gaseous medium so as to be incident upon a pocket of gas within the medium, wherein the pocket of gas is attached to a surface comprising a depression, wherein the pocket of gas has a volume greater than or equal to a volume of the depression and the depression is shaped so as partially to receive the pocket of gas.
