When subjected to certain harmonic oscillations, the gas bubble in a partially liquid-filled, closed, vertical cylinder will break up. Under certain conditions, some of the gas will migrate to the bottom due to Bjerknes forces. At sufficiently large amplitudes, the bubble will break up into gas bubbles at the top and bottom ends of the cylinder. High-speed imaging captured the dynamics of bubble breakup and gas migration. Several parameters were investigated: oscillation frequency, oscillation acceleration, gas volume fraction, and liquid viscosity.
