Force measurements on rising bubbles

The dynamics of millimeter sized air bubbles rising through still water are investigated using precise ultrasound velocity measurements combined with high speed video. From measurements of speed and three dimensional tra jectories we deduce the forces on the bubble which give rise to planar zigzag and spiraling motion.
