Cavitation break up of ... snails ????
(OP)
This is an interesting video about how a manta shrimp opens up snails for feeding. It gives them an over 200 lb force whack with a claw. Not bad strength for a tiny little shrimp eh? While measuring the force belted out by the shrimp, two impacts were observed. The second approximately equalling the same incredible force of the original blow. What was responsible for the second impact?
20,000 frames per second reveals that cavitation damage is apparently being employed by the shrimp in obtaining its meal.
This is a bit long (11 m 30 s) getting to the conclusion, but worth the effort, if you're interested in the damage mechanics of cavitation.

Do we need self-molting impellers?

She does manage to connect with her audience quite well.
Ya. Regular TV in Spain is total crap.

It was pretty interesting to *see* the formation and the collapse of the bubble and I totally didn't know that light was given off. It was drama trying to get a data card for 1 kHz several years back, hard to believe 'they' can capture low light video at 20000 frames/sec.

Take a look at supercavitation wikipedia to see what is being done with this type of phenomenon.
