Lack of control of the environment is often pinpointed as a cause of frustration and stress in confined animals. When the animal cannot control things, such as the feeding time or the lighting program, and when it cannot escape from things it finds unpleasant, it often behaves in a manner that indicates frustration.
Cavitation can also cause excessive pump vibration, which could damage pump bearings, wearing rings, and seals. A small number of centrifugal pumps are designed to operate under conditions where cavitation is unavoidable.
Non-inertial cavitation is the process in which small bubbles in a liquid are forced to oscillate in the presence of an acoustic field, when the intensity of the acoustic field is insufficient to cause total bubble collapse.
