The present paper numerically shows stability maps( divided into four zones),in which gas bubbles maintain the linearly spherical oscillation without nonlinear disturbance of rectified diffusions within a large range of bubble radius. The critical pressures of spherical and diffusional oscillations are two decisive indexes determining the stability status. Specifically,the stability boundaries and influential factors( including acoustic parameters and gas concentration in liquids) were discussed and analyzed. The results show that the variations of gas concentration and acoustic parameters dramatically changed the stable status of the gas bubbles. The gas bubble maintained stable status when external parameters and gas concentration were set between the two critical values properly. The cases of high-frequency and low-frequency limits were also introduced at the end of the whole paper.展开更多
