Even though the list of references associated with this review is rather extensive, in no way does it exhaust the vast literature dedicated to the study of cavitation. The intent was to summarize (i) advances in analytical and numerical modelling, (ii) draw attention to the thermodynamic aspects of cavitation, and (iii) do so while reflecting on physical or experimental observations.
