    摘要: A method of producing a localised concentration of energy comprises creating at least one shockwave (10) propagating through a non-gaseous medium (8) so as to be incident upon a pocket of gas (2) within the medium (8). The pocket of gas (2) is attached to a non-planar surface (6) shaped to concentrate the intensity of the shockwave which is incident upon (10) the gas pocket (2). An apparatus for producing a localised concentration of energy comprises a non-gaseous medium (8) having therein a pocket of gas (2). The pocket of gas (2) is attached to a surface (6) shaped to concentrate the intensity of the shockwave (10) which is incident upon the gas pocket (2). The apparatus further comprises means for creating at least one shockwave (10) propagating through the medium (8) so as to be incident upon the pocket of gas (2).
