Amador et al., [1] stated that the zone near the inception point of air entrainment will be critical in terms of the risk of cavitation damage. They studied characterizing the developing flow region and examined the pressure fluctuation on the steps induced by the skimming flow.

Semicrystalline polymers are known to exhibit cavitation damage when stretched above their glass transition temperature [1, 2], Such a phenomenon has been largely reported until recently for instance in polyethylene (PE) [3-5], polyoxymethylene (POM) [6, 7], polyamide 11 (PA 11) [8], polypropylene (PP) [9, 10] or polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) [11-13],
