contents The non-linear dynamics of driven oscillations in the size of a spherical bubble are mapped to the dynamics of a Newtonian particle in a potential within the incompressible liquid regime. The compressible liquid regime, which is important during the bubble's sonic collapse, is approached adiabatically. This new framework naturally distinguishes between the two time scales involved in the non-linear oscillations of a bubble. It also explains the experimentally observed sharp rebound of the bubble upon collapse. Guided by this new vantage point, we develop analytical approximations for several key aspects of bubble motion. First, we formulate a tensile strength law that integrates the bubble's ideal gas behavior with a general polytropic index. Next, we establish a straightforward physical criterion for Bjerknes force reversal, governed by the driving pressure, ambient pressure and tensile strength. Finally, we derive an acoustic energy dissipation formula for the bubble's sonic collapse, dependent solely on the bubble's collapse radii and velocity.
