Stability of capillary surfacesAn extensive data set quantifying the stability limits of capillary surfaces for a wide range of fluid properties, container geometry, and input disturbance and orientation does not currently exist. To begin to provide such a data set an experimental apparatus has been designed for which the dynamics and stability of fluid interfaces will be investigated. The apparatus consists primarily of a programmable shaker table and a high speed motion picture and video camera for viewing the fluid surface as drop tower tests will be performed to note the stability of a variety of surface/vessel configurations.
