Abstract

A liquid bridge is a mass of liquid held by surface tension between two or more solid supports. In this paper, theoretical and experimental investigations are conducted to examine the stability of: nonaxisymmetric bridge contained between equal and unequal radii disks as a function of Bond and Weber number with emphasis on the transition from unstable axisymmetric to stable nonaxisymmetric shapes; and nonaxisymmetric bridges between unequal disks for various orientations of the gravity vector. Results useful for the quantitative assessment of g-jitter effects on these experiments are presented.
