Abstract
A qualitative investigation into the viscoelastic-surface properties o f pendant drops has been conducted using a new instrumental technique, the fibre drop analyser (FDA), by means of measurement of the damped vibrations in mechanically excited pendant drop for a series of pure l iquids. The study reveals a range of processes in the damped vibration s of pendant drops and could open up a new approach to measurement of physical properties for the micro-volume analysis of liquid properties .
