Fluid dynamics: Lights, camera, drip

Sarah Tomlin

Nature, 1999, vol. 400, issue 6746, 715-715

Abstract: Watching a dripping tap might not be the most productive way of passing the time. But a snapshot of a fluid droplet just before it breaks off reveals much about the shape of the drop. The mathematics behind this problem may turn out to be similar to theories describing the gravitational collapse that leads to a black hole.
