Abstract: In this paper, a nonlinear dynamics analysis of the experimental data was considered to study the time evolution of an electromagnetically levitated droplet. The main goals of this work are to decide whether the motion of the droplet is deterministic and to investigate its stability. Quantities characterizing time series data such as attractor dimension or largest Lyapunov exponent were computed. The number of degrees of freedom in the system was also assessed. Data acquired from a levitation instrument developed by Space Power Institute at Auburn University was used to perform the analysis.
