Dripping from a faucet is studied, where by cutting diagonally the tip breaks the cylindrical symmetry. We measured long dripping time series recorded with a laser-beam apparatus and continuous change in drop position using a high-speed camera. It is found that the added degree of freedom produces a transversal oscillation of a pending drop, which couples with a vertical oscillation induced by the breaking off of the previous drop.

Abstract
Dripping from a faucet is studied, where by cutting diagonally the tip breaks the cylindrical symmetry. We measured long dripping time series recorded with a laser-beam apparatus and continuous change in drop position using a high-speed camera. It is found that the added degree of freedom produces a transversal oscillation of a pending drop, which couples with a vertical oscillation induced by the breaking off of the previous drop.File in questo prodotto:
