Abstract

In this work we present some results from computer simulations of dynamical aspects of drop formation in a leaky faucet. Our results, which agree very well with the experiments, suggest that only a few elements, at the microscopic level, would be necessary to describe the most important features of this system. We were able to set all parameters of the model in terms of real ones. This is an additional advantage with respect to previous theoretical works.
