Effect of G-Jitter on Liquid Bridge Vibrations with & without Marangoni Convection

Effects of external vibrations (called g-jitter) on Marangoni convection in a liquid bridge were investigated on the International Space Station (ISS) and in ground-based experiments. In ISS, most dominant g-jitter frequency was noted to be ~110 Hz. ISS experiments suggested that the surface vibrati...
