ME 564 Microgravity & Capillary Fluid Mechanics II

Advanced principles of capillary phenomena and applied capillary fluidics are pursued by empirical, theoretical, and numerical methods. Novel/publishable research projects are undertaken as teams or as individuals that exploit the unique experimental contributions of a 'low-gravity' drop tower to produce large length scale phenomena rarely observed in a terrestrial-gravity environment. Special applications are made to engineering systems aboard spacecraft.
