Bifurcation analysis of the coiling patterns of falling liquid threads

This abstract has open access
Summary
We provide a bifurcation analysis of the coiling patterns in liquid threads falling onto a moving surface. In the inertialess regime (low fall heights), the geometric model of coiling predicts four primary coiling patterns. We report on the existence of additional stable patterns that occur at the same range of belt velocity as the meandering pattern, with more intricate patterns and longer periods.
