Abstract
A cylindrical liquid bridge supported between two circular-shaped disks in isorotation is considered, with attention paid to the combined effect of an axial gravitational field and an offset between the rotation axis and the axis of the supporting disks (eccentricity) on the stability of the liquid bridge. In previous work a numerical method used to determine the stability limit for different values of eccentricity was validated by comparing with analytical and experimental results at small eccentricity, which gave the same behavior. In this work we use an extension of that algorithm applied to liquid bridges in an axial gravitational field rotating around an eccentric axis to study the combined effect of rotation, eccentricity and gravity.
