Abstract
Vibration transfer characteristics through a liquid meniscus bridge were investigated experimentally using the meniscus response apparatus. Effects of the excitation amplitude and the contact angle on the vibration transfer characteristics were clarified. Slip flow model considering slip flow at solid-liquid interface was proposed and the theoretical response was compared with the experimental results. Slip length is derived by the least squares fitting. The large contact angle was obtained by applying oil repellent to a glass plate. It was found that the excitation amplitude affected the vibration transfer characteristics and the contact angle amazingly affected them.
