Abstract

An attempt was made to compute the free surface deformation due to the impact of a water droplet. The Cauchy Poisson, i.e. the initial value problem, was solved with the kinematic and dynamic free surface boundary conditions linearized. The zero order Hankel transformation and Laplace transform were applied to the related equations. The initial condition for the free surface profile was derived from a captured video image. The effect of the surface tension was not significant with the water mass used in this investigation. The computed and observed free surface deformations were compared.
