Abstract

In this paper, a nonlinear dynamicsanalysis of simulated data was considered to study the timeevolution of an electromagnetically levitated (ELM) flexibledroplet. The flexible droplet is modelled as a system with lumpedmasses, elastic springs, and rigid links. The behavior of thelevitated droplet was investigated. Quantities characterizing timeseries data such as attractor dimension or largest Lyapunovexponent were computed. Calculations were performed for dropletsof aluminum and copper. Thus, its chaotic behavior was analyzed.
