A practical consequence of the breakup of a liquid jet by thepinch-off singularity is the redistribution of volume. To the extentthat volume concentrates into drops in the streamwise direction,pinch-off can lead to coarsening. The fundamental redistribution ofvolume by surface tension can be understood in the absence ofpinch-off, however. We pos...
