Inertial rise of a meniscus on a vertical cylinder

We consider the inertia-dominated rise of a meniscus around a vertical circular cylinder. Previous experiments and scaling analysis suggest that the height of the meniscus, h<sub>m</sub>, grows with the time following the initiation of rise, <em>t</em>, like h<sub>m<...
