Abstract: Many studies have shown that a dripping faucet may exhibit chaotic
behavior; simulations also work very well in reproducing such dynamics. In this
study two different models are numerically solved and the results appear to be
consistent with previous ones, but making some finer analyses shows regular
behavior with great periods, which makes the results to look chaotic.
