We present the analysis of two attractor sequences from a dripping faucet experiment, which were taken in different regions of the control parameter (dripping rate). We used symbolic dynamics analysis to enlighten the similarities between some experimental attractors and Hénon-like attractors....

We have used topological ε-machine reconstruction to calculate statistical complexity associated to period five orbits in the dripping faucet experiment. Basic structures related to the periodic movement and to peripheral tracks in the corresponding directed graphs were identified.
