Abstract

An earlier paper discussed the case of a flexible but inextensible membrane filled to capacity with incompressible fluid. It was found that the resulting shape satisfies a set of three simultaneous partial differential equations. This article gives a more general derivation of these equations and shows their form in an interesting special case.
