I am a undergraduate student now and I have joined in a project in my college. I was assigned a job to simulate the deformation of an elastic membrane given the boundary and the exerted forces on it. It seems to be a homework problem and quite fundamental, but I really have spent much time on it...

Thank you for your information on typing formulas. I think maybe the thermal fluctuation should be taken into consideration and this is a problem assigned in my statistical mechanics class. I have read the solution in Landau's Statistical Physics (P115). He just simply plugged the centrifugal...

The problem asks me to find the density of gas in a cylinder of radius R and length l rotating about its axis with angular velocity ω, there being a total of N molecules in the cylinder. What I have done is shown as following I choose to look this scenario in a static frame with the cylinder...
