Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on the search for frequency formulas related to hexagonal drums and equilateral triangles, as the user has already found information for half square triangles and rectangles. There is a specific interest in obtaining these formulas under Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The lack of existing resources on this topic is highlighted, indicating a gap in available research. Participants are encouraged to share any relevant findings or insights. The conversation aims to expand knowledge in the area of equilateral drum frequencies.

Hi Pfs,
I found the formulas for the frequencies of half square triangles, and rectangles.
But nothing on hexagonal drums or equilateral triangles.
(it would nice to get them with Dirichlet and Neumann bordery conditions)
thanks
 
For fun I was trying to use energy considerations to determine the depth to which a solid object will sink in a fluid to reach equilibrium. The first approach that I tried was just to consider the change in potential energy of the block and the fluid as the block is lowered some unknown distance d into the fluid similar to what is shown in the answer to this post. Upon taking the limit as the vessel's cross sectional area approaches infinity I have an extra factor of 2 in the equilibrium...
