Modelling ideas
• The bottle will fall when the system’s mass centre passes the tipping point.
• First, the problem was solved for totally full or totally empty cylindrical bottle, because it is easy to solve analytically.
• Only 2-dimensional case was considered because of the radial symmetry.
Problem restrictions
• Assumptions made:– Bottle density is homogeneous– Liquid density is homogeneous– Bottle has to be radial symmetric– Tilting point is fixed during inclination
Creating bottle
• For creating the bottle, coordinates of one edge are given
• Bottle mass is measured• Next You will see the bottles we used!
Calculating the bottle mass centre
• Take the mass centre of each line between given coordinates
• Length of the line• Mass centre of system of lines is

Calculating the mass centre of liquidMesh
• Calculate a triangular mesh• Find the water level by minimizing the V-V(h)• Use coarse grid, but refine in the water level• Calculate the mass centre of every triangle
Will the bottle fall?
• Add mass centres of the whole system• Has the mass centre passed the tipping point?
• Picture of a bottle on the edge of falling
