Abstract
For a long partially-filled membrane container on an incline, the analytic solution of the similarity shape is studied. The nonlinear equation is solved and its solution is expressed as elliptic integrals, which include an unknown at the point of inflection. The point of inflection is determined by using the boundary condition at the upper separating point. Some characteristic values of the universal shape are evaluated, as the functions of inclination angle and shapes are illustrated for some cases.
