Jenni, I made some similar animations for draining tanks, which you can see here: http://www.math.armstrong.edu/faculty/hollis/DEmovies I know you'd like to do it yourself, so I'll just say that the Mathematica tools you need are WireFrame, Sphere, SurfaceOfRevolution, TranslateShape, and Helix. (Helix can give you the top surface of the water.) Good luck... :-) ---- Selwyn Hollis On Tuesday, January 14, 2003, at 06:10 AM, jmbjorkl at mappi.helsinki.fi wrote: > Hi! > > I'm trying to make an animation of an hollow sphere which is filling up > with water (so it has to be colored blue :).
