Pressure of Membrane between Walls

Abstract

For a single membrane of stiffness kappa fluctuating between two planar walls of distance d, we calculate analytically the proportionality constant in the pressure law p proportional to T^2/kappa^2 d^3, in very good agreement with results from Monte Carlo simulations.Comment: Author Information under http://www.physik.fu-berlin.de/~kleinert/institution.html .
