abstract = {We consider the problem of a drop rotating rigidly at a
fixed angular velocity. The centrifugal forces are balanced
by the surface tension alone. The volume of the drop is a
prescribed constant. Subject of this work is the numerical
computation of families of such equilibrium shapes and of
their bifurcation behaviour. The bifurcation parameter is
the angular velocity. This problem has been treated
numerically by R.A. Brown and L.E. Scriven in 1980. We
present an algorithm which avoids an explicit global
parametrisation of the drop surface and which does not need
artificial conjectures about the symmetry of the drops. We
use ideas introduced by G. Dziuk for computing evolutionary
surfaces. The results of our numerical experiments extend
the results formerly found by Brown and Scriven and reveal
several new branches of spheroidal drop shapes. Furthermore,
drop shapes of annular type have been computed, branching
from an axisymmetric family of tori which was found by R.
