Abstract
Five dimensional geodesic equation is used to study the gravitational force acted on a test particle in the bulk of the Randall-Sundrum two-brane model.This force could be interpreted as the gravitational attraction from matters on the two branes and may cause the model to be unstable. By analogy with star models in astrophysics, a fluid RS model is proposed in which the bulk is filled with a fluid and this fluid has an anisotropic pressure to balance the gravity from the two branes. Thus a class of exact bulk solutions is obtained which shows that any 4D Einstein solution with a perfect fluid source can be embedded in $y=$ constant hypersurfaces in the bulk to form an equilibrium state of the brane model. By requiring a 4D effective curvature to have a minimum, the compactification size of the extra dimension is discussed.
