ENGR 233: Lecture 16 Surface and flux integrals Dr. Ali Nazemi Department of Building, Civil and Environmental Engineering Tuesday 16th March 2021 Concordia University Montreal, Quebec Let’s review 2 Let’s review 3 Let’s review 4 Why do we need to know about surface integrals? • Surface integrals can be seen analogous to line integrals over arc lengths and extends this concept into two dimensions. • Applications include those mentioned for double integrals, most importantly the area, volume and mass of a curved surface as well as fluid and heat fluxes. ds = the length of a curve C dS S = double integral = the area of a surface S B B A A ds = [ f ' ]2 + [ g ' ]2 dt dS = ??? S 5 From double integrals to surface integrals • The double integral is over a flat surface R. • Now the region moves out of the plane and it becomes a curved surface S, i.e., part of a sphere, cylinder, cone, etc. • We want to compute area and flux but the main challenge lays in expressing dS • When the surface has only one z for each (x, y), it is the graph of a function z(x, y). 6 A simple recipe for solving surface integrals • To integrate a function G(x,y,z) involving z(x,y) = f(x,y) over a curved surface S I (i.e., mass, volume...) = G ( x, y, z )dS S ( = G[ x, y, f ( x, y )] 1 + z R ) + z dA x y 2 R is area down (projection of S) in the xy plane Then calculate double integral using previous2double integral 2 techniques surface area = dS = 1 + z + z dA x y R R Note: Similar projection with dA expression = dxdy orfordA = rdrdon other planes ( 2 ) 7 From surface integrals to flux integrals • Consider a fluid with field velocity F, the total volume of the fluid passing through a surface S is called the Flux of F through S • For a given vector field F, we define Flux through surface= S F • nˆ dS where n, a unit normal vector, defines the orientation of the surface S defined by g(x,y,z)=0 and is given by the unit normal vector g(x,y,z)=0 g nˆ = | g | 8 Resources • Read Section 9.13 and go through exercises • This presentation is available through the moodle • 4 additional lecture notes are placed in the moodle. All have Q&As with complete solutions. Note that in this lecture we only discussed situations in which surface is explicitly represented by x and y. Sup materials also discuss situations in which x, y and z are represented parametrically with respect to two independent variables u and v. • Check out the Oregon State Lecture Notes for surface integrals: http://math.oregonstate.edu/home/programs/undergrad/CalculusQuestStud yGuides/vcalc/surface/surface.html 9
