Hi,
I got problem with integral transformation. I like to transform the
integral over a flat quadrilateral panel surface (x,y)
Integrate[-z/((x - x0)^2 + (y - y0)^2 + z^2))^(3/2), {x, xmin, xmax),
{y, ymin, ymax}];
to an equivalent line integral along the for panel edges.
This transformation usually is refered to as Stokes integral
transformation rule:
Int[Dot[Curl[{f1, f2, f3}], {n1, n2, n3}], {x, xmin, xmax), {y, ymin,
ymax}] ->
Int[{f1, f2, f3}, {s, smin, smax)]
where F={f1, f2, f3} is a vector field, N={n1, n2, n3} is the normal to
the, say quadrilateral panel surface, and s is the path along the panel
edges.
Does anyone have experience with such a symbolic Stokes transformation
within Mathematica ? Does anyone know an example with Mathematica ?
Many thanks in advance!
Justus
