Vector Integral Theorems

Let y be a volume bounded by a closed surface S, and let f be a continuously differentiable vector field in V and S. If ds is an outward normal vector to the differential area, then we have the following equations as per various useful theorems. 

Stokes s theorem Let 5 be a surface bounded by a closed curve C and dr be the tangent vector. Then 

Reynolds s transport theorem Let/be a continuous function of space and time defined throughout the volume V(t) bounded by a closed surface S(t) moving with velocity v. Then

Let V be a region in space bounded by a closed surface S (of Lyapunov-type [24, 50]), and f (x) be a vector field acting on this region. A Lyapunov-type surface is one that is smooth. The divergence (Gauss) theorem establishes that the total flux of the vector field across the closed surface must be equal to the volume integral of the divergence of the vector (see Theorem 10.1.1). 

To obtain a general integral representation for solutions of the creeping-flow equations, it is necessary first to derive a general integral theorem reminiscent of the Green s theorem from vector calculus. 

In classical mechanics and electrod)mamics the integral theorems of Gauss and Stokes may often be employed beneficially. Given a sufficiently smooth (i.e., differentiable) and well-behaved vector field A, Gauss theorem may be expressed in its most elementary form as...

Using the integral theorems (E.l), (E.2) and (E.5) for vectors and tensors [25, 105], and changing the integrals from integrating over dcidcj into dCidCj, the novel collisional pressure tensor yields (App E.2.1) ...

The other way to calculate the volume inside the triangulated surface is to use the Ostrogradski-Gauss theorem. It relates the surface integral from a vector field j to a volume integral from its divergence ... 

The reason why the relationship in Equation 7.41 is called the differential virial theorem is because if we take the dot product of both sides with vector r, multiply both sides by pir), and then integrate over the entire volume, it gives... 

The divergence of the flux vector is therefore the net rate of accumulation of the quantity which is transported in and out of the volume element dK This can be integrated over an arbitrary volume Cl limited by the surface I to give the divergence theorem of Gauss... 

We shall prove the integrability of / using the Newlander-Nirenberg theorem. (Replacing the argument with J and id, we find J and K are integrable.) If v and w are complex-valued vector field on X, we have... 

By applying a variant of the extremely powerful convolution theorem stated above, computing the overlap integral of one scalar field (e.g., an electron density), translated by t relative to another scalar field for all possible translations t, simplifies to computing the product of the two Fourier-transformed scalar fields. Furthermore, if periodic boundary conditions can be imposed (artificially), the computation simplifies further to the evaluation of these products at only a discrete set of integral points (Laue vectors) in Fourier space. 

The second term is a divergence, so that its integral becomes, by the divergence theorem, a surface integral over the boundary of "K of an integrand containing as a factor the normal component of the material flux vector pwa and this vanishes, according to our boundary conditions. 

Assume that there is a volume V that is enclosed by a surface A whose orientation is described by a normal outward-pointing unit vector n. The Gauss divergence theorem, which is used to relate surface integrals to volume integrals, is stated as... 

Barrett [50] has interestingly reviewed and compared the properties of the Abelian and non-Abelian Stokes theorems, a review and comparison that makes it clear that the Abelian and non-Abelian Stokes theorems must not be confused [83,95]. The Abelian, or original, Stokes theorem states that if A(x) is a vector field, S is an open, orientable surface, C is the closed curve bounding S, dl is a line element of C, n is the normal to S, and C is traversed in a right-handed (positive direction) relative to n, then the line integral of A is equal to the surface integral over 5 of V x A-n ... 

In the non-Abelian Stokes theorem (482), on the other hand, the boundary conditions are defined because the phase factor is path-dependent, that is, depends on the covariant derivative [50]. On the U(l) level [50], the original Stokes theorem is a mathematical relation between a vector field and its curl. In 0(3) or SU(2) invariant electromagnetism, the non-Abelian Stokes theorem gives the phase change due to a rotation in the internal space. This phase change appears as the integrals...
