Abstract

We develop the integral calculus. In this chapter we introduce curvilinear and surface integrals and obtain some fundamental and widely used integral formulas generalizing the classical Newton–Leibniz formula.

Notes

  1. 1.

    G.P. Joule (1818–1889) – British physicist who discovered the law of thermal action of a current and also determined, independently of Mayer, the mechanical equivalent of heat.

  2. 2.

    J.P. Mayer (1814–1878) – German scholar, a physician by training; he stated the law of conservation and transformation of energy and found the mechanical equivalent of heat.

  3. 3.

    N.L.S. Carnot (1796–1832) – French engineer, one of the founders of thermodynamics.

  4. 4.

    M. Faraday (1791–1867) – outstanding British physicist, creator of the concept of an electromagnetic field.

  5. 5.

    A.M. Ampère (1775–1836) – French physicist and mathematician, one of the founders of modern electrodynamics.

  6. 6.

    Biot (1774–1862), Savart (1791–1841) – French physicists.

  7. 7.

    G. Green (1793–1841) – British mathematician and mathematical physicist. Newton’s grave in Westminster Abbey is framed by five smaller gravestones with brilliant names: Faraday, Thomson (Lord Kelvin), Green, Maxwell, and Dirac.

  8. 8.

    L.E.J. Brouwer (1881–1966) – well-known Dutch mathematician. A number of fundamental theorems of topology are associated with his name, as well as an analysis of the foundations of mathematics that leads to the philosophico-mathematical concepts called intuitionism.

  9. 9.

    The classical Stokes theorem (13.34) is meant.

  10. 10.

    Élie Cartan (1869–1951) – outstanding French geometer.
