Multiple integrals


Double integral –

Before studying about multiple integrals, first let’s go through the definition of definition of definite integrals for function of single variable.

As we know, the integral

Where is belongs to the limit a ≤ x ≤ b

This integral can be written as follows-

Now suppose we have a function f(x , y) of two variables x and y in two dimensional finite region R in xy-plane.

Then the double integration over region R can  be evaluated by two successive integration

 

Evaluation of double integrals-

If A is described as 

Then,

Let do some examples to understand more about double integration-

 

Example-1: Evaluate , where dA is the small area in xy-plane.

 

Sol.     Let ,     I = 

=

=    84 sq. Unit.

Which is the required area.

 

Example-2:  Evaluate

 

Sol. Let us suppose the integral is I,

I =

Put c = 1 – x in I, we get

I =

Suppose , y = ct

Then dy = c

Now we get,

I =

I =

I =

I =

I  =

As we know that by beta function,

Which gives,

Now put the value of c, we get

 

Example-3:  Evaluate the following double integral,

 

Sol.  Let ,

I = 

On solving the integral, we get

Example-4: Evaluate-

Where R is the quadrant of the circle .

Sol.

Suppose the region of integration is the first quadrant of the circle OAB.

(

First we will integrate w.r.t. x then w.r.t. y-

The limits for y are 0 and and limits for x are 0 to a.

We get-

Evaluation of double integrals in polar coordinates-

Example: Evaluate-

Sol.

Here we have-

Limits of y-

It represents the circle with centre (1, 0) and radius 1.

Lower limit of y is 0.

Region of integration is upper half circle.

Let convert the equation (1) into polar coordinates by putting-

X =  rcosθ and y =  r cosθ

Limits of r are 0 to

Limits of are 0 to π/2

 

Example: Evaluate-

By changing into polar coordinates.

Sol.

We have

The limits of x and y are 0 to

Hence the region of integration is in the first quadrant,

The region is covered by the radius strip from r = 0 to r = ∞ and it starts from θ = 0 to θ = π/2

Hence the integral becomes-

 


Example-1 : Change the order of integration for the integral  and evaluate the same with reversed order of integration.             

Soln. :  

Given,  

I = …(1)

24In the given integration, limits are

y=, y = 2a – x and x = 0,   x = a

The region bounded by x2 = ay, x + y = 2a    Fig.6.5

 

And x = 0, x = a is as shown in Fig. 6.5

Here we have to change order of Integration. Given the strip is vertical.

Now take horizontal strip SR.

To take total region, divide region into two parts by taking line y = a.  

1st Region:

Along strip, y constant and x varies from x = 0 to x = 2a – y. Slide strip IIelto  x-axis therefore y varies from y = a to y = 2a.

     I1 =dyxy dx …(2)

2nd Region:

Along strip, y constant and x varies from x = 0 to x = . Slide strip IIel to x-axis therefore x-varies from y = 0 to y = a.

   I2 =dyxy dx    …(3)

From Equation (1), (2) and (3),

   =  dyxy dx + dyxy dx

= +  y dy

=dy  + (ay) dy =  y (4a2 – 4ay + y2) dy +  ay2dy

=  (4a2 y – 4ay2 + y3) dy +   y2dy

= 

= +

=            a4

 

Example-2 : Evaluate

22I =

Soln. :  

Given : I =     …(1)

In the given integration, limits are

x = 0, x = a,   y = 0,   y =

The bounded region is as shown in Fig. **.

In the given, strip is vertical. Now take horizontal strip SR. Along strip y constant and x varies from x = 0 to

x = . Slide strip IIel to X-axis therefore y varies from y = 0 to y = a.

22   I=dy

=

 

Put  a2 – y2 = b2

I=

=

= dy = dy

= 

=

= 

=  [ a = a loge]

  I = dy

 

Example-3 : Express as single integral and evaluate dy dx + dy dx.

Soln: 

39Given:

I  =  dy dx + dy dx 

 

I  =  I1 + I2

The limits of region of integration I1 are
x = – ; x =  and y = 0, y = 1 and I2 are x = – 1,
x = 1 and y = 1, y = 3.

The region of integration are as shown in Fig. 6.7

To consider the complete region take a vertical strip SR along the strip y varies from y = x2 to
y = 3 and x varies from x = –1 to x = 1. Fig. 6.7

I  =
