In mathematics (particularly multivariable calculus), a volume integral (∭) is an integral over a 3-dimensional domain; that is, it is a special case of multiple integrals. Volume integrals are especially important in physics for many applications, for example, to calculate flux densities, or to calculate mass from a corresponding density ...
A line integral (sometimes called a path integral) is an integral where the function to be integrated is evaluated along a curve. [42] Various different line integrals are in use. In the case of a closed curve it is also called a contour integral. The function to be integrated may be a scalar field or a vector field.
In three-dimensional geometry, a facet of a polyhedron is any polygon whose corners are vertices of the polyhedron, and is not a face. [1] [2] To facet a polyhedron is to find and join such facets to form the faces of a new polyhedron; this is the reciprocal process to stellation and may also be applied to higher-dimensional polytopes. [3]
In elementary geometry, a face is a polygon [note 1] on the boundary of a polyhedron. [3] [4] Other names for a polygonal face include polyhedron side and Euclidean plane tile. For example, any of the six squares that bound a cube is a face of the cube. Sometimes "face" is also used to refer to the 2-dimensional features of a 4-polytope.
If f(x) is a smooth function integrated over a small number of dimensions, and the domain of integration is bounded, there are many methods for approximating the integral to the desired precision. Numerical integration has roots in the geometrical problem of finding a square with the same area as a given plane figure ( quadrature or squaring ...
Various classification methods for integral equations exist. A few standard classifications include distinctions between linear and nonlinear; homogeneous and inhomogeneous; Fredholm and Volterra; first order, second order, and third order; and singular and regular integral equations. [1]
The online video game platform and game creation system Roblox has numerous games (officially referred to as "experiences") [1] [2] created by users of its creation tool, Roblox Studio. Due to Roblox ' s popularity, various games created on the site have grown in popularity, with some games having millions of monthly active players and 5,000 ...
In commutative algebra, an element b of a commutative ring B is said to be integral over a subring A of B if b is a root of some monic polynomial over A. [1]If A, B are fields, then the notions of "integral over" and of an "integral extension" are precisely "algebraic over" and "algebraic extensions" in field theory (since the root of any polynomial is the root of a monic polynomial).
