ENGI 4430 Surface Integrals Page 9.01 9. Surface Integrals - Projection Method Surfaces in 3 In 3 a surface can be represented by a vector parametric equation r x u, v ˆi y u, v ˆj z u, v k ˆ where u, v are parameters. Example 9.01 The unit sphere, centre O, can be represented by sin cos, sin sin 0 and 0 2 r cos If every vertical line (parallel to the z-axis) in 3 meets the surface no more than once, then the surface can also be parameterized as x r x, y y or as z f x, y f x, y Example 9.02 z x y x y x y 2 2 2 2 4,, 4 is a A simple surface does not cross itself. If the following condition is true: r u, v r u, v u, v u, v for all pairs of points in the domain} { 1 1 2 2 1 1 2 2 then the surface is simple. The converse of this statement is not true. This condition is sufficient, but it is not necessary for a surface to be simple. The condition may fail on a simple surface at coordinate singularities. For example, one of the angular parameters of the polar coordinate systems is undefined everywhere on the z-axis, so that spherical polar (2, 0, 0) and (2, 0, ) both represent the same Cartesian point (0, 0, 2). Yet a sphere remains simple at its z-intercepts.
ENGI 4430 Surface Integrals Page 9.02 Tangent and Normal Vectors to Surfaces A surface S is represented by uv, u, v r 0 0. Hold parameter v constant at 0 r. Examine the neighbourhood of a point P 0 at v (its value at P 0 ) and allow the other parameter u to vary. This generates a slice through the two-dimensional surface, namely a one-dimensional curve C containing P 0 and represented by a vector parametric equation uv, o u r r with only one freely-varying parameter (u). If, instead, u is held constant at u 0 and v is allowed to vary, we obtain a different slice containing 0 P, the curve C : u, v v r. On each curve a unique tangent vector can be defined. o At all points along C u, a tangent vector is defined by Tu r uv, o. u [Note that this is not necessarily a unit tangent vector.] At 0 T u u v u v Po u r u r. P the tangent vector becomes, o, o Similarly, along the other curve C v, the tangent vector at P o is Tv r uo, vo. Po v If the two tangent vectors are not parallel and neither of these tangent vectors is the zero vector, then they define the orientation of tangent plane to the surface at P 0. Po

ENGI 4430 Surface Integrals Page 9.04 If the normal vector N is continuous and non-zero over all of the surface S, then the surface is said to be smooth. Example 9.03 A sphere is smooth. A cube is A cone is Surface Integrals (Projection Method) This method is suitable mostly for surfaces which can be expressed easily in the Cartesian form z = f (x, y). The plane region D is the projection (or shadow) of the surface plane (usually the xy-plane) in a 1:1 manner. S : f r c onto a The plane containing D has a constant unit normal ˆn. N is any non-zero normal vector to the surface S.
