Three-dimensional, Time-dependent Case

See also: Differentiation under the integral sign in higher dimensions

A Leibniz integral rule for three dimensions is:

 

  

where:

F ( r, t ) is a vector field at the spatial position r at time t
Σ is a moving surface in three-space bounded by the closed curve ∂Σ
d A is a vector element of the surface Σ
d s is a vector element of the curve ∂Σ
v is the velocity of movement of the region Σ
∇• is the vector divergence
× is the vector cross product
The double integrals are surface integrals over the surface Σ, and the line integral is over the bounding curve ∂Σ.

Famous quotes containing the word case:

    “Instructing in cures, therapists always recommend that “each case be individualized.” If this advice is followed, one becomes persuaded that those means recommended in textbooks as the best, means perfectly appropriate for the template case, turn out to be completely unsuitable in individual cases.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
