Section 15.3 Double Integrals over General Regions Ruipeng Shen April 7 1 Basic Definition Let us consider how to integrate a function not just over rectangles but also over regions of more general shape, as illustrated in left part of figure 1. We suppose that D is a bounded region, which means that D can be enclosed in a rectangular region R as shown in the right part of the figure. Thus we can define a new function F with domain R by f (x, y), if (x, y) ∈ D; F (x, y) = . (1) 0, if (x, y) ∈ R \ D z z z=f(x,y) z=F(x,y) y y D x R x Figure 1: Double integral over a general region If F is integrable over R, then we define the double integral of f over D by ZZ ZZ f (x, y) dA = F (x, y) dA. D R In the case where f (x, y) ≥ 0, we can still interpret that lies above D and under the surface z = f (x, y). 1 RR D f (x, y) dA as the volume of the solid 2 Integral over a Region of Type I A plane region D is said to be of type I if it lies between the graphs of two continuous functions of x, that is, D = {(x, y) : a ≤ x ≤ b, g1 (x) ≤ y ≤ g2 (x)}, where g1 and g2 are continuous on [a, b], as shown in the figure below. In order to evaluate the y y=g2(x) D y=g1(x) x b a Figure 2: Region of Type I RR double integral D f (x, y) dA, we choose a rectangle R = [a, b] × [c, d] that contains D, as in figure 3, and we let F be the function given by (1). Then, by Fubini’s theorem we have ZZ ZZ b Z f (x, y) dA = d Z F (x, y) dA = D R y Z b Z g2 (x) F (x, y) dy dx = a c f (x, y) dy dx. a g1 (x) y=d y=g2(x) x=a x=b y=g1(x) y=c x Figure 3: Integral over Region of Type I 2 Proposition 1. If f is continuous on a type I region D such that D = {(x, y) : a ≤ x ≤ b, g1 (x) ≤ y ≤ g2 (x)}, ZZ Z b Z g2 (x) f (x, y) dy dx. then f (x, y) dA = g1 (x) a D Similarly if f is continuous on a type II region D0 such that D0 = {(x, y) : c ≤ y ≤ d, h1 (y) ≤ x ≤ h2 (y)}, Z d Z h2 (y) f (x, y) dx dy. f (x, y) dA = ZZ then D0 h1 (y) c ZZ (x + 2y) dA where D is the region bounded by the parabola y = 2x2 Example 2. Evaluate D and y = 1 + x2 . y (-1,2) (1,2) y=1+x2 D y=2x2 x Figure 4: Region bounded by parabola y = 2x2 and y = 1 + x2 Solution This is a type I region given by D = {(x, y) : −1 ≤ x ≤ 1, 2x2 ≤ y ≤ 1 + x2 }. Thus we have ZZ Z 1 Z 1+x2 (x + 2y) dA = 1 (x + 2y) dy dx = 2x2 −1 1 D Z Z = −1 1+x2 xy + y 2 y=2x2 dx x(1 + x2 ) + (1 + x2 )2 − x · 2x2 − (2x2 )2 dx −1 1 Z = (1 + x + 2x2 − x3 − 3x4 ) dx −1 1 2x3 x4 3x5 32 x2 + − − = . = x+ 2 3 4 5 −1 15 3 Z 1 Z 1 Example 3.
