Some applications of
integration
38.1

Introduction

There are a number of applications of integral calculus


in engineering. The determination of areas, mean and
r.m.s. values, volumes, centroids and second moments
of area and radius of gyration are included in this
chapter.

38.2

Areas under and between curves

When y = 0, x = 0 or (x + 2) = 0 or (x 4) = 0, i.e.
when y = 0, x = 0 or 2 or 4, which means that the
curve crosses the x-axis at 0, 2, and 4. Since the curve
is a continuous function, only one other co-ordinate
value needs to be calculated before a sketch of the
curve can be produced. When x = 1, y = 9, showing that the part of the curve between x = 0 and x = 4
is negative. A sketch of y = x 3 2x 2 8x is shown in
Fig. 38.2. (Another method of sketching Fig. 38.2 would
have been to draw up a table of values.)

Problem 2. Determine the area enclosed between


the curves y = x 2 + 1 and y = 7 x.
At the points of intersection the curves are equal. Thus,
equating the y values of each curve gives:
x2 + 1 = 7 x
x2 + x 6 = 0

from which,

Factorizing gives (x 2)(x + 3) = 0


from which x = 2 and x = 3
By rstly determining the points of intersection the
range of x-values has been found. Tables of values are
produced as shown below.

Centroids

A lamina is a thin at sheet having uniform thickness.


The centre of gravity of a lamina is the point where
it balances perfectly, i.e. the laminas centre of mass.
When dealing with an area (i.e. a lamina of negligible
thickness and mass) the term centre of area or centroid
is used for the point where the centre of gravity of a
lamina of that shape would lie.
If x and y denote the co-ordinates of the centroid C
of area A of Fig. 38.9, then:

Theorem of Pappus

If a plane area is rotated about an axis in its own plane


but not intersecting it, the volume of the solid formed is
given by the product of the area and the distance moved
by the centroid of the area.

is rotated one revolution about the x-axis between
the limits x = a and x = b, the volume V generated

38.7 Second moments of area of


regular sections
The rst moment of area about a xed axis of a lamina
of area A, perpendicular distance y from the centroid
of the lamina is dened as Ay cubic units. The second
moment of area of the same lamina as above is given
by Ay 2 , i.e. the perpendicular distance from the centroid
of the area to the xed axis is squared.

Second moments of areas are usually denoted by I and
have units of mm4 , cm4 , and so on.

The second moment of area is a quantity much used in


the theory of bending of beams, in the torsion of shafts,
and in calculations involving water planes and centres
of pressure.
The procedure to determine the second moment of
area of regular sections about a given axis is (i) to nd the
second moment of area of a typical element and (ii) to
sum all such second moments of area by integrating
between appropriate limits.
For example, the second moment of area of the rectangle shown in Fig. 38.14 about axis PP is found by
initially considering an elemental strip of width x, parallel to and distance x from axis PP. Area of shaded
strip = bx.

In Fig. 38.15, axis GG passes through the centroid C
