CHAPTER 8

APPLICATION OF INTEGRALS

In real life, integrations are used in various

flelds such as engineering. where engineers
use integrals to find the shape of building. In
Physics, used in the centre of gravity etc. In
the field of graphical representation. Where
three-dimensional models are demonstrated.

The PETRONAS TOWERS in KUALA

LUMPUR experience high forces due to wind.
Integration was used to create this design of
building.

APPLICATION OF INTEGRALS
