Getting the area of a surface integral from Matlab

16 次查看(过去 30 天)
I'd like to approve my solution of where is the unit sphere
Therefore I want to calculate where is the parametrization of the unit sphere:
syms phi the
x = cos(phi).*sin(the);
y = sin(phi).*sin(the);
z = cos(the);
density = x.^2;
para = [x;y;z];
dphi = diff(para,phi);
dthe = diff(para,the);
c = cross(dphi,dthe);
int(int(density*norm(c),phi,0,2*pi),the,0,pi)
Like in my previous quesion I get a cryptic answere, not really any helpfull probably because norm(c) is overcomplicated
Also is there another way to approve the solution. e.g. with trapz?

See if simplifying it does what you want —
syms phi the
x = cos(phi).*sin(the);
y = sin(phi).*sin(the);
z = cos(the);
density = x.^2;
para = [x;y;z];
dphi = diff(para,phi);
dthe = diff(para,the);
c = cross(dphi,dthe);
Int2 = int(int(density*norm(c),phi,0,2*pi),the,0,pi)
Int2 = 
Int2 = simplify(Int2, 500)
Int2 = 
.

That second entry in simplify was unexpected. I should look at the documentation more extensively...

No worries!
The full documentation would likely suggest —
Int2 = simplify(Int2, 'Steps',500)
Leaving out the 'Steps' name in the name-value pair is a shortened way of specifying it. Other name-value pairs require the name to be specified as well, also if more than one are specified.
