  2. Coarea formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coarea_formula

    The formula plays a decisive role in the modern study of isoperimetric problems. For smooth functions the formula is a result in multivariate calculus which follows from a change of variables. More general forms of the formula for Lipschitz functions were first established by Herbert Federer (Federer 1959), and for BV functions by Fleming ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method

    The finite volume method (FVM) is a method for representing and evaluating partial differential equations in the form of algebraic equations. [1] In the finite volume method, volume integrals in a partial differential equation that contain a divergence term are converted to surface integrals, using the divergence theorem.

    It can also mean a triple integral within a region of a function (,,), and is usually written as: (,,).. A volume integral in cylindrical coordinates is (,,), and a volume integral in spherical coordinates (using the ISO convention for angles with as the azimuth and measured from the polar axis (see more on conventions)) has the form (,,) ⁡.

    On 7 April 1795, the metric system was formally defined in French law using six units. Three of these are related to volume: the stère (1 m 3) for volume of firewood; the litre (1 dm 3) for volumes of liquid; and the gramme, for mass—defined as the mass of one cubic centimetre of water at the temperature of melting ice.

    A molecular formula enumerates the number of atoms to reflect those in the molecule, so that the molecular formula for glucose is C 6 H 12 O 6 rather than the glucose empirical formula, which is CH 2 O. Except for the very simple substances, molecular chemical formulas generally lack needed structural information, and might even be ambiguous in ...
