(b) NUMERICAL DOUBLE INTEGRALS BY TRAPEZOIDAL AND SIMPSON'S 1/3rd RULES

 

(a) Trapezoidal Rule for double integration

Consider the double integral


where xi + 1 = x; + h and yj + 1 = yi + k

Apply trapezoidal rule repeatedly to get the value of I. As follows


Apply trapezoidal rule to the inner integral, when y is a constant and x varies.


Now, apply trapezoidal rule to the two integrals. Here y varies and x1, Xi + 1 are constants.


Extension to general form of Trapezoidal rule JADIREMUM [using 1 1 idea]

Suppose, we want to evaluate , where a, b, c, d are constants. The area of integration is the rectangle in the xy plane as shown below.


Divide the area of integration (rectangle ABCD) into meshes by dividing AB into 3 equal parts (in general into m equal parts) each part length being h, and AD into 3 equal parts, (in general n equal parts) each part length being k.

Now, the integral over the whole rectangle is equal to sum of the integrals over each mesh. So, extending the formula given by (3),


I = hk / 4 [(Sum of values of ƒ at the four corners)

+ 2 (Sum of the values of ƒ at the remaining nodes on the boundary) + 4 (Sum of the values of the values of ƒ at the interior nodes)] ... (5)

 

 (b) Simpson's rule for double integration


I = hk / 9  [(Sum of the values of ƒ at the four corners)

+ 2 (Sum of the values of f at the odd positions on the boundary except the corners)

+ 4 (Sum of the values of ƒ at the even positions on the boundary)

+ {4 (Sum of the values of ƒ at odd positions)

+ 8 (Sum of the values of f at even positions) on the odd rows

of the matrix except boundary rows }

+ {8 (Sum of the values of f at the odd positions)

+ 16 (Sum of the values of ƒ at the even positions) on the even rows of the matrix}]

Solution :

Divide the range of x and y into 4 equal parts.

H = 2.42 – 4 / 4 = 0.1 and k = 1.4 – 4 / 4 = 0.1

Get the values of f (x, y) = 1/xy at nodal points.
