Stokes' Theorem and Green's Theorem

Ғылым және технология

Stokes' theorem is an extremely powerful result in mathematical physics. It allows us to quantify how much a vector field is circulating or rotating, based on the integral of the curl.

    Me too, I hate that shitty profs are even allowed to teach. Just let them do research. Excellent profs like Dr. Steve Brunton do far more for STEM in general; Mathematics in particular, than all the pushing of STEM in the media. I majored in Applied Mathematics and Biology, and I noted how many students dropped out of the harder more challenging classes in part due to profs not giving a damn whether the students grasped the material or not. TLDR; great videos, love your stuff please keep doing what you're doing.

    Stoke's Theorem (And Green's too) were the kind of theorem I just accepted as a bizarre true of the Universe when I first met them in the undergraduate course. Nowadays I understand them a little bit better. Watching prof. Button's class reminded me I still find both theorems incredible and some how magic, almost a supernatural mathematical property of the universe. The fact integrals of both sides of the equation are equal stills amuses me.

I started to casually branch into machine learning to satiate my curiosity and was surprised how much of the math I'd learned was transferrable. Your videos have really been elucidating, and have helped me deepen my understanding greatly. You're a great educator, and I really thankful that you've decided to share your knowledge so openly.

    This series is fantastic. Since you mentioned potential flow for the next video, I would love to hear a bit about the Helmholtz decomposition and how its potentials relate to the flow of vector fields. Polthier and Preuß (2003; Identifying Vector Field Singularities Using a Discrete Hodge Decomposition) suggested a method for identifying singularities in flow fields by finding the local extrema in the Helmholtz decomposition potentials. However, I don't understand why these potentials are more informative than the local extrema in the divergence and curl of the same field?

    Although the notation gets heavier, I find Stokes Theorem, and differential forms at large much easier to contemplate when I take the initiative to control the limit implicit in the definition of an integral. Hopefully someone groks this and it strengthens their understanding! Stokes Theorem is close to my heart, as is Fourier’s.

    The mental image that Stoke's theorem conjures for me is imagining if one day, all the wind on Earth blew from the west to the east, at least along the equator. That motivates thinking of the surface integral half as a "net" or "average" curl over the surface, and in this example the "net" curl of the northern hemisphere has to sync up with all the wind on the equator blowing in the same direction. This mental image is intuitive for me in understanding the physical consequences and reasoning behind Stokes' theorem (assuming I understand it correctly hehe)

    I love this series! Just a question about the graphical intuition for the curls cancelling - it doesn't seem obvious to me that the curls in the neighbouring cells will be equal and hence cancel. I have one idea to answer my own question. These areas are infinitesimal and hence so near to each other that neighbouring curls are the same because they are essentially "in the same place". Is this correct? If not, please would you explain!

    What happens when The Fluid has curls in different direction because then they add up for example when there ist a positiv curl and left from it one with negative curl. They would add up in the middle and not cancel each other out so that greens or strokes equation are no longer useable.

    Since the equator integral represents the total “swirl” or curl in the northern hemisphere, does Stoke’s theorem mean that the total curl in the northern hemisphere always equals the total curl in the southern hemisphere? … and if a contour is confined to the border of a hurricane, then that integral says the total curl in the storm equals the total curl in the rest of the world?

    When I started watching this video I had a small headache. When I finished I had a bigger one. I guess it just seems like your are throwing away a great deal of information about the dynamics of the field by only measuring its impact on the border. When there is a hurricane approaching land, I don't really care how much its impacting the wind down in the equator; I want to know if I'm still going to have a roof on my house. Will hope further examples further explain when these aggregates are more valuable than the details of the field itself.

    I have to say that the way you draw the different curls of the boxes at 13:00 is kind of confusing. The way it's drawn suggests that the vector field changes direction at the cell boundaries. This is of course not the case in a continuous vector field. I had the same issue with the video on Gauss' divergence theorem. I think a better way to make the concept intuitive would be to say that the vector field has a certain direction at the cell boundary, and explain how this would contribute to curl of opposing sign in the two cells.

    Yeah I also felt the same...If all the curls calculated have positive direction as shown in the video,then it would all add up and no cancellation takes place...Why I think the cancellation takes place is that positive curl in one cell forces to have negative curl in the adjacent cell...I also felt the same for divergence theorem(I commented there also)

    @HD141937

    2 жыл бұрын

    @@ahammedafzal7797 Well, it's good to realise that curl/vorticity is itself a continuous vector field. That means that its component in the direction normal to S can be positive over a finite portion of S. And since the division of S into cells is arbitrary, it is possible that adjacent cells have a positive value of the integral of vorticity over their area. The value of this integral over S is equal to the sum of the integrals over the individual cells. In this sense you are right to say that the terms add up. By applying Stokes' theorem you transform the area integrals over the cells to line integrals over the cell boundaries. The cancellation applies to the line integrals over the interfaces between cells, so that only the line integral over the boundary of S remains. With this in mind, the arrows drawn in the video do not represent the vector field itself, but in some sense the values of the line integrals over each segment of cell boundary.
