    The document provides integration formulae for calculating volume and other properties of a tetrahedron. It defines a tetrahedron using the coordinates of four points relative to the centroid. It then gives the formula for calculating the tetrahedron's volume by integrating over the volume. It also lists other integration formulae for calculating the second order moments, cross products, and mixed terms of the tetrahedron when the nodes are numbered in a specific order.

    Appendix E Some integration formulae for a tetrahedron

    Let a tetrahedron be dened in the xyz coordinate system by four points (x1 , y1 , z1 ), (x2 , y2 , z2 ), (x3 , y3 , z3 ) (x4 , y4 , z4 ) with the origin of the coordinates taken at the centroid, i.e., y1 + y 2 + y 3 + y 4 z1 + z 2 + z 3 + z 4 x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 = = =0 4 4 4 Then integrating over the tetrahedron volume 1 dx dy dz = 6 1 1 1 1 x1 x2 x3 x4 y1 y2 y3 y4 z1 z2 z3 z4

    = V = tetrahedron volume

    Provided the order of numbering the nodes is as indicated on Fig. 4.18(a) then also: x dx dy dz = x 2 dx dy dz = y 2 dx dy dz = z2 dx dy dz = x y dx dy dz = y z dx dy dz = z x dx dy dz = y dx dy dz = z dx dy dz = 0

    V 2 2 2 x 2 + x2 + x3 + x4 20 1 V 2 2 2 y 2 + y2 + y3 + y4 20 1 V 2 2 2 z 2 + z2 + z3 + z4 20 1 V (x1 y1 + x2 y2 + x3 y3 + x4 y4 ) 20 V (y1 z1 + y2 z2 + y3 z3 + y4 z4 ) 20 V (z1 x1 + z2 x2 + z3 x3 + z4 x4 ) 20
