Numerical Integration

• Numerical technique to solve definite integrals

• Find the area under the curve f(x) from a to b

• Another way to put it is that we need to solve the following differential equation



7

Numerical Integration• Where do we use numerical techniques?

• When you can’t integrate directly• When you have a sampling of points

representing f(x) as with the experiments results

• Graphical techniques• Grid approximation• Strip approximation



8

Graphical Techniques

• Grid approximation



9

Graphical Techniques

• Strip approximation



10


• Numerical techniques• Treat integral as a summation

• Basic idea is to convert a continuous function into discrete function

• The smaller the interval, the more accurate the solution but also at more computational expense



11


• Newton-Cotes formulas• Approximate function with a series of

polynomials that are easy to integrate

• Zero-order approximation is equivalent to strip approximation

• First order approximation is equivalent to trapezoidal approximation

Trapezoidal Rule



17

Trapezoidal Rule

• Evaluate integral• Analytical solution

• Trapezoidal solution



18

Trapezoidal Rule



19

Trapezoidal Rule

• Trapezoidal solution• To increase accuracy, shorten up the interval



20

Trapezoidal Rule



21

Trapezoidal Rule

• If you split the interval into n sub-intervals, each sub-interval has a width of h = (b – a)/n



22

Trapezoidal Rule

• More accurate as you increase n• Double n and reduce the error by a factor of

four

• However, if n is too large, you will start encountering round-off error and the integral solution can diverge



23

Simpson’s Rules

• Second and third-order polynomial forms of the Newton-Cotes formulas

• Simpson’s 1/3 Rule• Use three points on the curve to form a second

order polynomial



24

Simpson’s Rules

• Approximate the function by a parabola



25

Simpson’s Rules



26

Simpson’s Rules



27

Simpson’s 1/3 Rule

• Error

• Multiple Application

• n must be even



28

Simpson’s 3/8-Rule

• Approximate with a cubic polynomial



29




30


• Error

• Multiple Application

• n must be a multiple of 3



31

32


• Both the cubic and quadratic approximations are of the same order

• The cubic approximation is slightly more accurate then the quadratic approximation

• Usually not worth the extra work required• Only use the 3/8 rule if you need odd

number of segments• Can combine with 1/3 rule on some segments



32

Example



33

Integration with unequal segments• We have until now assumed that each

segment is equal• If we are integrating based on

experimental or tabular data, this assumption may not be true

• Newton-Cotes formulas can easily be adapted to accommodate unequal segments
