Help with Seemingly Hopeless Double Integral












12












$begingroup$


I hate to be that guy to just post an integration problem and ask how to solve it so I'll give a little relevant info



Okay, so I'm working on a physics project and my professor proposed that the following double integral could potentially solve a problem that I've used an alternative method to solve:



$$I=int_0^piint_0^rhofrac{t^2sinphileft(tcosphi-dright)}{left[t^2sin^2phi+left(tcosphi-dright)^2right]^{3/2}};dt dphi$$





  1. $rho$ is an arbitrary, strictly positive real constant


  2. $d$ is a real constant that satisfies $d>rho$


This integral's value could provide immense insight into fields of uniform, solid spherical objects, so it's actually pretty important for my work.



After some quick attempts to simplify, I decided to try some integral calculators with set values. Needless to say, the result after the first integral seemed so hopeless that I couldn't imagine simplifying and integrating again--not to mention then generalising constant inputs to their original variable form.



However, there is a strong likelihood that $I$ simplifies to one of the following two solutions:



$$text{1.This solution comes from inverse square laws}$$



$$I=frac{1}{d^2}$$



$$text{2. This solution comes from a separate computation that I did (integrals below)}$$



$$I=left(1-frac{rho^2}{5d^2}right)left[frac{3}{2rho^2}+frac{3(rho^2-d^2)}{4drho^3}lnleft(frac{d+rho}{d-rho}right)right]$$



Although it looks like these are vastly different answers, given $rho=1$ and $d=10$, you get the following outputs from $(1)$ and $(2)$:



$$1.; I=0.01$$
$$2.; Iapprox 0.01000046$$



Here's the ratio of solution (2) over (1) for $rhoin(0,1),;din(0,50)$



Solution Comparison



I tried to tackle this problem differently than my professor, and set up the following integrals to solve the problem that lead to solution $(2)$:



$$frac{9}{4rho^6}left[;intlimits_{d-rho}^{d+rho}xleft[x-frac{x^2+d^2-rho^2}{2d}right]left[frac{(x+d)^2-rho^2}{4dcdot x}right];dxright]cdotleft[;intlimits_{d-rho}^{d+rho}frac{rho^2-(x-d)^2}{2dcdot x};dxright]$$





Where you come in



If the double integral is correctly composed (which my professor felt confident with), I need someone skilled in integration to solve said double integral. I've given two possible solutions and it's probable that the answer will be one of those. If it's solution $(1)$, I know that mine will have an error and you will essentially have proved the inverse square law for gravitational and electric fields. If it's solution $(2)$, then this will be far more exciting to me but less likely. If it's neither, then there are several possible implications



BOUNTY



I'm willing to award the following bounties for solving the double integral at the beginning. Since certain solutions have stronger implications (as explained above), I'm rewarding the following bounties:




  1. +200 rep if you verify solution $(1)$

  2. +500 rep if you verify solution $(2)$

  3. +75 rep for any other solutions (note they'll have to be verified by a second user first)

    So $phiin[0,pi]$, and $tin[0,rho]$ for some ?fixed? constant $rho$? (And the first solution seems to not depend on $rho$. Unexpected, since i can take $rho=0$.) Please fix some framework for all used constants. Things seem to be important, please just fix these details for the eye of a first reader... Help will come in some seconds... (At least numerically, this is the easiest (experimental) validation when explicit choices are given.)

    @LanierFreeman I'm not sure if this is too helpful, but I think the result must depend on rho. If you call the integral $I= I(rho,d)$, then differentiate with rho, I got $I'= -2(frac{rho}{d})^{2}$, again, differentiated in rho. But this means that the original integral can't depend only on $d$, right?

    Yes this is the type of integration found in some older textbooks on electromagnetism; the aim would be to eventually calculate the magnetic moment of a "classical" spinning electron, say if its charge is uniformly distributed over a spherical volume of radius $d$.

As a mathematician, I would divide by force in the numerator and denominator by $d^3$, substitute $t/d$ by something, thus reducing to the case $d=1$. But here, let it be, we conserve the homogeneous setting as a control of the computations.





We split the numerator, compute first
$$

frac

{t^3; u}
{left[t^2-2Dt;u+D^2right]^{3/2}}; du
\
&qquadtext{ Substitution (for $u$, fixed $t$) of the radical }v=sqrt{t^2-2Dt;u+D^2} ,

.
end{aligned}
$$

Computer check for $D=2$, $rho=1$ (pari/gp code):



? D=2; r=1;
? intnum(t=0,r, intnum(s=0, Pi, t^2*sin(s)*t*cos(s) / (t^2-2*t*D*cos(s)+D^2)^(3/2) ) )
%19 = 0.030557910669552716123823807178384744388
? D*log( (D+r)/(D-r) ) - 2*r*(1+r^2/3/D^2)
%20 = 0.030557910669552716123823807178384742634
?
? D=223; r=101;

%22 = 1.9969022076015148346071622544965636670

%23 = 1.9969022076015148346071622544965636629

    Hint:



    With the change of variable $u=cosphi$, the integral on $phi$ becomes



    $$int_{-1}^1frac{t^2(tu-d)}{sqrt{(u-dt)^2+d^2(1-t^2)}}du.$$



    By decomposition of the numerator, you will get a term



    $$c(t)log((u-dt)^2+d^2(1-t^2))$$



    and another



    $$c'(t)arctanfrac{u-dt}{dsqrt{1-t^2}}.$$



    These terms do not simplify at the bounds of the integration interval.



    The integral on $t$ (cubic in $t$ at the denominator) is worse. I am not optimisitc about existence of a closed-form.

          As a mathematician, I would divide by force in the numerator and denominator by $d^3$, substitute $t/d$ by something, thus reducing to the case $d=1$. But here, let it be, we conserve the homogeneous setting as a control of the computations.

              Hint:



              With the change of variable $u=cosphi$, the integral on $phi$ becomes



              $$int_{-1}^1frac{t^2(tu-d)}{sqrt{(u-dt)^2+d^2(1-t^2)}}du.$$



              By decomposition of the numerator, you will get a term



              $$c(t)log((u-dt)^2+d^2(1-t^2))$$



              and another



              $$c'(t)arctanfrac{u-dt}{dsqrt{1-t^2}}.$$



              These terms do not simplify at the bounds of the integration interval.



              The integral on $t$ (cubic in $t$ at the denominator) is worse. I am not optimisitc about existence of a closed-form.
