The generalized method of exhaustion

Anthony A. Ruffa

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2002, vol. 31, 1-7

Abstract:

The method of exhaustion is generalized to a simple integration formula that is valid for the Riemann integrable functions. Both a geometric approach (following the usual procedure for the method of exhaustion) and an independent algebraic generalization approach are provided. Applications provided as examples include use of the formula to generate new series for common functions as well as computing the group velocity distribution resulting from waves diffracted from an aperture.
