Planar lamina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, a planar lamina is a closed surface of mass M and surface density \sigma\ (x,y) such that:

M = \int\int_{}{}\sigma\ (x,y)\,dx\,dy, over the closed surface.

Planar laminas can be used to determine moments of inertia, or center of mass.
