Abstract

For a manifold which is moving and changing with time, consider some numerical property which at each instant is equal to an integral over the manifold. We derive a general expression for the time rate of change of this integral. Corollaries include a precise general form of Crofton's boundary theorem, de Hoff's interface displacement equations (with some new extensions) and a theorem in fluid mechanics.
