In instances of uniform density (where the density function did not vary with location and was therefore just a constant), the density constant could be moved outside of the integral. Working in each of the three coordinate directions we wind up with the following three equations. Specifically this sum will be the first, rectangular, volume moment integral for the shape. Again we will use calculus to sum up an infinite number of infinitely small volumes. We do this by summing up all the little bits of volume times the x, y, or z coordinate of that bit of volume and then dividing that sum by the total volume of the shape.
Much like the centroid calculations we did with 2D shapes, we are looking to find the shape's average coordinate in each dimension. This will be the x, y, and z coordinates of the point that is the centroid of the shape. When we find the centroid of a three dimensional shape, we will be looking for x, y, and z coordinates (x̄, ȳ, and z̄). Finding the Centroid of a Volume via the First Moment Integral The tables used in the method of composite parts however are derived via the first moment integral, so both methods ultimately rely on first moment integrals. On this page we will only discuss the first method, as the method of composite parts is discussed in a later section. We can use the method of composite parts along with centroid tables to determine the centroid or center of mass location.We can use the first moment integral to determine the centroid or center of mass location.However, we will often need to determine the centroid or center mass for other shapes and to do this we will generally use one of two methods. Just as with areas, the location of the centroid (or center of mass) for a variety of common shapes can simply be looked up in tables, such as the table provided in the right column of this website. Just as with the centroids of an area, centroids of volumes and the center of mass are useful for a number of situations in the mechanics course sequence, including the analysis of distributed forces, simplifying the analysis of gravity (which is itself a distributed force), and as an intermediate step in determining mass moments of inertia. (Centroid and Center of Mass are the same point for bodies with a uniform density) The centroid point (C) or the center of mass (G) for some common shapes. If this volume represents a part with a uniform density (like most single material parts) then the centroid will also be the center of mass, a point usually labeled as 'G'. It is often denoted as 'C', being being located at the coordinates (x̄, ȳ, z̄). The centroid of a volume can be thought of as the geometric center of that shape.
