Integration by Parts: With Partials

[Saladsamurai]

Homework Statement

I don't know why, but the partials are really confusing me here. I need to integrate the following expression in a derivation:

I = \int_0^\delta v(x,y)\frac{\partial{u(x,y)}}{\partial{y}}\,dy \qquad(1)

Homework Equations

I am supposed to integrate by parts here. \int \mu\,d\theta = \mu\theta - \int\theta\,d\mu \qquad(2)

The Attempt at a Solution

Let

\mu = v(x,y)<br /> \Rightarrow d\mu = <br /> \frac{\partial{v}}{\partial{x}}\,dx +<br /> \frac{\partial{v}}{\partial{y}}\,dy \qquad(3)

And let

d\theta =<br /> \frac{\partial{u}}{\partial{y}}\,dy \qquad(4)

Now I am really not sure what to do with these quantities. So let me state some questions here:

I) Is this the best choice for my µ and dθ?

II) Since I have assumed that

d\theta =<br /> \frac{\partial{u}}{\partial{y}}\,dy <br /> [/tex]<br /> <br /> it looks as though I have assumed that θ=θ(y) alone. Does this help me at all? Can I now say that <br /> <br /> d\theta =&lt;br /&gt; \frac{\partial{u}}{\partial{y}}\,dy &lt;br /&gt; =\frac{d\,u}{d\,y}d\,y=\,du \qquad(5)<br /> <br /> ?

It's just like normal:

<br /> \int_{0}^{\delta}v\frac{\partial u}{\partial y}dy=\left[ uv\right]_{0}^{\delta}-\int_{0}^{\delta}u\frac{\partial v}{\partial y}dy<br />
